Bonding & Intermolecular Forces Review

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, allowing metals to conduct heat and electricity.

Front

Which property is NOT associated with metallic bonds?

Back

Dissolve in water.

Front

What is the molecular structure of carbon dioxide (CO2)?

Back

Carbon dioxide has a linear molecular structure with the formula O=C=O.

Front

How do intermolecular forces affect boiling points?

Back

The weaker the intermolecular forces of a substance, the lower the boiling point.

Front

What type of intermolecular force is present in H2S?

Back

H2S exhibits dipole-dipole intermolecular forces.

Front

What type of compound is formed when Potassium (K) bonds with Iodine (I)?

Back

An ionic compound.

Front

Define ionic bond.

Back

An ionic bond is a type of chemical bond formed through the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions.

Front

What is a covalent bond?

Back

A covalent bond is a type of chemical bond where two atoms share one or more pairs of electrons.

Front

What are London Dispersion Forces?

Back

London Dispersion Forces are weak intermolecular forces arising from temporary dipoles in molecules.

Front

What is the significance of electronegativity in bonding?

Back

Electronegativity determines how strongly an atom attracts electrons in a bond, influencing bond type (ionic or covalent).
