Chemical Bonds

Types of Chemical Bonds table 2.3

TermDefinition
Ionic Bond Relatively weak attraction between an atom and a cation. easily disrupted in water, as when alt dissolves.
Covalent Bond Sharing of one or more pairs of electrons between nuclei.
Single Covalent Bond Sharing of one electron pair.
Double covalent Bond Sharing of two electron pairs. Often occurs between carbon atoms, between carbon and oxygen and between carbon and nitrogen.
Nonpolar covalent Bond Covalent bond in which electrons are equally attracted to both nuclei. May be single or double. Strongest type of chemical bond.
Polar covalent Covalent bond in which electrons are more attracted to one nucleus than to the other, resulting in slightly positive and negative region in one molecule. May be single or double.
Hydrogen Bond Weak attraction between polarized molecule or between polarized regions of the same molecule. Important in the three-dimensional folding and coiling of large molecule. Easily disrupted by temperature and pH changes.
Van der Waals Force Weak, brief attraction due to random disturbances in the electron clouds of adjacent atoms. Weakest of all bonds.
