| A | B |
| do not break into ions | The reason molecular compounds don't conduct electricity |
| covalent | the usual type of bonds that form between two nonmetal ions |
| they do not mix | water is polar and oil is nonpolar |
| nonpolar | molecules that equally share valence electrons |
| mineral | naturally occurring solid with a crystal structure |
| halite, sulfur, mica, quartz | examples of minerals |
| halite | broken pieces have the same shape as bigger piece |
| bonds | determine the properties of a mineral |
