Bonding types
This type of bond involves sharing of electron pairs between atoms.
What is covalent bond
This rule says that most molecules tend to bond in such a way that each atom has eight electrons in its valence shell.
What is the octet rule?
This shape is characteristic of a molecule with four electron groups and no lone pairs around the central atom
What is a tetrahedral?
This term describes a molecule with an uneven distribution of charge
What is polar?
This term describes the ability of an atom in a molecule to attract electrons to itself
What is electronegativity?
This bond type occurs when an electron is completely transferred from one atom to another
What is an ionic bond?
In lewis structures, these pairs of electrons are not included
What are lone pairs?
Water has this molecular shape due to its two lone pairs and two bond pairs
What is bent?
This type of attractive force acts between polar molecules.
What is a dipole-dipole?
This term refers to the actual charge on an atom in a molecule, considering the sharing of electrons in bonds
Whta is oxidation state?
This is the bond type of the compound, F2
What is Non-polar covalent?
The ion has a Lewis structure with three oxygen atoms, one of which carries a negative charge.
What is the nitrate ion (NO3-)?
This molecular geometry results when there are three electron groups and one lone pair around the central atom
What is trigonal pyramidal?
This property is significantly affected by hydrogen bonding, resulting in higher values for substances like water
What is boiling point?
This is the strongest intermolecular force present in MgCI^2
This special type of dipole-dipole interaction occurs when hydrogen is bonded to nitrogen, oxygen, or fluorine
What is a hydrogen bond?
This Lewis structure for this molecule shows a triple bond between two carbon atoms.
What is ethyne (C2H2)?
A molecule with two atoms has this simple geometry
What is linear?
These forces increase in molecular size
What are London dispersion forces?
These interactions occur between all molecules and is the weakest of all intermolecular forces
What are London Dispersion forces?
This type of bond forms between metal cation and spread out electrons around it.
What is a metallic bond?
This common gas has a Lewis structure that is an exception to the octet rule because it has fewer than eight electrons around the central atom
What is BF3?
The molecular shape of methane is described by this term
What is tetrahedral?
This molecule is nonpolar despite having polar bonds
What is CCI4?
This shape of a molecule can be predicted by this theory, which states that electron pairs around a central atom will arrange themselves
What is VSEPR?
