Types of Chemical Bonds Flashcards
1
Q
COVALENT BOND (FORMATION)
A
- Atoms share pairs of electrons.
-Atoms involved do not have
large differences in electronegativity.
2
Q
COVALENT BOND (POLARITY)
A
LOW
3
Q
COVALENT BOND (SHAPE)
A
FIXED/ DEFINITIVE SHAPE
4
Q
IONIC BOND (FORMATION)
A
- Electrons are transferred from one atom to another.
- Large differences in electronegativity.
- “opposites attract” Charged molecules are attracted.
5
Q
IONIC BOND (POLARITY)
A
HIGH
6
Q
IONIC BOND (SHAPE)
A
No shape in 3D
7
Q
HYDROGEN BONDS (FORMATION)
A
- More like ‘attractions’ vs true bonds.
- Involve hydrogens in polar covalent bonds.
8
Q
HYDROGEN BOND (POLARITY)
A
HIGH
9
Q
HYDROGEN BOND (SHAPE)
A
No shape in 3D/ TRANSIENT
