1
New cards

stability

is gained when sublevels are completely or half-filled with electrons

2
New cards

full sublevels

offer more stability than half-filled sublevels

3
New cards

ionic bonds (metal and nonmetal)

EN > 1.7

complete donation occurs

4
New cards

why ionic bonds are not true bonds

the elements in an ionic compound are only held together due to electrostatic charge attraction (coulombic force) between the ions

no orbitals are overlapping or hybridizing

5
New cards

ionic lewis dot

arrows show donation

6
New cards

polar covalent bonds (nonmetal & nonmetal)

EN 0.35-1.7

shared unevenly between the two atoms, results in partial charges forming on each atom

7
New cards

non-polar covalent bonds (nonmetal & nonmetal)

EN 0-0.35

even pull on electrons, even sharing of electrons and no charges
