Ionic bonding
Occur between metals, losing electrons, and nonmetals, gaining electrons
Covalent bonding
The interatomic linkage that results from the sharing of an electron pair between two atoms
Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion Theory (VSEPR)
Electron pairs (both shared and unshared) in the outermost energy level try to get as far apart as possible; determines shape of molecule
Linear
Central no unshared pairs; 2 or 3 atoms
Linear Angle
180
Bent
Central 1 or 2 unshared pairs; 3 atoms
Bent angle
104.5
Trigonal planar
Central no unshared pairs; 4 atoms
Trigonal planar Angle
120
Trigonal Pyamid
Central 1 unshared pair; 4 atoms

Polar
A covalent bond between two atoms where the electrons forming the bond are unequally distributed
