Unit 4 Bonding

a

covalent bond

covalent bonds form between diatomic molecules and they have identical atoms.

covalent bonds form between diatomic molecules and they have identical atoms.

what are covalent bonds friendly???

covalent bonds are friendly bonds because the atoms involved in the bond share electrons.

what do covalent bonds share???

Covalent bonds share electrons

non-metals

Polar covalent

the electrons shared by the atoms spend a greater amount of time, on the average, closer to the Oxygen nucleus than the Hydro

the electrons shared by the atoms spend a greater amount of time, on the average, closer to the Oxygen nucleus than the Hydrogen nucleus.

Why is the polar covalent bond the 2nd strongest?

The polar covalent is the 2nd strongest bond because the electrons are shared by the atoms to have that greater amount of tim

The polar covalent is the 2nd strongest bond because the electrons are shared by the atoms to have that greater amount of time closer to the nucleus

Both non metals same electronegativity

One metal has more electron negativity

Ionic Bonds

form when one atom gives up one or more electrons to another atom

form when one atom gives up one or more electrons to another atom

Why is Ionic Bonds the strongest bond?

The Ionic Bonds are the strongest bond because they tend to form a lattice structure that makes them much stronger.

Non metal

Non-Metals gain metals

Metal

Lose electrons
