(23 cards)
What is Chemical Structure?
The arrangements of atoms in a substance.
What is a chemical bond?
The attractive force that holds atoms and ions together.
What is the Bond Length?
The average distance between the nuclei of two bonded atoms.
What is a Bond Angle?
The angle formed by two bonds to the same atom.
What is a Ionic Binds?
A bond formed by the attraction between oppositely charged ions.
What is a Metallic Bond?
A bond formed by the attraction between positively charged metal ions and the electrons around them.
What is a Covalent Bonds?
A bond formed when atoms share one or more pairs of electrons.
What is a Polyatomic Ion?
An ion made of two or more atoms.
What is a Nonpolar covalent bonds?
Electrons are equally attracted to the positive nucleus of each atom.
What is a Polar Covalent Bonds?
The shared electrons are attached to the nucleus of one atom more than the other.
What is Empirical Formula?
The composition of a compound in terms of the relative numbers and kinds of atoms in the simplest ratio.
What is a Molecular Formula?
A chemical formula that shows the number and kinds of atoms in a molecule but not the arrangement of atoms.
What is Organic Compound?

What is a amino acid?
Any one of 20 different organic molecules that contain a carboxyl and an amino group and tha combine to form proteins.
What is a hydrocarbon?
A compound that is made of only carbon and hydrogen atoms.
What is a polymer
