What are the three main types of bonding
Covalent Bond (Molecular Bond), Ionic Bond (Electrovalent Bond), and Metallic Bond
When two non metals bond, they usually form a…
Covalent Bond (Molecular Bond)
When a metal and Nonmetal bond, they usually form a…
Ionic Bond (Electrovalent Bond)
When two metals bond, they form a…
Metallic Bond
Define Electronegativity.
The ability of an atom to attract electrons
Define Electron Affinity.
The ability of an atom to accept one or more electrons
The octet rule states that…
An element in a bond is the most stable with 8 valence electrons.
(Exceptions: Hydrogen,)
This type of bond is where two elements share their valence electrons (electron pairs).
Covalent Bond (Molecular Bond)
This type of bond is where an atom transfers all of their valence electrons to another atom.
Ionic Bond (Electrovalent Bond)
Determine the chemical bond described.
All the atoms in a piece of _ share a big pool of electrons (sea of electrons)
Metallic Bonding
This bond is formed when the electronegative difference of two elements is more than 2.0 units.
Ionic Bond (Electrovalent Bond)
This bond is formed when the electronegative difference of two elements is LESS than 2.0 units.
Covalent Bond (Molecular Bond)
The three bond orders mentioned [in the book] are…
Single Bond
Double Bond
Triple Bond
