Answer: When a pair of electrons is shared equally between two atoms, the bond formed is called a: pure covalent bond.

I have used the word pure to enphatize that the pair of electrons is shared equally. Some, bonds share the electrons unequally, yet they are covalent but they are polar. When the pair is shared equally the bond is purely covalent.

Also, you must know that covalent bonds may be single (one pair of electrons is shared), double (two pair of electrons are shared) or triple (three pair of electrons are shared).
