Molecular Conpound Flashcards
Bonds between 2 or more nonmetals
- formed when two nuclei share electrons, rather than
transfer them from one atom to another.
covalent bond
Types of Electron Domains
-nonbonding (or lone) electrons
-bonding electrons (single/double/triple bonds)
TYPES OF INTRAMOLECULAR
FORCES OF ATTRACTION
1.Ionic bonding
2. Covalent bonding
3. Metallic bonding
INTERMOLECULAR FORCES OF
ATTRACTION
- Dipole-dipole
- Hydrogen bonding
- Ion-dipole
- London dispersion
Additional: - Dipole-induced dipole force
Dipole-dipole forces exist between polar molecules. One end of a
dipole attracts the oppositely charged end of the other dipole.
DIPOLE-DIPOLE
It is a special and very strong type of dipole –
dipole force that exists between a hydrogen
atom bound to a small and highly
electronegative non-metal atom.
HYDROGEN BONDING
It acts between an ion (either positive or negative) and
a polar molecule. This explains the solubility of ionic
compounds in water, which is polar molecule.
ion-dipole force
It is the weakest type of intermolecular force.
