Explains what covalent bonds are and the difference between them and ionic bonds. Discusses the properties of polar and non-polar covalent bonds, and single and multiple covalent bonds, and gives analogies and examples of how covalent...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Students will determine the polarity of a chemical bond using the electronegativity chart, and then distinguish between nonpolar covalent, polar covalent, and ionic...

Explains what chemical bonds are and how they form, the three most common types, and the characteristics of ionic bonds. Gives an example of ionic bonding.

Review over covalent, hydrogen, and ionic bonding in this article. Learn how molecules are held together by chemical bonds.

Use this resource to understand polar covalence in ion-derived solids.

These programs are classical 2-dimensional molecular dynamics simulations. Such simulations compute the motions of atoms by summing (integrating) all of the forces that the atoms exert on each other. These forces arise from changes in...
