Covalent Bonding Section 2
A group of atoms that are held together by chemical forces
The attractive force that holds atoms or ions together
A compound composed of ions bound together by electrostatic attraction
A bond formed by the attraction between positively charged metal ions and the electrons around them
A theory that predicts some molecular shapes based on the idea that pairs of valence electrons surrounding an atom repel each other
A combination of chemical symbols and numbers to represent a substance
A force that attracts electrons from one atom to another which transforms a neutral atom into an ion
The collection of atoms corresponding to an ionic compound's formula such that the molar mass of the compound is the same as the mass of 1 mol of formula units
The ability of a substance to be hammered or beaten into a sheet
A bond formed when atoms share one or more pairs of electrons
The energy associated with constituent a crystal lattice relative to the energy of all constituent atoms separated by infinite distance
The ability of a substance to be hammered thin or drawn out into a wire
A formula that indicates the location of he atoms groups, or ions relative to one another in a molecule and that indicates the number and location of chemical bonds
A covalent bond in which the bonding electrons are equally attracted to both bonded atoms
An ion made of two or more atoms
The bonding in molecules or ions that cannot be correctly represented by a single Lewis Structure
Describes a molecule i which the positive and negative charges are separated
