675106933electronegativity(12.2) This property is described as an unequal sharing of electrons between 2 atoms or the relative ability of an atom in a molecule to attract shared electrons to itself.
675106934ionic bonding(12.1) A substances that form when an atom that loses electrons relatively easily reacts with an atom that has a high affinity for electrons (the participating atoms are so different that one or more electrons are transferred to form oppositely charged ions).
675106935ionic compound(12.1) A compound that results when a metal reacts with a non-mental to form a cation & an anion.
675106936Lewis structure(12.6) It representation of a molecule that shows how the valence electrons are arranged among the atoms in the molecule; the most important requirement for the formation of a stable compound is that the atoms achieve noble gas electron configurations.
675106937linear structure(12.8) Two pairs of electrons on a central atom in a molecule are always placed 180o apart.
675106938lone (unshared) pair(12.6) When 1 or more of the electrons pairs around the central atom are unshared.
675106939molecular (geometric) structure(12.8) An illustration as a three-dimensional arrangement of the atoms in a molecule.
675109318octet rule(12.6) When 8 electrons fill the valence orbital—that is, the one 2s and the three 2p orbitals (the most important requirement for the formation of a stable compound is that the atoms achieve noble gas electron configurations).
