Unit 4 - Bondinh, Structure, And Material Properties Flashcards
Polar and non-polar molecules
Non polar: fairly even distribution of electrons around the entire molecule
Polar: have an uneven distribution of electrons around the molecule
Van der waal
Dispersion also force caused by the motion of electrons
Weakest of all intermolecular forces
Hydrogen bonding
Is the attraction between a hydrogen atom of a molecule to a lone pair of electrons in another molecule
Occurs in molecules containing F, N2 or O2
Strongest force
Ionic solid
Positive and negative ions held together by electrostatic attractions
High melting point
Brittle
Conducts electricity as liquid but not solid
e.g. NaCl
Metallic solid
Formed by metal atoms
Uniform
Malleable
Conductive
Network covalent
Crystals/diamonds
High melting point
Not brittle or malleable
Not conductive
Very solid, strong, and hard
