Incomplete Octet
Chemical Bonding & Molecular Structure
Dimensionless
A stable bonding arrangement in which the central atom carries fewer than eight valence electrons.
Intermolecular Forces
Chemical Bonding & Molecular Structure
kJ/mol
The comparatively weak attractions acting between separate molecules rather than within them.
Ionic Bond
Chemical Bonding & Molecular Structure
kJ/mol
The electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions formed by the complete transfer of electrons from one atom to another.
F ∝ q₁q₂ / r²
Ion–Dipole Interaction
Chemical Bonding & Molecular Structure
kJ/mol
