Chemical Bonding

TermDefinition
Chemical Bond the attractive force that holds atmos or ions together
Ionic bond a force that attracts electrons and transforms a neutral atom into a ion
Covalent bond a bond formed when atoms share
Nonpolar covalent bond bonding electrons are equally attracted
Polar covalent bond a pair of electrons is held closely
Molecule the smallest union that keeps all of the physical and chemical properties
Molecular compound simplest units of molecules
Chemical Formula chemical symbols and numbers
Molecular Formula shows the numbers and kids of atoms in a molecule
Bond energy energy required to break the bonds in 1 mol
Electron dot notation electron configuration in which only the valence electrons are shown
Lewis structure electrons are represented by dots; dot pairs or dashes
Single Bond two atoms share one pair of electrons
Multiple Bond atoms share more than one pair of electrons such as double bond or triple bond
Resonance Bonding that cannot be correctly represented by a single Lewis structure
Ionic compound Composed of ions bound together
Structural formula indicates the location of the atoms relative to one another in a molecule
Formula Unit collection of atoms corresponding to a ionic compounds formula
Lattice energy energy associated with constructing a crystal lattice
Polyatomic ion Ion made of two or more atoms
Metallic bond attraction between positively charged metal ions
Malleability hammered or beaten into a sheet
Ductility drawn out into a wire
VSEPR theory predicts some molecular shapes based on the idea that pairs of valence electrons repel each other
Hybridization mixing of two or more atomic orbitals
Hybrid orbitals Orbitals that have properties that contain both positively and negatively charged regions
Hydrogen bond occurring when a hydrogen atom that is bounded to a highly electronegative atom of one molecule
London dispersion force resulting from the uneven distribution 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.
