Study Notes
Types of Chemical Bonds
- Covalent Bond: Characterized by the sharing of electrons between non-metal atoms, leading to the formation of molecules.
- Ionic Bond: Formed by the transfer of electrons from a metal to a non-metal, resulting in the creation of charged ions that attract each other.
- Metallic Bond: Involves delocalized electrons that are free to move between positive metal ions, creating a "sea of electrons" that contributes to electrical conductivity and malleability.
Properties of Ionic Compounds
- High Melting and Boiling Points: Ionic compounds typically exhibit very strong ionic bonds, leading to high melting and boiling points due to the energy required to break these bonds.
Giant Ionic Lattice Structure
- Spheres in Giant Ionic Lattice: In a giant ionic lattice diagram, spheres usually represent ions arranged in a regular pattern, demonstrating the orderly and repeating structure typical of ionic compounds.
