Covalent Bonding Of Hydrogen, Oxygen & Nitrogen

This video tutorial covers the octet rule and how to construct dot and cross diagrams to illustrate covalent bonding in hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen. It explains how hydrogen atoms share electrons to mimic helium's electron configuration, how oxygen atoms form double bonds to fulfill the octet rule, and how nitrogen atoms create triple bonds. The video emphasizes the importance of electron pairing and spacing in diagrams.

What is a double bond and how is it formed between oxygen atoms?

Describe the concept of a triple bond in nitrogen atoms and its relation to the octet rule.
