In a covalent bond, what holds atoms together? a. electrons that are shared between atoms b. protons that are transferred from one atom to another c. a “sea of electrons” around many atoms d. electrons that are transferred from one atom to another. explain bc my assignment requires me to explain

In a covalent bond, there's a chemical bond between two nonmetal atoms. covalent bonds shares electrons, so this means that A. is the only answer, I assume.

"hydrogen bonding is the attraction of h atoms in the water molecule (slight + charge) to o atoms in a neighboring water molecule (slight - charge); it is a weak interatomic force. but it is still strong enough to the water molecules "stick" together."
