Front

What is the definition of an ionic bond?

Back

An ionic bond is a chemical bond formed between two ions with opposite charges.

Front

What is a covalent bond?

Back

A covalent bond is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms.

Front

What is the octet rule?

Back

The octet rule states that atoms tend to bond in such a way that they have eight electrons in their valence shell.

Front

What is a polar molecule?

Back

A polar molecule is a molecule that has a net dipole moment due to the presence of polar bonds.

Front

What is a nonpolar molecule?

Back

A nonpolar molecule is a molecule that does not have a net dipole moment, often due to symmetrical charge distribution.
