Chemistry Chapter 6 Flashcards
(84 cards)
mutual electrical attraction between the nuclei and valence electrons of different atoms that binds the atoms together
chemical bond
what are the types of chemical bonds
ionic and covalent
what does an ionic bond do
give and take electrons
what does an ionic bond do
share electrons
formed by the transfer of one or more electrons which result in the formation of positive and negative ions which are then attracted to each other
ionic bond
results from the simultaneous attraction of 2 nuclei for the same electrons resulting in the sharing of the electrons
covalent bonds
what is a polar bond?
unequal sharing of electron
what is nonpolar bond?
equal sharing of electrons
how do you predict bond type
use electronegativity difference of the atoms
has the electronegativity difference >1.7
ionic
has the electronegativity difference between 0.3 and 1.7
polar
has the electronegativity difference
nonpolar
