bondings + polarizations Flashcards
what are the three types of bondings?
covalent bondings
ionic bondings
metallic bondings
what is the meaning of a covalent bond?
strong electrostatic attraction between a shared paired of electrons and the nuclei of the bonded atoms, usually occurring between 2 non-metals
what is the meaning of an ionic bond?
the strong electrostatic force of attraction between oppositely charged ions formed by electron transfer
what is the meaning of a metallic bond?
the electrostatic force of attraction between the positive metal ions and the delocalized electrons
differences between intermolecular and intramolecular forces
intermolecular - forces between the molecules + stronger than inter
intramolecular - forces within a molecule
what are the types of covalent bonds
dative covalent
single covalent
multiple covalent
what is ionization energy
a measure of the energy required to completely remove and electron from an atom of an element to form an ion
what is a dative covalent bond
one atom donates both of the electrons in the covalent bond
what are the structures of covalent compounds
simple molecular
giant lattice
properties of simple molecular substances
- weak intermolecular forces between the molecules
- low melting and boiling pt
- soluble in non-polar solvents
- non-conductor of electricity
properties of a giant lattice
- strong covalent bonds throughout the structure
- high melting and boiling point
- insoluble in non-polar and polar solvents (not disrupted by either type of solvents)
- non-conductors of electricity (except graphite)
which giant covalent molecule can conduct electricity and why?
graphite, this is because, between the layers of the lattice, the delocalized electrons can move so when voltage is applied, these electrons can move freely parallel to the layers
types of giant covalent substances
Diamond
graphite
silica (silicon dioxide)
factors affecting the strength of metallic bonding
number of protons
number of delocalized electrons
size of ion
how does the number of protons affect the strength of metallic bonding?
the more protons, the stronger the bond
how does the number of delocalized electrons per atom affect the strength of metallic bonding?
the more delocalized electrons are, the stronger the bond
how does the size of an ion affect the strength of metallic bonding?
the smaller the ion, the stronger the bond as it is a shorter distance
