Explain the relationship between atmospheric pressure and the actual boiling point of a liquid. 1
Ionic Bonds- o Bond created by electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions o Occurs between a metal and a non-metal o Electrons transferred between the cation and the anion o Extremely strong bonds Covalent Bonds- o Bonds created by the sharing of electrons between atoms o Occurs between 2 nonmetals (results in a neutral overall charge) o Electrons not transferred o Electrons are shared in pairs o Weaker than ionic bonds Polar Vs. Nonpolar o Polar covalent- unequal sharing of electrons, occurs when different elements are covalently bonded to one another, partial charges on the atoms sharing electrons Shorter bonds Stronger bo
