Explanation A bond is defined as the electrostatic force of attraction that holds the two atoms together. Sharing of electrons occur such that each combining atom achieves an octet. Sharing of electrons depends upon the number of valence electrons or the number of electrons required to complete the octet. If one pair of electron is shared between two atoms two electrons from each atom then the bond formed is called the single bond. For example, in HF , hydrogen and fluorine atom has one and seven valence electron respectively. If both of them share one electron then both will have a complete octet. The Lewis symbol and Lewis structure of hydrogen fluoride is given as, If two pairs of electrons are shared between two atoms two electrons from each atom then the bond formed is called the double bond. For example, oxygen atom has six valence electron and needs two electrons to complete its octet
