Document Summary

Slide notes: key concepts, molecules form when atoms bind to each other. Chemical bonds are formed on electron sharing, which depends on the type of bond formed: water is the most important molecule for life. Electron shells are numbered: smaller numbers closer to the nucleus. Electronegativity: ability to attract electrons: high electronegativity= hold electrons more tightly, have a negative charge, and give the atom with lower. Nonpolar covalent bond: electrons are evenly shared between two electronegativity a positive charge. atoms: bond= symmetrical. Polar covalent bond: electrons are asymmetrically shared. Ionic bonds: electrons are transferred from one atom to another: the resulting attraction between oppositely charged ions. Like a magnet, positive ions attract negative ions: ion: an atom of molecule that carries a charge. Cation: an atom that becomes positively charged loses an electron. Anion: an atom that becomes negatively charged gains an electron.
