    High School Understanding Covalent Bonds: Why Do They Hold Molecules Together?

    Also, will the two nuclei then be the same distance (on average) from the shared electron?

    Thanks so much! I was quite puzzled. Do you know if covalent theory is accepted by most quantum physicists?

    High School Understanding Covalent Bonds: Why Do They Hold Molecules Together?
