This type of bond occurs between a metal and nonmetal
ionic bond
This type of bond occurs between a nonmetal and a nonmetal
covalent
This type of bond occurs between a metal and a metal
metallic bond
Where are the metals located at on the periodic table?
To the left of the zig zag line
Where are the nonmetals located at on the periodic table?
To the right of the zig zag line
What is the communal sharing of valence electrons among several atoms called?
Electron potluck
What is the strongest kind of bond?
Ionic bonding
What are the properties of ionic compounds?
- Strong attractive force
- High melting/boiling points
- Usually soluble in water
- Form electrolytic solutions
- Brittle
- Have definite crystal structures
What are the properties of covalent compounds?
- Weaker bonds than ionic
- Lower melting and boiling points
- Varying states of matter
- Usually insoluble in water
- Generally not conductors
- More covalent that ionic compounds
What is a non-polar covalent bond?
- Electron pair shared equally between the atoms
- Similar or identical atoms
- Electrons spread evenly between atoms
What is a polar covalent bond?
- Electron pair shared unequally between atoms
* One atom hogs all the electrons
Where do partial charges occur?
In polar bonds
- One atom is partially negative and one is partially positive
- Higher electronegativity = hogs electrons = partially negative
- Lower electronegativity = gets electrons “robbed” = partially positive
