| More energy is required to break covalent bonds than | noncovalent interactions |
| Ionization | Strongly electronegative atoms capture electrons from other atoms |
| The atom that loses electron is | cation |
| The atom that gains electron is | anion |
| The attraction between fully charged ions is | termed an ionic bond |
| Hydrogen Bonding can occur between different molecules | or within the same molecule |
| Attraction of partially charged hydrogen (δ+) to unpaired electrons of another atom | Hydrogen Bonding |
| Hydrophilicity | Hydrogen bond interactions with water and polar compounds determine solubility of compound in water |
| Hydrophobic Interactions | Adherence of nonpolar molecules with one another in an aqueous environment |
| Van der Waals Forces | Attraction between electron clouds around atoms |
| Van der Waals Forces increase as | atoms approach one another |
| Importance of Weak Bonds | Participate in mediating complementarity interactions |
