Expert Answer:
A covalent bond or molecular bond is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms.
These electron pairs are known as shared pairs or bonding pairs.
The stable balance of attractive and repulsive forces between the bonding atoms, when they share electrons, is known as covalent bonding.

- Is fullerne a good conductor of electricity? Some people said that, "its structure resembles to that of the graphite thus it is good conductor of electricity." But, Some said that, "Fullerne do not have layered structure like graphit and that is why free electrons do not jump and move easily . Thus, Fullerene is a bad conductor of electricity/ insulator. " So I am confused which is correct. Please solve my doubt.
