In this video students will come to understand the basic difference between ionic and covalent bonding. Viewers will learn that covalent bonds form between non-metallic atoms that share pairs of electrons and covalent bonds form between...

We've learned about ionic and covalent bonds, so we understand the interactions that will occur between a metal and a nonmetal, or between two nonmetals. But what about two metals? Metallic bonding! This ends up being sort of like ionic...

Upon viewing the Forming Bonds video series, students will be able to do the following: Understand that matter is made up of tiny particles called atoms. Explain that atoms consist of many different types of subatomic particles including...

If movies have taught us anything, it’s that the first person to enter a spooky cave is the first to get in trouble! Will First Mate Phil survive to see the light of day? This lesson will shine a light on the chemical properties of...

Chemical bonding explains how atoms combine to form molecules. It involves forces like ionic, covalent, and metallic bonds that hold atoms together, dictating the physical and chemical properties of substances.

Understanding the difference between intramolecular and intermolecular forces is crucial for mastering chemistry. In this video, we'll break down these concepts into easy-to-understand steps to help you excel in your...

Beautiful Bonds: The World of Covalent and Metallic Solids

Covalent solids, also known as network solids, are materials with atoms bonded together in a continuous network by covalent bonds, resulting in large, rigid structures....

Learn the basics about the differences between different chemical structures, including giant covalent, giant ionic and metallic structures. There are numerous materials and substances that possess giant chemical structures. Some are...

This video introduces the Bonding series. The process of chemical bonding is described and illustrated through engaging live action footage, and supported by vivid animations. The role atomic structure plays in the process of bonding is...

This lesson will present the rules for writing the names and chemical formulae of elements and their allotropes.

Definitions included: chemical structure, ionic lattice, metallic lattice, molecule, covalent network, solitary atom,...

In this video Paul Andersen explains how ionic solids form a lattice between cations and anions. According the Coulomb's Law the lattice energy increases as the ions carry a larger charge and are smaller. Some of the properties of...

In this video Paul Andersen explains the difference between chemical and physical processes. Chemical processes occur when bonds are broken and reformed. Physical processes occur when intermolecular forces are broken and reformed. A...

Giant ionic structures also have exceptionally high melting points. This is because the electrostatic interactions between the ions are very strong. Mg2+ and O2- ions have double the number of charges on their ions than Na+ and Cl- ions...
