Molecular behavior
-
Bonds
Covalent bonds
-
-
-
-
Polar covalent bonds
Like covalent bonds, except with a bit of ionic grab
-
Metallic bonds
-
-
-
-
Two or more metals don't form compounds, rather they form alloys, solid mixtures of variable composition
Brass, bronze, and stainless steel are examples
Metal ions do not repel eachother (due to delocalized electrons), which is why metals can be dented and bent with a hammer, not cracked
Metal is a good conductor of heat, which is why it is cold to the touch; it is "stealing" heat from your hands
Ionic bonds
-
Electron transfer, causing cations and anions
-
When you hit salt with a hammer, you shift ions from their specific positions, and they repel, causing a crack
-
Electronegativity
-
Linus Pauling created a chart of electronegativity on the periodic table, with a scale of 0.0 to 4.0
Fluorine is the highest, at 4.0

Polarity
-
Dipole moment (micro) is the measure of molecular polarity, given in debye (from the SI unit coulomb)
-
-
Orbitals
-
Four orbitals exist
P
-
There are three p orbitals (px, py, and px)
P orbitals have positive and negative portions, and nodes

Molecular orbitals
Coulomb's law states that like charges repel and opposites attract, and electrostatic forces act on this
Eventually two atoms in the process of bonding with reach a point of electrostatic equilibrium where nuclei repel each other and attract electrons
Periodic organization
There is generally a graduation from more metallic elements to more nonmetallic elements across a period and up a group
