Resource summary
Chemistry C2
chemical bonding
Covalent bonding-When atoms of non-metallic elements join together by sharing electrons
When two atoms share a pair of electrons
Ionic bonding-(metallic elements) Ionic compounds are held together by strong forces between the oppositely charged ions.
Giant ionic structures
High melting points, conduct electricity when dissolved in water.
Giant covalent strutures
Covalently bonded substances with giant structures have very high melting points
Diamond is a form of carbon, with atoms that form four covalent bonds
Graphite is another form of carbon where the carbon atoms form layers that can slide over other
Graphite can conduct electricity because of delocalised electrons
Formulae
Charges on ions cancel eachother out
CaCl2 (one Ca2+ ion for every two Cl- ions
Simple molecules
low melting points, boiling points
No overall charge, can't conduct electricity
Weak intermolecular forces-low m and b points
