GEN CHEM PART 2 Flashcards
are forces of attraction that exist between a positive ion and a negative ion or between molecules.
Chemical Bonds
It is an atom other than hydrogen tends to form bonds until it is surrounded by eight electrons.
Octet Rule
He stated that atoms combine to achieve a more stable electron configuration.
Gilbert Lewis
Maximum stability results when an atom is ______ with a noble gas.
Isoelectric
Ionic Bond aka
electrovalent bond
It is the electrostatic force that holds
ions together in an ionic compound
Ionic Bond
It is formed by the transfer of electrons from an atom of low ionization energy (alkali and alkaline earth metal) to a more electronegative element (halogen and oxygen)
Ionic Bond
It is a bond in which two electrons are shared between atoms
Covalent Bond
It is formed when electrons are shared equally between two atoms with the same or almost the same electronegativity
Covalent compounds
A pairs of valence electrons that are not involve in covalent bond formation
Lone pairs
This is formed from sharing of electrons between two atoms with different electronegativity.
Polar Covalent Bond
It is the ability of an atom to attract toward itself the electrons in a chemical bond.
Electronegativity
It is the property that helps us distinguish a nonpolar covalent bond from a polar covalent bond
ELECTRONEGATIVITY
Atoms can form multiple covalent bonds
Multiple bond
It is the two atoms are held together by
one electron pair
Single Bond
It is two atoms share two pairs of
electrons
Double Bond
It is two atoms share three pairs of
electrons
Triple Bond
A bond formed wherein one furnishes both the bonding pair of electrons.
Coordinate Covalent Bond
