cohesion the action or property of like molecules sticking together, being mutually attractive

double covalent bond a bond in which atoms share two pairs of electrons
electronegativity the ability of an atom to attract additional electrons
electrostatic force a force in which oppositely charged particles are attracted to each other, while like charges repel each other
intermolecular forces the attractive forces acting between molecules
intramolecular bond a bond that is occuring within a molecule
ion an atom with a positive or negative charge
ionic bond a bond that occurs between atoms, through the transfer of electrons, when a positively charged atom and negatively charged atom are attracted to one another
molecule a group of atoms that have chemically bonded and behave as an individual unit
nonpolar covalent bond a bond that forms between atoms in which their electrons are shared equally
octet rule when an ion or an atom has eight valence electrons, it is at its most stable electron configuration
polar covalent bond a bond in which electrons are shared unequally between atoms
single covalent bond a bond in which atoms share only one pair of electrons
triple covalent bond A bond in which atoms share three pairs of electrons

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
