bonding Flashcards
polar covalent bonds
electrons that are shared unequally between 2 atoms
electro-neg diff = 0.4-1.6
nonpolar covalent bonds
electrons are shared equally between 2 atoms
electro-neg diff = 0-0.3
ionic bonds
transfer of electrons from a metal to a nonmetal
electro-neg diff = above 1.7

how can you tell a molecule is nonpolar?
it has a symmetrical charge distribution
how can you tell a molecule is polar?
it has an asymmetrical charge distribution
do polyatomic ion dot diagrams have brackets surrounding them?
yes !!!
what is an iconic bond made of?
a metal and a nonmetal
what is a covalent bond made of?
two nonmetals
how do you draw a substance that contains both covalent and ionic bonds?
the polyatomic ion goes in brackets and the metal is written outside of the brackets
what is sigma bonding?
a bond formed by the direct or end to end overlap of atomic orbitals on the bond axis
what is a pi bond?
a bond formed by the sideways overlap of 2p orbitals above and below the bond axis
how many sigma and pi bonds does a double bond have?
1 sigma, 1 pi
how many sigma and pi bonds do triple bonds have?
1 sigma, 2 pi
when a bond is formed, energy isβ¦
released
when a bond is broken, energy isβ¦
absorbed
