For Each of the Following Situations, Choose the Correct Type

Question 19

Matching

For each of the following situations, choose the correct type of chemical bond. Some choices may be used more than once.

Premises:

Responses:

Occurs when electrons are shared unequally between two atoms

hydrogen bonds

Occurs in molecular oxygen (O₂)

polar covalent bonds

Occurs in sodium chloride (NaCl)

nonpolar covalent bonds

Generates regions of partial positivity and partial negativity within a molecule

ionic bonds

Characteristic of molecules that contain atoms of only one kind

van der Waals forces

Creates a region that is hydrophobic

Attraction that arises when the constant movement of electrons, by chance, produces temporary zones of partial positive and partial negative charges

Occurs between water molecules

The weakest of the chemical linkages listed

Forms when atoms gain or lose valence electrons completely
