| Wow! You don't remember anything? Think hard. | |
|
| Um.... You form covalent bonds when two atoms sgare a pair of valence electrons. Attractions between the shared electrons and the protons in each nucleus hold the atoms together in a covalent bond. | |
|

|
|
|
|
| That is correct. When naming covalent bonds the second atom has suffixes in the beginning, what are these suffixes? | |
|
| These suffixes are mono, di, tri, tetra, penta, hexta, hepta, octa, nona, and deca. | |
