When two nitrogen atoms bond together in N2, what type of covalent bond do they form? A double bond, because they overlap orbitals to share two electrons.
A double bond, because they overlap orbitals to share two pairs of electrons.
A triple bond, because they overlap orbitals to share three electrons.
O A triple bond, because they overlap orbitals to share three pairs of electrons.

A triple bond, because they overlap orbitals to share three pairs of electrons.

Explanation:

hey there,

< Draw out the Lewis diagram. You will notice there are 3 bonds, and a pair of electrons left on each nitrogen. The amount of electrons being shared between them would now be 6. Here is how it would actually look like:

Hope this helped! Feel free to ask anything else.

the correct answer would be d. hope this !

oxygen, selenium, tellurium, and polonium.
