2.2- covalent model

Question 1

covalent bonding

Answer 1

electrostatic attraction between a shared pair of electrons and positively charged nuclei

Question 2

whats the definition of the covalent bond iself

Answer 2

electrostatic attraction of the positive nucleii for the region of negatively charged jigh electron density

Question 3

whats the region of high electron density

Answer 3

space between the atoms where a pair of electrons are shared

Question 4

atoms forming a covalent bond will achieve a lower energy state by…

Answer 4

sharing electrons and have a full valence shell. This can be doen by either forming single double or triple bond

Question 5

octet rule

Answer 5

filling of the valence shell to achieve 8 electrons, this rule can in certain circumstances be broken

Question 6

electronegativity

Answer 6

relative measure of attraction of an atom for a pair of electrons (in a covalent bond)

Question 7

effective nucleus charge determines

Answer 7

electronegativity and ionization energy

Question 8

Answer 8

the one with the lines

Question 9

lewis diagram

Answer 9

one with the dots
