A force that holds two or more atoms together.
What is a chemical bond?
What is an outermost electron of an atom that participates in chemical bonding?
What is a valence electron?
A model that represents valence electrons in an atom.
What is an electron dot diagram?
A chemical bond formed when two atoms share one or more pairs of valence electrons.
What is a covalent bond?
A group of atoms held together by covalent bonding that acts as an independent unit.
What is a molecule?
A molecule that has a partial positive end and a partial negative end because of unequal sharing of electrons?
A group of chemical symbols and numbers that represent the elements and the number of atoms of each element that make up a compound.
What is a chemical formula?
The attraction between positively and negatively charged ions in an ionic compound.
What is an ionic bond?
A bond formed when many metal atoms share their pooled valence electrons.
What is a metallic bond?
A group of chemical elements that are all odorless, colorless, and have very low chemical reactivity.
What are noble gases?
