chemical bonding

we all know many types of chemical bonds exist. metallic, covalent, ionic and well basically alot. many types of forces also are guide these bonds. such as your famous van der waals forces of attraction, hydrogen bonds and electrostatic forces of attraction between oppositely charged ions.
these bonds are partially responsible for reactions that occur, of course its lattice, atoms involved and many other factors also contribute to reactions.

for example, giant ionic structures are soluble in water, but not in non-polar solvents. because of its favourable ion-dipole interactions between ions and water molecules, it leads to a release of energy which facilitates detachment of ions form ionic lattice for hydration.

over the course of time, i ve discovered a new bond. actually its probably a very old bond, but people dont really talk about it. i ll call it the z-bond.

probable reason why the z-bond is not classified under any TYS or textbook you find is because of its ability to take many forms, undergo many reactions, undertake different chemical/physical properties. it is because of its ability to vary itself like that in many different variables which makes it hard to classify specifically.

we all know (8-n) is the number of bonds a particular atom will form. however, z-bonds have one very specific property, that is in forming many many bonds.(ie. it is a very strong bond). z-bonds form between almost any two molecules. under different conditions and reagents for each molecule pair. unlike normal bond pairs, z-bonds dont just 'share valence electrons' or donate 'spare electrons'. z-bonds have the ability to allow its atom to lose its electronic configuration altogether, to form z-bonds. hence explaining why z-bonds are very strong. however, this strength can sometimes be associated with instability. i ll go into more detail for that later.

z-bonds like i said earlier, can form between almost any two molecules. in special cases, it can be more then 2. but i wont go into detail of that. anyway, z-bonds can associate it self with favourable ion-dipole interactions, to water-ion interactions to well just about anything. HOWEVER, these favourable interactions can only occur under certain conditions. as mentioned earlier, these vary on a case by case basis. which is why, z-bonds are sometimes associated with instability. ok im gonna stop on tat before people think i m crazy. lol. i m just trying to experiment stupid things.

go figure.

i passed my gp ct! ok its just a low pass, but i guess i shld be thankful it isnt a fail.
still waiting for other results.
got a match with cj on friday. goodness.
doughnuts?
more homework.
bball.
bball.
2.4.
more icing please. before therapist complains. haha.

ok i m blog more next time.
