Which statement below is true?Hint: Consider how properties of a covalent bond are measured.
A) The two electrons in a single covalent bond must be paired as required by the Pauli exclusion principle.
B) One mole of hydrogen atoms is more stable than one mole of hydrogen molecules.
C) The buildup of electron density between two atoms repels each nucleus, making them less stable.
D) The bond energy is the minimum energy required to bring about pairing of the electrons in a covalent bond.
E) As the distance between the nuclei decreases when forming a covalent bond, there is a corresponding decrease in the probability of finding both electrons near either nucleus.
