Solution
The correct option is A Single bond
Fluorine has 7 valence electrons in its outermost shell. Hence it needs one more electron to complete its octet electronic configuration. Two fluorine atoms combine together by sharing one pair of electrons in order to attain stability. Since one pair electrons are shared the bond formed is a single bond. A single bond is represented by a small line between the symbols, of the combining elements.
