Slide 41
Like ionic crystals, but they are held together with covalent bonds
Single elements can form an array of different network solids
Eg. Carbon forms graphite, diamond, nanotubes (pg. 60)
Slide 42
Each different network solid of the same element just has different arrangement of the atoms
Some network solids contain two different elements
Eg. Silicon Dioxide (sand, quartz)

Questions
Slide 44
Covalent bonds exist between atoms within a molecular compound
These covalent bonds are called intramolecular forces
Forces holding entire molecules together are called intermolecular forces
Slide 45
Occurs between polar molecules
Polar molecules have a positive pole and a negative pole so they are called dipoles
When two dipoles come close to each other, the positive pole of one is attracted to the negative pole of the other
Slide 46
Dipole-Dipole Attractions
Slide 47
Each molecule can be attracted to four or more other polar molecules at the same time
This is called Dipole-Dipole Attraction
Not as strong as ionic attraction, but can be strong enough to stabilize a solid crystal
Eg. Table sugar
Slide 48
Special dipole-dipole attraction that occurs between hydrogen and highly electronegative atoms such as oxygen, nitrogen, or fluorine
The positive nucleus of the hydrogen atom is attracted to the slightly negative charge on the other atom
Much stronger than other dipole-dipole attractions
Slide 49
Slide 50
Hydrogen bonding is an important factor that influences the structure and properties of water
One oxygen atom can be hydrogen bonded to as many as 6 other hydrogen atoms in other water molecules
