Electronegativity increases across groups from left to right and up a period.
What is the EN range difference for a non-polar covalent bond?
0 - 0.4
What is the EN range difference for a polar covalent bond?
0.4 - 1.8
What is the EN range difference for an ionic bond?
anything > 1.8
The octet rule in VSEPR theory can be broken by which elelments?
Anything in period 3 or higher becasue elements in period 3 or higher have access to the d-subshell (the transition metal block).
Although the EN's on a molecule are going in equal and opposite directions, what specifically will make that molecule polar and not non-polar?
A lone pair of electrons on the central atom/element
What attractive forces are in polar molecules?
dipole-dipole
What attractive forces are in nonpolar covalent compunds?
dispersion forces
What are the requirements for a hydrogen bond?
molecule#1 must have a lone pair of electrons while molecule#2 must have a partial positive hydrogen polar bond.

What is a physical change of state? Can you describe molecule movement during different states and what actions are taking place during transition between states.
A physical change of state is an observed change without a change in composition of the same molecule. The following diagram descibes molecule motion and type of action from one state to another.
