Chemical Bonds
This is the type of bond formed between 2 atoms when their electronegativities are very different (>1.7).
What is an ionic bond?
Bonds of this order are considered to be relatively long and weak.
What are single bonds?
This can be used to estimate the relative strength of different ionic bonds
What is Coulomb's Law?
This type of bond contains 6 electrons.
What is a triple bond?
The electron geometry formed when there are 4 electron domains.
What is tetrahedral?
This is the type of bond formed when electrons are shared unequally between the two atoms.
What is a polar covalent bond?
This the energy input required to break a chemical bond or the energy released when a chemical bond is broken.
What is bond enthalpy?
In this type of alloy, metal atoms with a small atomic radius fill in the spaces between metal atoms with a large atomic radius.
What is interstitial?
The charge carried by each individual atom in a Lewis structure.
What is formal charge?
This is the number of pi bonds in the molecule shown on the board.
What is 3?
This explains why ionic bonds are stronger when the charges are larger and the ions are smaller.
What is Coulomb's Law?
Covalent bonds form when atoms reach a value for this measurement that allows for the lowest energy state (maximized attraction, minimized repulsion).
What is internuclear distance?
This is the name for the smallest whole-number ratio of ions in an ionic compound.
What is a formula unit?
Atoms in this region of the periodic table can handle an expanded octet.
What are nonmetals in period 3 or lower?
This type of electron domain has weaker repulsive force than its counterpart.
What is a bonding domain?
This is how valence electrons are described in metallic bonding.
What is delocalized?
The change in energy that takes place when gaseous ions are combined to form an ionic solid.
What is lattice energy?
In this type of alloy, metal atoms of similar size replace the main metal in the metallic lattice.
What is substitutional?
These typically occur when multiple atoms of the same element can create a double or triple bond with the central atom of a molecule.
What are resonance structures?
This is the bond hybridization of Carbon #2 in the molecule shown on the board.
What is sp2?
This is (about) the electronegativity value of fluorine, the most electronegative element.
What is 4.0?
The process of polar water molecules breaking up the lattice structure of an ionic solid.
What is hydration?
A repeating array of cations and anions held together by ionic bonds.
What is a crystal lattice?
This where negative formal charges should be located when drawing Lewis structures.
What is the most electronegative atom?
This is the molecular geometry around Carbon #3 in the molecule shown on the board.
What is trigonal planar?
