Ionic Bond

In an ionic bond negative ions are surrounded by positive ions and positive ions are surrounded by negative ions. NaCl does not mean each Na and Cl ions are bound to each other. It only means the proportion of the ions is 1:1.


Hydrogen Bonding

The attractive force which binds hydrogen atom of one molecule with electronegative atom (F,O or N) of another molecule is known as hydrogen bond or hydrogen bonding.

Hydrogen bonds are formed when hydrogen is bonded to strongly electronegative elements uch as F, O or N.

The size of electronegative atom should be small for formation of Hydrogen bonds. Hydrogen bonds are not formed by Cl because of its bigger size.

Example of Hydrogen bonds

HF

H2O

NH3

Influence of Hydrogen bonding on properties

.1 Association
2. Higher melting and boiling points
3. Influence on the physical state
4. Solubility

VSEPR Model

I found the tutorial in the site given below very useful understand this topic.

Molecular geometry: VSEPR http://winter.group.shef.ac.uk/vsepr/intro.html
----------------------------
Molecular orbital theory

I found material from the site below to be useful to understand this topic.

Molecular Orbital Theory http://chemed.chem.purdue.edu/genchem/topicreview/bp/ch8/mo.html


Diamagnetic and Paramagnetic substances

Atoms or molecules in which the electrons are paired are diamagnetic repelled by both poles of a magnetic. Those that have one or more unpaired electrons are paramagnetic attracted to a magnetic field. Liquid oxygen is attracted to a magnetic field and can actually bridge the gap between the poles of a horseshoe magnet. The molecular orbital model of O2 is therefore superior to the valence-bond model, which cannot explain this property of oxygen.
