Chemistry Chapter 8 and 9 Terms Chapter 8 Axial: in the trigonal bipyrimidal electron-pair geometry, the two positions directly across from each other. Bent: the molecular geometry of a triatomic molecule or ion in which the bond angle is less than 180 degrees. Bond Angle: the angle formed between two bond axes. Bond Axis: an imaginary line connecting the nuclei of two bonded atoms. Bond Length: the distance between the nuclei of two bonded atoms. Bond Order: the number of bonding electron pairs shared by two atoms in a molecule or polyatomic ion. Bonding Pair: a pair of electrons that is shared between two atoms. Bonding: describes the forces that hold adjacent atoms together. Chemical Bond: an attractive force between two atoms that causes the atoms to be attached together.
