Bonding models Flashcards
what are the properties of a covalent bond
high melting/ boiling points
insoluble in water
most don’t conduct electricty
what are the properties of an ionic bond
high melting/ boiling point
many are soluble in water
conduct liquid when a liquid but no a solid
what are the properties of a simple molecular
low melting and boiling points
most do not conduct electricity
a few are soluble in water
what are the properties of metallic bonding
high melting/ boiling points
insoluble in water
conduct electricity when solid or liquid
what is metallic bonding
they are the electrostatic attraction between positive metal ions and negative delocalized electrons
found in all metals
what is ionic bonding
ionic bonding is formed by a loss or gain of electrons to produce oppositely charged ions which attract one another
what is giant covalent
covalent bonds when atoms share electrons
what is simple molecular
covalent bonds formed when atoms share pairs of electrons
where is ionic bonding found
most compounds containing a metal and a non-metal
where is giant covalent found
in a few non-metals and some metals
where is simple molecular found
most non-metals elements and compounds
where is metallic bonding found
in all metals
