Study Notes
Chemical Bonds and Water Properties
- Molecules are groups of atoms held together in stable association.
- Compounds are molecules that contain more than one type of element, and their properties are distinct from the elements they are created from.
- Most substances encountered in everyday life are compounds.
- Atoms within molecules are held together by chemical bonds, which are forces of attraction that make things solid.
- Chemical bonds are characterized by specific bond energy related to electrons.
- Valence electrons dictate an atom's bonding capabilities.
- Ionic bonds form when one atom loses electrons and another gains electrons, resulting in the formation of ions.
- Metallic bonds form within metals, with electrons moving freely between atoms.
- Covalent bonds form when atoms share electrons, and can be single, double, or triple depending on the number of electrons shared.
- Polar covalent bonds occur when electrons are not shared equally, creating partial positive and negative charges.
- Ions, formed by the loss or gain of electrons, are involved in many biological processes.
- Water is important to life, with hydrogen bonds linking to covalent bonds and creating weak chemical associations. Water also exhibits properties such as cohesion, adhesion, and high specific heat.
