What kind of bond holds together molecules?
COVALENT
N2O4
dinitrogen tetroxide
dinitrogen pentoxide
N2O5
The number of unshared pairs on an atom of nitrogen.
1
The presence of a central unshared pair or uneven electronegativity of elements would result in this type of molecule.
POLAR
CCl4
carbon tetrachloride
nitrogen trifluoride
NF3
The number of total valence electrons in NH4+.
8
A compound with a very high electronegativity difference would be formed of this kind of bond.
IONIC
CO
carbon monoxide
sulfur hexafluoride
SF6
The number of double bonds present in a molecule of CO2.
2
An electron dot configuration is called this.
LEWIS STRUCTURE
NH3
nitrogen trihydride
CO2
The type of compounds that require you to add or subtract electrons from the usual valence count.
POLYATOMIC IONS
A model in chemistry used to predict the shape of individual molecules based upon valence shell electron pair repulsion.
