| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| tetrahedral | 109.5 |
| if a bond is nonpolar | molecule is nonpolar |
| vsepr theory | determines shape of molecules based on electron repulsion |
| structural formula | show number and relative positions of atoms |
| 7 | hepta |
| 5 | penta |
| 1 | mono |
| covalent bonds are made up of | nonmetals and nonmetals |
| molecule | formed when 3 or more atoms bond covalently |
| covalent bond | bond formed by sharing 2 electrons |
| ionic bonds | metal and nonmetal |
| trigonal planar | 120 |
| pyramidal | 107.3 |
| bent | 104.5 |
| metallic bonds | bonds between atoms of a metal |
| delocalized electrons allows metal to | conduct electricity and be malleable |
| if bond is polar and molecule is not symmetrical (bent or pyramidal) | polar |
| if bond is polar and molecule is symmetrical (tetra or linear) | nonpolar |
| polar bond electronegativity | .4 - 1.7 |
| polar bond charges | exist |
| polar bonds | electrons shared unequally |
| nonpolar electronegativity | .4 or less |
| non polar bond charges | dont exist |
| non polar bonds | electrons shared equally |
| tripple bond | 2 pi 1 sigma |
| double bond | 1 pi 1 sigma |
| resonance | occurs when more than 1 structural formula can be written for a molecule |
