Fluorescence
Electrons absorb light, jump to higher state and quickly release energy as light when returning to ground state
Phosphorescence
Electrons absorb light, jump to higher state and release energy as light when returning to ground state (this takes longer)

Ionic bonds
One atoms transfers electron(s) to other atom (electrons not shared)
Covalent Bonds
Atoms share electrons (usually between non metals)
strongly directional bonds
Strong bond strength
Mostly polymers & semiconductors
Overlapping orbitals
Metallic bonds
Two positive ions share a sea of electrons (electrons shared)
non directional
Highly conductive
Allows for plastic deformation
Van der Waals Bonds
Weak attraction between partially + & - atoms (electrons not shared)
Polymers and semi conductors
How is magnetic saturation determined
Number of unpaired electrons
The more unpaired the more magnetic saturation
Electronegativity
Atoms ability to attract electrons to itself when forming bonds
increases from bottom to top and left to right

A higher ionic charge means
ionic bond (higher or lower)
Bond energy (higher or lower)
Melting point (higher or lower)
Higher ionic bond
Higher Bond energy
Higher Melting point
Parts of force vs distance graph
max
Slope
Equilibrium bond distance
Equilibrium point
max: max attractive force (peak of the curve)
Slope: Stiffness (the steeper the stiffer)
Equilibrium bond distance: distance from 0 to where all forces are equal)
Equilibrium point: Where net force and attractive and repulsive forces are 0 (where graph crosses from negative to positive)

Parts of energy vs distance graph
min
Curve crosses x axis
0 to min
min: equilibrium point
Curve crosses x axis: potential energy = 0
0 to min: equilibrium distance
Higher enthalpy of fusion (higher or lower stiffness)
Higher stiffness
Bond energy equation (total bond energy)
E_total = -A/x + B/X^12
-Ax = attraction energy
B/x^12 =repulsive energy
A= attractive energy constant
B = Repulsive energy constant
x= distance between atoms
Identifying Stiffness
Force vs Distance curve
Energy vs distance curve
Force vs Distance curve: the steeper the stiffer
Energy vs distance curve: the narrower the stiffer

Melting point
Thermal expansion
Melting point: the lower the bottom the higher the mp & fp
Thermal expansion: the wider the curve the higher the CTE
