simplest repeating unit in a cell
unit cell
heat required to cause a unit rise in the temperature of a unit mass of a given substance
specific heat
property that is used to predict whether a bond is primarily ionic or primarily covalent
electronegativity
the particle of the three main particles that has a negative charge
electrons
covalent bind in which the bonding electron pair is pulled closer to the more electronegative element
polar bond
term that refers to a very hard substance that contain covalent binds but do not consist of discrete molecules
covalent networks
a molecules of CO2 in which polar bonds point symmetrically in opposite directions is
nonpolar
the arrangement of atoms in a crystal that has the least empty space of any cubic arrangement
