User: How do atoms achieve noble-gas electron configurations in single covalent bonds? a. One atom completely loses two electrons to the other atom in the bond. b. Two atoms share two pairs of electrons. c. Two atoms share two electrons. d. Two atoms share one electron.

Weegy: eg HCl one electron from each atom is SHARED in a covalent bond. So in this case one from H and one from Cl. The shared electrons are held between the atoms and counted when counting around the outer orbit .. [ so H effectively has 2 electrons [ ES of He] and Cl has 18 [ES of Ar]. You should be able to see this shown in the covalent bonding diagrams in any chemistry textbook at your level. ]
