Study Notes
Chemical Bonding
- Covalent bonds are the major binding force in diamond, which is a covalent crystal.
Molecular Solids
- Molecular solids are a type of solid that consists of discrete molecules held together by intermolecular forces, including van der Waals forces, hydrogen bonds, and dipole-dipole forces.
Crystal Systems
- There are four types of orthorhombic unit cells: primitive orthorhombic, base-centered orthorhombic, body-centered orthorhombic, and face-centered orthorhombic.
