A compound is held together by chemical bonds. A chemical bond is the attractive force that holds atoms or ions together. A compound always has the same chemical formula. Chapter 5

ResourcesChapter menu Section 1 Compounds and Molecules What Are Compounds? continued Chemical structure shows the bonding within a compound. A chemical structure is the arrangement of atoms in a substance. A bond length is the average distance between the nuclei of two bonded atoms. A bond angle is the angle formed by two bonds to the same atom. Chapter 5

ResourcesChapter menu Section 1 Compounds and Molecules How Does Structure Affect Properties? continued Some compounds are made of molecules. Some compounds made of molecules are solids, others are liquids, others are gases. The strength of attractions between molecules varies. Attractions between water molecules are called hydrogen bonds. Hydrogen bonding is depicted on the next slide. Chapter 5

Although a “bar” is sometimes used to represent a bond between two atoms, chemical bonds behave more like flexible springs. Chapter 5

ResourcesChapter menu Section 2 Ionic and Covalent Bonding Metallic Bonds A metallic bond is a bond formed by the attraction between positively charged metal ions and the electrons around them. Electrons move freely between metal atoms. This model explains why metals: conduct electricity conduct heat are flexible Chapter 5
