Chemistry Test

Ionic Bond

Formed between metals and non-metals, involves attraction of positive and negative ions, results in high melting and boiling points, brittleness, solubility in polar substances.

Simple Molecular Bond

Sharing electrons between non-metal atoms, weak bonds, low melting and boiling points, insolubility in water, does not conduct electricity.

Macro-molecular Bond

Large molecules with covalent bonds within chains, often tangled up.

Giant Covalent Bond

Giant networks of atoms linked by covalent bonds, high melting and boiling points, strength, insolubility, does not conduct electricity.

Diamond

Giant Covalent structure, high melting and boiling points, strength due to rigid atom arrangement, non-conductivity.

Graphite

Giant covalent structure, conducts electricity, high melting and boiling points, brittleness due to weak forces between layers, allowing sliding.

Metallic Bond

Metals with delocalized electrons, conductivity, malleability, ductility, high melting and boiling points, strength, insolubility.
