Flashcards : Chemical Bonding Fundamentals — 24 cartes

Force that holds atoms together in molecules.

Atoms bond to achieve stable electron configurations.

Ionic, covalent, metallic, hydrogen bonds.

Transfer of electrons between metal and non-metal.

Atoms share electron pairs to stabilize.

Delocalized electrons shared among metal atoms.

Weak attraction between H and F, O, N.

Electron dot structures for bonding visualization.

Atoms seek 8 electrons in outer shell.

Distance between nuclei of bonded atoms.

Predict molecular shapes based on electron pairs.

Depict delocalized electrons in molecules.

Cations and anions attracted electrostatically.

Depends on electronegativity difference.

Conductivity, malleability, ductility.

Influences water properties and biological structures.

Valence electrons and bonding patterns.

Molecules like NO, BCl₃ violate it.

Strength of a bond; higher means stronger.

Electron pair repulsion (VSEPR).

Stabilizes molecules via electron delocalization.

Ionic: transfer; Covalent: sharing.

Length, energy, order.

Linear, trigonal planar, tetrahedral, etc.
