10.2: Covalent Bonding: An Introduction - Chemistry LibreTexts
2023年7月12日 · A chemical bond formed by sharing a pair of electrons is called a covalent bond. We begin our discussion of the relationship between structure and bonding in covalent compounds by describing the interaction between two identical neutral atoms—for example, the H 2 molecule, which contains a purely covalent bond.

2023年1月16日 · Interstitial carbides are compounds of the transition metals with metallic properties and the C in tetrahedral holes in the metal atom lattice. The best known example is the extremely hard tungsten carbide, WC, used in cutting tools. Covalent carbides include B 4 C 3 and SiC (carborundum - an abrasive with a diamond-like structure)
6.1: Lattice Energies - Chemistry LibreTexts
2020年7月16日 · Lattice energies calculated for ionic compounds are typically much larger than bond dissociation energies measured for covalent bonds. Whereas lattice energies typically fall in the range of 600–4000 kJ/mol (some even higher), covalent bond dissociation energies are typically between 150–400 kJ/mol for single bonds.

Describe the energetics of covalent and ionic bond formation and breakage; Use the Born-Haber cycle to compute lattice energies for ionic compounds; Use average covalent bond energies to estimate enthalpies of reaction
10.6 Lattice Structures in Crystalline Solids - OpenStax
Let us begin our investigation of crystal lattice structure and unit cells with the most straightforward structure and the most basic unit cell. To visualize this, imagine taking a large number of identical spheres, such as tennis balls, and arranging them uniformly in a container.
The Basics of Covalent Bonding in Terms of Energy and Dynamics
The valence-bond (VB) theory of Pauling [15, 16] has provided a natural bridge between these two theories and, especially in its qualitative form, for many years it has been the bonding theory of choice of most chemists.
A self-standing three-dimensional covalent organic framework …
2023年1月14日 · Covalent crystals are related to covalent organic frameworks (COFs), which are defined as network-type lattice structures maintained by covalent bonds and based only on light atoms.
9.4: Bonding in Crystalline Solids - Physics LibreTexts
Atoms arrange themselves in a lattice to form a crystal because of a net attractive force between their constituent electrons and atomic nuclei. The crystals formed by the bonding of atoms belong to one of three categories, classified by their bonding: ionic, covalent, and metallic.
6.4 Strengths of Ionic and Covalent Bonds
Use the Born-Haber cycle to compute lattice energies for ionic compounds. Use average covalent bond energies to estimate enthalpies of reaction. A bond’s strength describes how strongly each atom is joined to another atom, and therefore how much energy is required to break the bond between the two atoms.
