The bonding unit primarily focuses on the way in which atoms, ions and molecules form together.
By the end of this Unit you will:
- Explain how energy and stability are related to chemical bond formation
- Distinguish between ionic and covalent bonds
- Distinguish between polar and nonpolar bonds
- Draw Lewis Dot Diagrams for both ionic and covalent bonds
- Describe network and metallic bonding
