Front

Define intermolecular forces.

Back

Forces of attraction or repulsion between neighboring particles (atoms, molecules, or ions).

Front

What is the difference between ionic and covalent bonds?

Back

Ionic bonds involve transfer of electrons, while covalent bonds involve sharing of electrons.

Front

What is a polar molecule?

Back

A molecule that has a net dipole moment due to the presence of polar bonds.
