  3. Metallic bonding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metallic_bonding

    Metallic bonding is mostly non-polar, because even in alloys there is little difference among the electronegativities of the atoms participating in the bonding interaction (and, in pure elemental metals, none at all). Thus, metallic bonding is an extremely delocalized communal form of covalent bonding.

  4. Pi backbonding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pi_backbonding

    σ bonding from electrons in CO's HOMO to metal center d-orbital. π backbonding from electrons in metal center d-orbital to CO's LUMO. The electrons are partially transferred from a d-orbital of the metal to anti-bonding molecular orbitals of CO (and its analogs). This electron-transfer strengthens the metal–C bond and weakens the C–O bond.

  5. Bonding in solids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonding_in_solids

    Metallic bonding, which forms metallic solids; Weak inter molecular bonding, which forms molecular solids (sometimes anomalously called "covalent solids") Typical members of these classes have distinctive electron distributions, [2] thermodynamic, electronic, and mechanical properties. In particular, the binding energies of these interactions ...

  6. Metallophilic interaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metallophilic_interaction

    Previously, this type of interaction was considered to be enhanced by relativistic effects.A major contributor is electron correlation of the closed-shell components, [2] which is unusual because closed-shell atoms generally have negligible interaction with one another at the distances observed for the metal atoms.

  7. Amalgam (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amalgam_(chemistry)

    Zinc amalgam finds use in organic synthesis (e.g., for the Clemmensen reduction). [3] It is the reducing agent in the Jones reductor, used in analytical chemistry.Formerly the zinc plates of dry batteries were amalgamated with a small amount of mercury to prevent deterioration in storage.

  8. Valence bond theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valence_bond_theory

    Valence Bond theory describes chemical bonding better than Lewis Theory, which states that atoms share or transfer electrons so that they achieve the octet rule. It does not take into account orbital interactions or bond angles, and treats all covalent bonds equally. [ 8 ]

  9. Gold–aluminium intermetallic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gold–aluminium_intermetallic

    In microelectronics, these properties can cause problems in wire bonding. The main compounds formed are usually Au 5 Al 2 (white plague) and AuAl 2 (purple plague), both of which form at high temperatures, then Au 5 Al 2 and AuAl 2 can further react with Au to form more stable compound, Au 2 Al.
