When two hydrogen atoms approach each other to form a chemical bond, different interactions occur between the atoms. Identify the correct statements with respect to the interactions involved in the formation of chemical bonds.

-When two atoms of H approach each other, the two nuclei repel each other.

-When two atoms of H approach each other, each electron is attracted by the other nucleus.

 The element  that is most  likely  to form covalent  bonds  with  carbon (C)  is

Selenium  (Se)

Explanation

Covalent  bond is  formed   when  there is sharing of electrons among  two   or more non metals.

Both carbon  and selenium are non metals  therefore they  react to form  a covalent  bond  by sharing electron.

 Despite  krypton been a non metal  it does  not form a covalent  bond with carbon since krypton is  inert ( non reactive).

Beryllium (Be)  and  sodium (Na) are  metals therefore  they form  ionic bond with  carbon instead  of covalent  bond.
