Chemical Bonding
Question | Answer |
---|---|
Compound | a substance that made up of two or more different elements combined together |
Octet Rule | Octet Rule states that when bonding occurs, atoms tend to reach an electron arrangement with eight electrons in the outermost shell. |
Ion | Ion is a charged atom or group of atoms. |
Ionic Bond | Ionic bond is the force of atttraction between oppositely charged ions in a compound |
Transition Metals | Transition metal is one that forms at least one ion with a partially filled d sublevel. |
Molecular | Molecule is a group of atoms joined together. It is the smallest particle of an element or compound that can exist independently. |
Valency | Valency of an element is defined as the number of atoms of hydrogen or any other monovalent element with which each atom of the element combines. |
Electronegativity | Electronegativity is the relative attraction that an atom in a molecule has for the shared pair of electrons in a covalent bond. |
Vaan der walls | Forces are weak attractive forces between molecules resulting from the formation |
Dipole-dipole | Forces are forces of attraction between the negative pole of one molecule and the positive pole of another |
Hydrogen Bonds | particular types of dipole-dipole attractions between molecule in which the hydrogen atoms are bonded |
