Any process that results in the formation of an ion
Ionization
One-half the distance from the nucleus of one atom to the nucleus of an adjacent, identical atom in a molecule
Atomic radius
The energy required to cause a gaseous atom or ion to release an electron
Ionization energy
The amount of energy involved when an electron is acquired by a neutral gaseous atom
Electron affinity
A symbolic representation of the composition of a compound using elemental symbols and numerical subscripts to show both the kinds of elements that compose the compound and the proportion of atoms of each element in the compound
Chemical formula
The distance at which attraction is greatest and potential energy is least
Bond length
A covalent in which the bonding electrons are shared equally by both atoms
Nonpolar covalent bond
A covalent in which the bonding electrons are shared unequally by both atoms
Polar covalent bond
Elements tend to react chemically to form compunds so that each atom, by gaining, losing, or sharing electrons, achieves a stable octet in its highest occupied energy level
Octet Rule
All objects within a closed system tend to move towars a state of greater stability but lower pontential energy

Periodic function
The measure of the power of an atom in a molecule to attract electrons to itself
Electronegativity
The energy required to dislodge a second electron from an atom or ion
Second Ionization Energy
