| 1. | the energy change occurring when separated gaseous ions are packed together to form an ionic solid. |
| 2. | a property of a molecule whose charge distribution can be represented by a center of positive charge and a center of negative charge. |
| 3. | the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions |
| 5. | a bond in which three pairs of electrons are shared by two atoms |
| 6. | a diagram of a molecule showing how the valence electrons are arranged among the atoms in the molecule. |
| 7. | ions containing the same number of electrons |
| 8. | a model which assumes that a molecule is composed of atoms that are bound together by sharing pairs of electrons using the atomic orbitals of the bound atoms. |
| 9. | is the energy of interaction between a pair of ions |
| 10. | a model whose main postulate is that the structure around a given model atom in a molecule is determined principally by minimizing electron-pair repulsions. |
| 11. | a covalent bond in which the electrons are not shared equally because one atom attracts them more strongly than the other. |
| 15. | a bond in which one pair of electrons is shared by two atoms |
| 17. | the observation that atoms of nonmetals tend to form the most stable molecules when they are surrounded by eight electrons (to fill their valence orbitals). |
| 19. | an electron pair found in the space between two atoms. |
