The word "covalent" in example sentences

Strong Bonds That Make Molecules A second kind of chemical bond, called covalent from the Latin, “of equal power”, produces stable molecules. ❋ Harold McGee (2004)

The bond which above all others had prevented a general application of the Berzelius theory is now commonly known as the covalent bond. ❋ Unknown (1964)

Dichtel's strategy uses organic dye molecules assembled into a structure known as a covalent organic framework (COF). ❋ Unknown (2010)

Chemistry Postdoctoral Fellow at Cornell, employed a strategy that uses organic dye molecules assembled into a structure known as a covalent organic framework (COF). ❋ Unknown (2010)

Scripps University researchers have developed a "covalent" immunization method that allows for near-instantaneous immunity ❋ Unknown (2009)

It usually achieves its valence shell octet of electrons by 'covalent' bonding, sharing electrons with other atoms, often with one or more other carbon atoms and one or more atoms of different elements also behaving as if they wanted to fill their own valence shells. ❋ Unknown (2009)

The two types of atoms bond together into a single structure by sharing the unpaired electrons in the outermost electron shells surrounding their nuclei - i.e., by 'covalent' bonds. ❋ Unknown (2008)

Two disparate metals, in the presence of moisture will create this type of galvanic action unless that action is prevented via a covalent bond at the subatomic level or by galvanizing one or both metals. ❋ Unknown (2009)

JimmyP, the reason copper clad stainless steel pots and pans don't show signs of the pitting that's associated with copper residue in rifle bores is because the copper on the pots and pans are clad together at the subatomic level - the electrons between the two metals are already stabilized through a (covalent) bonding process. ❋ Unknown (2009)

Another step in the application of the electronic structure of atoms to chemistry was taken in 1916, when Gilbert Newton Lewis suggested that strong (covalent) bonds between atoms involve a sharing of two electrons between these atoms (electron-pair bond). ❋ Unknown (2010)

It turns out that particular molecules found in blue jeans and some ink dyes can be used in a process for assembling a structure called "covalent organic framework" or COF, which can help create cheaper, flexible solar cells. ❋ Unknown (2010)

In my theory there is no byproduct - nature oscillates between the desired diatomic state and molecular disassociation when the new high mobility molecule finds its covalent bond opposed by the individual atoms still trying to transition to different fractional states (relativistic). ❋ Unknown (2010)
