Term
covalent bond
Definition
a bond where electrons are shared more or less shared equally between each other
Term
polar covalent bond
Definition
bonds in which a partial transfer of charge form one atom to another occurs
Term
Electronegativity
Definition
the tendency of an atom in a molecule to attract electrons from other atoms
Term
VESPR Theory
Definition
valance electron shell repulsion theory:
predicts molecular shape based on the concept that electron pairs position themselves as far as possible from each other

Term
cation
Definition
positively charged ion
Term
anion
Definition
negatively charged ion
Term
ionization energy/ potential
Definition

Term
effective potential energy
Definition
takes in to account the attractive electron-nuclear forces and the repulsion from the other electrons
Term
