252787026non-polar Covalent Bondwhen two atoms share the electron pair evenly
252787027Polar Covalent Bondwhen two atoms share an electron pair, but one atom gets the electrons most of the time
252787028Ionic Bondelectrostatic force of attraction between oppositely charged ions. one atom, the nonmetal, completely gains the electron(s) while the other atom, the metal completely looses the electron(s)

252787033London Dispersion Forces (LDF)when molecules are nonpolar
252787034IsomersDifferent compounds that have the same molecular formula but different structural formulas
