A coordinate bond is a dative bond. Which of the following is true?

A

Three atoms form bond by sharing their electrons.

B

Two atoms form bond by sharing their electrons.

C

Two atoms form bond and one of them provides both electrons.

D

Two atoms form bond by sharing electrons obtained from the third atom.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
During the formation of a coordinate covalent bond between two atoms, only one of the atoms (called donor atom) provides both the electrons for sharing. The other atom (called the acceptor) provides none.
