Bonding And IMF Flashcards
Molar mass
Mass in grams of one mole of that substance
Electronegativity
A measure of the tendency of an atom to attract a bonding pair of electrons
Intramolecular bond
A bond which occurs between atoms within molecules
Ionic bond
The transfer of electrons and the subsequent electrostatic attraction
Covalent bond
The sharing of at least one pair of electrons by two non-metal atoms
Non-polar covalent bond
An equal sharing of electrons
Polar covalent bond
The unequal sharing of electrons leading to a dipole forming. This is the result of a difference in electronegativity between atoms
Metallic bond
The bond between a positive kernel and a sea of delocalized electrons
Intermolecular force
A weak force of attraction between molecules, ions, or atoms of noble gases
Kinetic energy
The energy an object has as a result of the objects motion
Kinetic molecular theory
All matter consists of small particles which move continuously
Temperature
A measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles of which matter consists
