  • Monoatomic
    An atom that forms 0 bonds
  • Noble gases
    • Group exists as single atoms and are gases at room temperature
    • Have a full shell of outer electrons
    • Are unreactive (inert)
  • Covalent bonds are usually made between atoms in substances which contain only non-metal elements
  • Covalent bond
    A shared pair of electrons between two atoms that are attracted to each other
  • Covalent molecules
    • Have a discrete number of atoms in their structure
    • Can be solid, liquid or gas
    • Need only a small amount of energy to break the weak intermolecular forces between the molecules
  • Covalent molecules
    • Water (H₂O)
    • Silicon dioxide (SiO₂)
  • Covalent network substances
    • Always solid
    • Have strong covalent bonds holding the atoms together
    • Require a great deal of energy to break
    • Have an undefined number of atoms in their structure
    • Their formula shows the ratio of atoms present
