What is Covalent radius?

Covalent bond distance, covalent radius, and van der Waals radius are used to describe the size and distance between atoms. Covalent bond distance refers to the distance between the nuclei of two bonded atoms. Covalent radius is half of the internuclear separation between the nuclei of two single-bonded atoms of the same species (homonuclear).

How to Calculate Covalent radius?

Covalent radius calculator uses Covalent Radius = Distance between Covalent Atoms/2 to calculate the Covalent Radius, The Covalent radius formula is defined as a measure of the size of an atom that forms part of one covalent bond. Covalent Radius is denoted by r_cov symbol.

How to calculate Covalent radius using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Covalent radius, enter Distance between Covalent Atoms (d_cb) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Covalent radius calculation can be explained with given input values -> 5.4E+10 = 1.076E-09/2.
