  2. Fluorine compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorine_compounds

    The covalent radius of fluorine of about 71 picometers found in F 2 molecules is significantly larger than that in other compounds because of this weak bonding between the two fluorine atoms. [9] This is a result of the relatively large electron and internuclear repulsions, combined with a relatively small overlap of bonding orbitals arising ...

  3. Covalent radius of fluorine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Covalent_radius_of_fluorine

    The covalent radius is defined as half the bond lengths between two neutral atoms of the same kind connected with a single bond. By this definition, the covalent radius of F is 71 pm. However, the F-F bond in F 2 is abnormally weak and long. Besides, almost all bonds to fluorine are highly polar because of its large electronegativity, so the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonding_in_solids

    A solid with extensive hydrogen bonding will be considered a molecular solid, yet strong hydrogen bonds can have a significant degree of covalent character. As noted above, covalent and ionic bonds form a continuum between shared and transferred electrons; covalent and weak bonds form a continuum between shared and unshared electrons.

  5. Valence bond theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valence_bond_theory

    For example, in the case of the F 2 molecule, the FF bond is formed by the overlap of p z orbitals of the two F atoms, each containing an unpaired electron. Since the nature of the overlapping orbitals are different in H 2 and F 2 molecules, the bond strength and bond lengths differ between H 2 and F 2 molecules.

    Covalent bonding first comes to prominence in the tetrafluorides: those of zirconium, hafnium [108] [109] and several actinides [110] are ionic with high melting points, [111] [note 11] while those of titanium, [114] vanadium, [115] and niobium are polymeric, [116] melting or decomposing at no more than 350 °C (662 °F). [117]

  7. Covalent bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Covalent_bond

    A covalent bond is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electrons to form electron pairs between atoms. These electron pairs are known as shared pairs or bonding pairs . The stable balance of attractive and repulsive forces between atoms, when they share electrons , is known as covalent bonding. [ 1 ]
