Chemical Bonding 

Covalent bond
Covalent bond was first proposed by Lewis in 1916. The bond formed between the two atoms by mutual sharing of electrons so as to complete their octets or duplets (in case of elements having only one shell) is called covalent bond or covalent linkage. A covalent bond between two similar atoms is a non-polar covalent bond while it is polar between two different atom having different electronegativities. A covalent bond may be single, double or a triple bond. We explain covalent bond formation by Lewis octet rule.

(ii) Diamond, Carborandum (SiC), Silica (SiO2), AlN, etc. have giant three-dimensional network structures; therefore have exceptionally high melting points otherwise these compounds have relatively low melting and boiling points.
(iii) In general covalent substances is a bad conductor of electricity. Polar covalent compounds like HCl in solution conduct electricity. Graphite can conduct electricity in solid state since electrons can pass from one layer to the other.
(iv) These compounds are generally insoluble in polar solvent like water but soluble in non-polar solvents like benzene etc. some covalent compounds like alcohol, dissolve in water due to hydrogen bonding.
(v) The covalent bond is rigid and directional. These compounds, thus show isomerism (structural and space).
(vi) Covalent substances show molecular reactions. The reaction rates are usually low.
(vii) The number of electrons contributed by an atom of the element for sharing with other atoms is called the covalency  of the element. Covalency = 8 – [Number of the group to which element belongs]. The variable covalency of an element is equal to the total number of unpaired electrons in s, p, and d-orbitals of its valency shell.
