What forces typically hold nonmetal atoms together within a molecule?
A. Metallic bonds
B. Covalent bonds
C lonic attractions
D Intermolecular forces

Respuesta :

Answer:

B - Covalent bonds

Explanation:

Covalent bonds are a class of chemical bonds where valence electrons are shared between two atoms, typically two nonmetals. The formation of a covalent bond allows the nonmetals to obey the octet rule and thus become more stable.
