metallic, covalent and ionic Flashcards
what is a covalent bond
:A shared pair of electrons between two non-metals.
what is an ionic bond
the forming of ionic bonds is between metals and non metals
what is a metallic bond
The bonds present in metals between the positive metal ions and negatively charged electrons
between metals-positive metal ions, negative delocalised electrons
what are the 4 state symbols
aq
s
l
g
what force is in covalent bonding
intermolecular forces
what is the force in ionic bonding
electrostatic force
def. intermolecular
The forces which exist between molecules. The strength of the
intermolecular forces impact physical properties like boiling/melting point.
def. electrostatic force
The strong forces of attraction between oppositely charged ions.
what are the 3 covalent structures
simple molecules
large molecules
giant covalent
describe simple molecular (covalent)
has covalent bonds and has weak intermolecular forces of attraction
describe simple molecular (covalent)
has covalent bonds and has weak intermolecular forces of attraction
describe giant covalent
has strong covalent bonds
examples of giant covalent
graphite
diamond
silicon dioxide
graphene
examples of simple covalent
(normally gases)
halogens, cl2, I2
water, oxygen, methane, nitrogen
what is an alloy
a mixture of a metal with atoms of another element
mixture of 2 or more metals
