hr Model: Visualizes electrons orbiting the nucleus in fixed shells. Quantum Mechanical Model: Describes electrons as wave functions, giving a probabilistic view of their positions (orbitals). Understanding electron configuration helps predict an element’s reactivity, bo
nation Bonds Formed when a central atom bonds to molecules or ions with lone pairs. Common in coordination complexes. Intermolecular Forces Forces between molecules, including hydrogen bonding, dipole-dipole interactions, and London dispersion forces. These influence physical properties like
sk Rising interest rates can decrease bond prices. Laddering maturities and holding bonds to maturity can help minimize this impact. 2. Credit Risk The issuer may default on payments. Choosing high-quality bonds and diversifying across issuers reduce this risk. 3. Inflation Risk In
