A chemical bond is a lasting attraction between atoms, ions or molecules that enables the formation of chemical compounds. The bond may result from the electrostatic force of attraction between oppositely charged ions as in ionic bonds or through the sharing of electrons as in covalent bonds.
Answer:
Explanation:
The question is not complete, the cmplete question is:
Identify one type of noncovalent bond present in each solid.
1) Table salt (NaCl) 2) Graphite (repeating)
a. hydrogen bonds
b. ionic interactions
c. van der Waals interactions
d. hydrophobic interactions
Answer:
1) Table salt
b. ionic interactions
Ionic bond are formed between atoms with incomplete outermost shell. Some atoms add electrons to their outermost shell to make the shell complete hence making it a negative ion while some atoms loses their electron to make the outermost shell complete becoming a positive ion. In NaCl, sodium (Na) has 1 electron in its outermost shell which it transfers to Cl which has 7 electrons in the outermost shell. Hence after the bonding the outermost shell of the atoms become complete.
2) Graphite
c. Van Der Waals interaction
Van der waal forces are weak interaction between molecules that exist between close atoms. Carbon atoms in graphite planes have covalent bond, these graphite planes are known as graphenes. Bonds between graphenes are very weak and are van der waals forces.
