- Types of Bonding
- Covalent
- involves 2 non metal atoms sharing electrons
- strong bonds
- forms molecules with low melting and boiling points
- weak intermolecular forces between molecules
- non metals reacting together
- Ionic
- metals reacting with non metals
- metal atoms turn into positive ions and non metal atoms become negative ions
- strong electrostatic force of attraction
- Metallic
- forms between metal atoms
- electrons are free to move, so they are delocalised
- force of attraction made between delocalised electrons and positive metal ions
- strong bond and high boiling/ melting point
- Covalent
