   Fig. 5.1	Electron sharing can occur only when electron orbitals from two
       different atoms overlap. |

   Fig. 5.2	The number of covalent bonds formed by a nonmetallic element is
       directly correlated with the number of electrons it must share in order
       to obtain an octet of electrons. |

   Fig. 5.3   (a) A “regular”
       covalent single bond is the result of overlap of two half-filled
       orbitals. (b) A coordinate covalent single bond is the result of overlap
       of a filled and a vacant orbital. |

       work on the nature of the chemical bond. |

   Fig. 5.12	(a) In the nonpolar covalent bond present, there is a symmetrical
       distribution of electron density. (b) In the polar covalent bond
       present, electron density is displaced because of its electronegativity. |
