Bonding Flashcards
What are the three types of bonding
Covalent,Metallic,Ionic
Where would you see ionic bonding?
Metals and non metals
Does ionic bonding conduct electricity
No
Ionic bonding:In solids how are the ions shaped
Fixed positions
Ionic bonding:In liquids how are the ions shaped
Free to move
What kind of force is in ionic bonding
Strong electrostatic forces which require lots of energy to overcome
Where would you see simple Covalent bonding
Non metals and non metals
What properties do simple covalent bonding have
Low melting and low boiling points
Simple covalent Do they conduct electricity
They do not
What are the intermolecular forces in simple covalent bonding
Weak and the molecules are neutral
Where would you see giant covalent bonding
Non metals and non metals
What are the properties of giant covalent bonding
High melting and high boiling points
Does giant covalent bonding conduct electricity
They do not apart from graphite
What kind of bonds is giant covalent bonding
Strong covalent bonds
Diamond/silica explanation
There are no free moving electrons
Graphite explanation
There are free moving electrons which can carry charge
What is the structure of metallic bonding
Positive ions and delocalised electrons in the outer shell
Where would you see metallic bonding
Metals and Metals
What are the properties of metallic bonding
High melting and boiling points
Does metallic bonding conduct electricity
Yes and they are malleable
Explanation of metallic bonding
They have strong electrostatic forces between positive ions and delocalised sea of electrons require lots of energy to overcome
What can the layers do in metallic bonding
They can slide
What are the electrons able to do
Above to move and carry the charge
