- 15What is Electronegativity?the attraction of a given atom from the electrons of a covalent bond
- 16Whats the difference between a nonpolar covalent bond and a polar covalent bondNonpolar covalent bonds share electrons between two atoms with shared electronegativity, while polar covalent bonds do not share electrons.
- 17Define anion and cationAnions are negatively charged ions, while cations are positively charged. In the example sodium is a cation
- 18What is a hydrogen bond?a hydrogen bond is a weak chemical bond where a positive hydrogen atom of a polar covalent bond in one molecule is attracted to the slightly negative atom of a polar covalent bond in another molecule
- 19What are the strongest chemical bondscovalent
- 20What is dynamic equilibrium?when the forward and reverse reaction rates are equal
