Which Type Of Bond Represents A Weak Chemical Bond

anion: a negative ion formed by gaining electrons

atomic number: the number of protons in an atom

cation: a positive ion formed by losing electrons

chemical bond: an interaction between two or more of the same or different elements that results in the formation of molecules

covalent bond: a type of strong bond between two or more of the same or different elements; forms when electrons are shared between elements

electron: a negatively charged particle that resides outside of the nucleus in the electron orbital; lacks functional mass and has a charge of -1

electron transfer: the movement of electrons from one element to another

element: one of 118 unique substances that cannot be broken down into smaller substances and retain the characteristic of that substance; each element has a specified number of protons and unique properties

hydrogen bond: a weak bond between partially positively charged hydrogen atoms and partially negatively charged elements or molecules

ion: an atom or compound that does not contain equal numbers of protons and electrons, and therefore has a net charge

ionic bond: a chemical bond that forms between ions of opposite charges

isotope: one or more forms of an element that have different numbers of neutrons

mass number: the number of protons plus neutrons in an atom

matter: anything that has mass and occupies space

neutron: a particle with no charge that resides in the nucleus of an atom; has a mass of 1

nonpolar covalent bond: a type of covalent bond that forms between atoms when electrons are shared equally between atoms, resulting in no regions with partial charges as in polar covalent bonds

nucleus: (chemistry) the dense center of an atom made up of protons and (except in the case of a hydrogen atom) neutrons

octet rule: states that the outermost shell of an element with a low atomic number can hold eight electrons

periodic table of elements: an organizational chart of elements, indicating the atomic number and mass number of each element; also provides key information about the properties of elements

polar covalent bond:a type of covalent bond in which electrons are pulled toward one atom and away from another, resulting in slightly positive and slightly negative charged regions of the molecule

proton: a positively charged particle that resides in the nucleus of an atom; has a mass of 1 and a charge of +1

radioactive isotope: an isotope that spontaneously emits particles or energy to form a more stable element

van der Waals interaction: a weak attraction or interaction between molecules caused by slightly positively charged or slightly negatively charged atoms
