What drives an atom to form a covalent bond: its nuclear charge or the need to have a filled outer shell?

its nuclear charge

What it the main difference between an ion and covalent bond?

one is the sharing of a pair of electrons, the other is the transfer of at least one electron

What property of alloys make them ideal for developing new materials?

the chatacteristics of the material change depending on how much of each component is present

The neon atom tends NOT to gain any additional electrons because
