Intramolecular forces are bonds that occur where?
within a molecule
Oxygen

8
The type of bonding between atoms in a molecule is determined by
Difference in electronegativity
The polarity of water allows it to make this kind of bond between different water molecules
Hydrogen bonds
These are the 6 elements that make up organic matter
CHONPS (carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, phosphorus, sulfur)
Neutrons do not contribute charge to an atom but they do contribute
Mass
Carbon has 6 electrons total. Therefore, it will desire ___ electrons to fill its valence shell
4
When the difference in electronegativity is very low, bonded atoms will exhibit this type of bonding
nonpolar covalent
Cohesion
The term used to describe how much matter an element or atom contains.
Mass
Electrons are not found in the nucleus of an atom. Instead, they are found in
electron shells or orbitals
At atom with 12 electrons would have ___ electron shells
3
