Document Summary

Each atom donates 1 electron and the atoms share a pair of electrons (finish) Oxygen is electronegative and pulls the electrons away from the hydrogen, causing the hydrogen to ge slightly positively charged and oxygen to be slightly negatively charged. Ionic bonds are formed between a positively charged ion and a negatively charged ion. Compounds formed by ionic bonds are salts and as a dry substance contain many ions held together by electrical attraction. Hydrogen bonds: a weak attraction between a slightly positively charged hydrogen atom and a slightly negatively charged atom. Life is all about making and breaking chemical bonds. We can"t create atoms, we can only rearrange them to make new molecules. Chemical equilibrium when the forward and reverse reactions are equal. Contains 4 valence electrons that can form 4 covalent bonds with other atoms. Water is the only common substance on earth to exist in the natural environment in all 3 states (liquid, solid, and gas)
