Chemical Bonding Graphic Organizer Rubric & Directions

You will be creating a graphic organizer based on the 3 different types of bonding we
have already learned in this class. The point of this organizer is to help you remember the
differences between the types of bonds, when they occur, and how they are formed.

Directions:
1) Identify the 3 different types of bonds
2) Explain how they are formed/ what holds them together
3) Are they polar? Non-polar? Are their charges on the ions?
4) Draw a picture, or show a Lewis dot structure, of the types of bonding that occurs

Your graphic organizer can be a table, chart, or a Venn diagram. Be creative! You can use
your text book, your notes, and online sources or videos to help you. If you use an online
source or video, make sure you cite your source at the end of your assignment.
