Intramolecular Forces

Front

What is an intramolecular force?

Back

Intramolecular forces are the forces that hold atoms together within a molecule, determining the molecule's structure and properties.

Front

What type of bond is formed between metal and non-metal?

Back

Ionic bonding.

Front

What is the strongest type of intramolecular force?

Back

Ionic bonds are the strongest type of intramolecular force.

Front

What is the difference between ionic and covalent bonds?

Back

Ionic bonds involve the transfer of electrons from one atom to another, while covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between atoms.

Front

What is a metallic bond?

Back

A metallic bond is a type of chemical bond that occurs between metal atoms, characterized by a 'sea of electrons' that are free to move around.

Front

How does the charge of an ion affect metallic bond strength?

Back

The greater the charge of the ion, the stronger the metallic bond strength.

Front

What is a polar covalent bond?

Back

A polar covalent bond is a type of covalent bond where electrons are shared unequally between two atoms, resulting in a molecule with a slight charge.

Front

What is a non-polar covalent bond?

Back

A non-polar covalent bond is a type of covalent bond where electrons are shared equally between two atoms, resulting in no charge difference.

Front

What is an example of an ionic compound?

Back

Magnesium chloride (MgCl2) is an example of an ionic compound.

Front

What is an example of a covalent compound?

Back

Water (H2O) is an example of a covalent compound.
