Covalent radius is defined as the radius of an atom which is under a covalent bond with another atom. Measuring the bond lengths of covalently bonded atoms is another way of measuring covalent radius. Covalent radius is half of the bond length when two same kinds of atoms are bonded. In some molecules of chlorine and oxygen, covalent radius can be measured easily by measuring half of the bond length. Covalent can be naturally defined as half of the internuclear distance between two bonded atoms.
