| linear molecule | a term used to describe the shape of certain molecules such as CO2 |
| When like atoms are joined by a covalent bond, the bonding electrons are shared equally and the bond is ( ) | nonpolar |
| When the atoms in the bond are not the same, the bonding electrons are shared unequally, and the bond is ( ) | polar |
| The degree of polarity of a bind between any two atoms is determined by consulting a table of ( ) | electronegatives |
| The attractions between opposite poles of polar molecules are called | dipole interactions |
| When a hydrogen covalenty bonded to a very electronegative atom, such as oxygen, nitrogen, fluorine, is also weakly bonded to an unshared electron pair of another electronegative atom, it is called a | hydrogen bond |
