chemical bonding Flashcards
lasting attraction between atoms, ions, molecules that enables the formation of chemical compounds
chemical bond
transferring of electrons
ionic bonding
sharing of electrons
covalent bonding
occurs between a nonmetal and metal
ionic bonding
the focus of chemical bonding
electrons
elements that are an exception to the octet rule
aluminum
phosphorus
sulfur
xenon
hydrogen and helium- follows the duet rule
bonding formed between 2 nonmetals
covalent bonds
unequal sharing of electrons
polar covalent bonding
bond between two identical atoms (n2, o2, h2)
nonpolar covalent bonding
difference of 0.0-0.3
non-polar bond
difference of 0.3-1.7
polar bond
difference of 1.7 or more
