Bonding Flashcards
covalent bonding
Has a pair of Electrons with opposed spin shared between two atoms with each atom giving one election
Ionic bonding
Bond formed by the electrical attraction between positive and negative ions ( Cation and anions)
coordinate bonding
Covalent bond in which both shared electrons come from one of the atoms
Attractive and repulsive forces
All bonding results from electrical attractions and repulsions between the protons in the nucleus and the electrons which with attractions are weighing repulsions
Attractive and repulsive forces and covalent bonds
Electrons in the pair between atoms repel one another but this is overcome by their attractions to BOTH nuclei.
If atoms get too close together the nuclei and their inner electrons will repel those of the other atom, so the bond has a certain length
Electrons spin must be opposite for the bonds to fall
Attractive and repulsive forces and ionic bonds
Cations and anions are arranged so that each cation is surrounded by several anions and vice versa to maximise attraction and minimise repulsion
Repulsions from inner electrons and nuclei prevent the ions from getting too close together
Electronegativity
Measure of the electron attracting power of an atom in a covalent bond
polar bond
Has one end of the bond with a slightly positive charge than the other end with a slightly negative charge
Eg. Dipole
Molecule is neutral overall
Intermolecular bonding
The weak bonding holding the molecules together
Eg. In liquids
Governs the physical properties of the substance
intramolecular bonding
Strong bonding between the atoms in the molecule and governs its chemistry
Van der waals forces
Includes all types of intermolecular forces weather dipole or induced dipole
Three types of intermolecular forces
dipole-dipole forces
Induced dipole induced dipole forces
Hydrogen bonds
Dipole to dipole forces
Polar molecules have dipoles- one end is slightly positive and the other sightly negative due to differences in electronegativities between atoms
Attraction between negative and positive regions
Dipole forces- permanent dipole
Induced dipole to induced dipole forces
Forms when the electron orbitals around a molecule are influenced by another charged particle
Hydrogen bonds
Interaction between H atom bonded to small, very electronegative elements which have lone pairs- F,O,N
They are highly electronegative and the H atom is so small, plus charge in bonded hydrogen atom is spread over small volume and it has high charge density
Highly polarising
