Study Notes
Chemical Bonding
- Ionic bonds transfer electrons from a cation (metal) to an anion (non-metal).
- Covalent bonds share electrons between two non-metals.
- Metallic bonds delocalize electrons, creating a "sea" of electrons.
Properties of Metals
- Malleable means capable of being shaped or molded into different forms.
- Lustrous means having a shiny or reflective appearance.
- Ductile means capable of being stretched or drawn into thin wires.
Bonding Characteristics
- Ionic bonds do not conduct electricity.
- Covalent bonds share electrons equally.
- Polar covalent bonds have unequal sharing of electrons.
Alloys
- An alloy is a mixture of two or more elements, at least one of which is a metal.
