The ratio of cations to anions in an ionic compound is expressed in a chemical formula known as a(n) __________ unit.

An orderly arrangement of ions in a three-dimensional pattern within a compound is called a(n)

Because most metals have __________, they are most likely to freely share electrons when bonding with each other.

When atoms bond, they will seek a higher, more stable energy state.

Diatomic molecules such as I₂ exhibit ionic bonding.

The compound Na₂O exhibits ionic bonding.

Some, but not all, covalent molecules exhibit polarity.

Completely nonpolar bonds exist.

Within a molecule, the atom that exerts a greater pull on the electrons has a partial positive charge.

Covalently bonded compounds contain one or more pairs of shared electrons

Hydrogen forms many covalent bonds by achieving a stable octet of electrons.

When sodium and chlorine combine to form NaCl, a great amount of energy is released.

Ionic compounds are not made of distinct molecules as are covalent compounds

Metallic bonding is characterized by a loose transfer of electrons between two atoms.

Some covalent substances occur as relatively hard, brittle crystals with high melting points, glassy lusters, and unusual electrical properties.

Ionic compounds are more likely than covalent compounds to fracture along cleavage lines.

Ionic compounds have considerably lower boiling points than polar covalent compounds.
