| chemical bonding typically produces a __________, which contains two or more different elements chemically bonded to one another | compound |
| the exception to chemical bonds producing compounds are what two groups? | diatomic elements and metals |
| name the three main forms of bonding and the smallest resulting particle from each type of bond | metallic--atoms, covalent(molecular)--molecules, ionic-- (+)/(-) ions |
| what types of elements are involved in: covalent bonding, metallic bonding, ionic bonding | nonmental/nonmetal; metal/metal; metal/nonmetal |
| what two types of bonding produce compounds? | covalent and ionic |
| _______ give electrons to ________, producing oppositely charged ions that are attracted to eachother in _______ bonding | metals, nonmetals, ionic |

| multiple bonds have _______ bond lengths and ________ bond energies | shorter, greater |
| ability of an atom to attract electrons in a covalent bond | electronegativity |
| nonmetals are (more/less) electronegative because they are trying to (gain/lose) electrons | more, gain |
