chapter 3 Flashcards
ionic bonding
ion arranged in a giant ionic lattice
covalent bond
pair of electrons shared between the atom bonding together
dative covalent bond
covalent bond that forms when both of the bonding electrons are provided by the same atom
Macromolecular compounds
atom join together by many strong covalent bonds in a giant lattice
Metallic Bonding
strong electrostatic attraction that occurs between delocalized outer shell electrons and positive metal ions
electronegativity
the ability of an atom to attract a pair of electrons in a covalent bond
non-polar bonds
occurs when atoms have equal electronegativities so electrons are equally attracted to both nuclei
polar bonds
covalent bonds are polarised by differences in electronegativity
intermolecular force
- van der waals
- permanent dipole
- hydrogen bond
van der waals
happens in all chemical
permanent dipole
the attraction between polar molecules only
hydrogen bond
- strongest intermolecular force
- H bond with N, O, F only
