SHORT ANSWER
68.ANS:
Atoms form chemical bonds to establish a more-stable arrangement. As independent particles, they are at high potential energy. By bonding, they decrease their potential energy, thus becoming more stable.
DIF:IIREF:1OBJ:2
69.ANS:
Atoms in a molecular compound share electrons to achieve stability. Atoms in an ionic compound gain or lose electrons to form ions, which combine so that the number of positive and negative charges is equal.
