chemistry chapter 6 part 1

What is a covalent bond?

• A bond where one atom contributes both bonding electrons

• Metal combined with nonmetal

• A bond between atoms with a complete octet

• Atoms held together by sharing electrons

What does monatomic mean?

• Consist of single atoms

• Molecule consisting of 2 atoms

• Consist of multiple atoms

• Compound composed of molecules

What is a molecular compound?

• Compound with high melting and boiling points

• Metal combined with nonmetal

• Compound composed of molecules

• Compound that conducts electricity

What is true about ionic compounds?

• Lower melting and boiling points compared to molecular compounds

• Consist of single atoms

• Made of nonmetals

• Metal combined with nonmetal

What is a resonance structure?

• Structure with single type of bond

• Structure that cannot satisfy the octet rule

• Structure with only sigma bonds

• Structure that occurs when two or more valid electron dot structures can be drawn

What is a sigma bond?

• Two atomic orbitals combine to form a molecular orbital that is symmetrical

• Bond where electrons are shared equally

• A bond where one atom contributes both bonding electrons

• Bond formed by the overlap of p orbitals

What describes electronegativity?

• Tendency to form ionic bonds

• Measure of an atom's ability to attract shared electrons to itself

• Energy required to break a bond

• Ability to form covalent bonds

What are Van der Waals forces?

• Forces that break covalent bonds

• Forces including dipole interactions and dispersion forces

• Forces that only occur in ionic compounds

• Strongest intermolecular force

What is a polar molecule?

• Molecule with equal distribution of charge

• Molecule that has two poles

• Molecule with only sigma bonds

• Molecule that cannot form hydrogen bonds
