Exemplar Problems
Problem 1 : Explain the formation of a covalent bond in a hydrogen molecule (H₂). Use Lewis dot structures to represent the bonding.
Solution :
The formation of H₂ involves two hydrogen atoms sharing their valence electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. The Lewis dot structure for H₂ shows two hydrogen atoms connected by a single covalent bond, with each hydrogen atom contributing one electron.
