200
SF4
What is sulfur tetrafluoride
200
sulfur hexafluoride
What is SF6
200
shows how many atoms of each element a molecule contains, but not the exact placement.
What is a molecular formula
200
the trend on the periodic table that causes one end of a molecule to be positive and the other end to be negative, resulting in one element that has a greater pull on the electrons than the other.
What is electronegativity
200
atoms are held together by two pairs of electrons
What is double covalent bond
300
CBr4
What is carbon tetrabromide
300
sulfur trioxide
What is SO3
300
a chemical formula that shows the arrangement of atoms in a molecule
What is a structural formula
300
the attractive forces in which a hydrogen covalently bonded to a very electronegative atom is also weakly bonded to an unshared electron pair of another electronegative atom
What is a hydrogen bond
300
a bond that results when one atom contributes both bonding electrons
What is coordinate covalent bond
400
NO
What is nitrogen monoxide
400
carbon dioxide
What is CO2
400
low melting point, liquids and gases at room temperature
What are properties of molecular compounds
400
the weak intermolecular force that is caused by the motion of electrons
What are dispersion forces
400
the pair of electrons that are not located in the bonding orbital and do not participate in covalent bond
What is unshared pair/lone pair
500
SbF5
What is antimony pentafluoride
500
silicon dioxide
What is SiO2
500
a compound that results from the bonding of a non-metal to a non-metal
What is a molecular compound
500
The condition when one end of a molecule is attracted to the oppositely charged end of another molecule causing the molecules to alter the way they align themselves
What is dipole-dipole interaction
500
the theory that states that unshared pairs of electrons in a molecule will move in such a way as to get as far away as possible from each other affecting the shape of a molecule
