Card 8
Front
A shared pair of electrons in which the bonded pair has been provided by one of the bonding atoms only.

Card 9
Front
Attractive forces between induced dipoles in different molecules.

Card 10
Front
The electrostatic attraction between positive metal ions and delocalised electrons.

Card 11
Front
A value assigned as a measure of the relative attraction of a bonded atom for the pair of electrons in a covalent bond.
Back
Card 12
Front
A small charge difference that does not change across a bond, with δ+ and δ- partial charges on the bonded atoms: the result of the bonded atoms having different electronegativities.
