, Ionic Bonds - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Transfer of electrons between atoms; creates

oppositely charged ions


Polar Covalent Bonds - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Electrons are unequally shared

between two atoms; results in a slightly positive charge on one side of the

molecule and a slightly negative charge on the other side


Nonpolar Covalent Bonds - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Equal sharing of electrons

between two atoms; has an even distribution of charges among the

molecule


Hydrogen Bonds - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Positive end of a polar molecule is

attracted to the negative end of another polar molecule, and vice versa; not

a chemical bond and is weaker than ionic/covalent bonds


Compound - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Substance resulting from the chemical

combination of 2+ different types of atoms


Dissociation - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔-Process of ionic compounds dissolving in

water causing their ions to separate from each other
