Which outcome occurs when lithium atoms bond in a molecule?

💡 Explanation

Covalent bonds form because electron delocalization during molecular orbital formation decreases the kinetic energy of shared electrons, which reduces the total molecular energy; therefore bonding occurs, rather than separate atoms because the overall energy decreases.
