Ionic Solids Atoms
Atoms are metals and nonmetals
Attractive Forces: Ionic Bonds
Molecular Solids Atoms
All atoms are nonmetals
Attractive Forces: Intermolecular Forces
Network Covalent Solids Atoms
All atoms are nonmetals
Attractive Forces: Covalent Bonds
Metallic Solids Atoms
All atoms are metals
Attractive Forces: Metallic Bonds
Metallic Solids
Metallic atoms with very loose electrons for a lattice of nuclei held together by a sea of electrons, or metallic bonds.
Molecular Solids
Nonmetal atoms form molecules with covalent bonds. The molecules are held together in a solid by intermolecular forces of attraction.
Ionic Solids
Metal and nonmetal atoms form a lattice of alternating positive and negative ions held together by ionic bonds.
Network Covalent Solids
Nonmetal atoms form a lattice structure held together with covalent bonds.
