    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.
