Bond Energy
|
the energy required to break a chemical bond and form neutral isolated atoms

|
Chemical Bond
|
the mutual attraction between the nuclei and valance electrons of different atoms that bond the atoms together
|
|
Chemical Formula
|
tells the kinds of atoms and the number of each kinda in a chemical compound
|
|
Covalent Bonding
|
results from the sharing of electron pairs between two atoms

|
Double Bond
|
a bond in which 2 pairs of electrons is shared between two atoms
|
|
Ductility
|
the ability of a substance to be pulled into thin wire
|
|
Electron-Dot Notation
|
an electron configuration notation in which only valance electrons of an atom of a particular element are shown
|
|
Electronegativity
|
shows how strongly atoms of each element attract electrons
|
|
Forming Unit
|
the simplest collection of atoms from which an ionic compound's formula can be established
|
|
Hydrogen Bond
|
an intermolecular force in which a hydrogen atom that is bonded to a highly electronegative atom is attracted to an unshared pair of electrons of electronegative atom in a nearby atom
|
|
Ionic Compound
|
composed of positive and negative ions that are combined so that the positive and negative numbers of ions are equal
|
|
Lattice Energy
|
the energy released when 1 mole of an ionic crystalline compound is formed from gaseous ions
|
|
Lewis Structures
|
formulas in which atomic symbols represent nuclei and inner shell electrons, dot-pairs or dashes between atomic symbols represent electron represent electron pairs in covalent bonds, and dots adjacent to only 1 atomic symbol represent unshared electrons
|
|
Malleability
|
the ability of a substance to be hammered into thin sheets
|
|
Metallic Bonding
|
results from the attraction between metal atoms and the surrounding sea of electrons
|
|
Molecular Compound
|
a chemical compound whose simplest units are molecules
|
|
Molecule
|
a neutral group of atoms that are held together by covalent bonds
|
|
Nonpolar-Covalent Bond
|
a covalent bond in which electrons are shared equally and results in a balanced electrical distribution
|
|
Octet Rule
|
states that a chemical compound tends to form so that each atom by gaining, losing, or sharing has 8 electrons in its highest energy level
|
|
Polar
|
means that atoms in a compound have an uneven distribution of charge
|
|
Polar-Covalent Bond
|
a covalent bond in which the bonded atoms have an unequal attraction for the shared electrons
|
|
Polyatomic Ion
|
a charged group of covalently bonded atoms
|
|
Resonance
|
refers to bonding in molecules or ions that cannot be correctly represented by only 1 lewis structure
|
|
Single bond
|
bond in which 1 pair of electrons is shared between 2 atoms
|
|
Structural Formula
|
indicates the kind, number, arrangement, and bonds but not the unshared pairs, of atoms in a molecule
|
|
Triple Bond
|
a bond in which 3 pairs of electrons are shared between 2 atoms
|
