    • Ionic bonding is the transfer of electrons from one atom to another.
    • Covalent bonds are formed when two atoms share pairs of electrons.
    • Metallic bonding occurs between metal atoms, where delocalized electrons move freely throughout the lattice structure.
    • Covalent bonds are formed when two atoms share their outermost shell electrons.
    • Hydrogen bonding involves hydrogen atoms covalently bonded with other elements (such as oxygen or nitrogen) that have lone electron pairs on their outer shells.
    • Hydrogen bonding involves hydrogen atoms covalently bound to more electronegative elements such as oxygen or nitrogen, with partial positive charges attracting nearby negative dipoles.
    • Hydrogen bonding involves hydrogen atoms covalently bonded with other elements (such as oxygen or nitrogen) that have lone pairs on them.
    • Hydrogen bonding involves hydrogen atoms forming weak dipole-dipole interactions with other polar molecules or lone pair electrons on an oxygen or nitrogen atom.
    • The strength of an ionic bond depends on the size of the positive and negative ions involved.
    • Dipole-dipole interactions occur between polar molecules due to their permanent electric dipoles.
    • The strength of covalent bonds depends on factors such as the number of shared electron pairs, the size of the atoms involved, and the distance between them.
    • Increasing the charge on either the positive or negative ion increases the strength of the bond.
    • In ionic compounds, the positive and negative charges attract strongly due to electrostatic forces.
    • The strength of hydrogen bonds depends on factors like distance, angle, and polarity.
    • Dipole-dipole interactions occur between polar molecules due to electrostatic forces.
    • In metallic bonding, the attraction between positively charged metal ions and negatively charged sea of electrons holds the metal together.
    • Ionic compounds consist of positively charged ions called cations and negatively charged ions called anions.
    • Ionic bonding is the strongest type of chemical bonding, involving the transfer of one or more valence electrons from one atom to another.
    • London dispersion forces arise from temporary fluctuations in charge distribution within nonpolar molecules.
    • A polar molecule has unequal sharing of electrons within its covalent bonds, resulting in partial charges on opposite ends of the molecule.
    • Ionic compounds can be soluble or insoluble depending on the nature of the ions present.
    • The electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions is known as ionic bonding.
    • Metallic bonding is responsible for the properties of metals.
    • The strength of ionic bonds depends on factors like the size of the ions involved, the distance between them, and the number of ions present.
    • In ionic bonding, one atom loses its valence electrons and becomes a positively charged ion, while another atom gains those electrons and becomes a negatively charged ion.
    • London dispersion forces are temporary attractions caused by fluctuations in electron density around nonpolar molecules.
    • In metallic bonding, metal atoms lose some of their valence electrons and form a sea of delocalized electrons between layers of positively charged metal ions.
    • Ionic bonds involve electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions.
    • In ionic compounds, the positively charged ions are attracted to negatively charged ions by electrostatic forces.
    • Covalent bonds form when two atoms share one or more pairs of electrons.
    • Ionic compounds are formed when metals react with nonmetals.
    • Covalent bonds involve sharing electrons between two atoms.
    • Ionic compounds have high melting points because they require a lot of energy to break apart the strong electrostatic attractions between oppositely charged ions.
    • Metallic bonds form between metal atoms and result from the transfer of valence electrons from one atom to another.
    • Metallic bonds form when metal atoms lose electrons and share them with neighboring atoms.
    • Polar covalent bonds form when there is unequal sharing of electrons between atoms, resulting in partial positive and negative charges.
    • Hydrophobic effect is the tendency of nonpolar substances to avoid water.
    • Ionic compounds have high melting points because they require energy to break strong electrostatic attractions.
    • Covalent bonds are formed when two nonmetal atoms share one or more pairs of electrons.
    • Metallic bonding is strong because it involves many overlapping electron clouds from neighboring metal ions.
