nonpolar bonds
what is elecroconductivity
measure of how strong bonding electrons to themselves
what is the measure of how strong bonding electrons to themselves
electroconductivity
what is the pattern of valence electrons
the closer they get the stronger they get
when are atoms more stable
when the valence shell is full
lose or gain
affected by attraction for valence electrons
how do valence electrons go up
they go up one in each row
