p-Block Elements (Bonding Trends) Ionic Infinite Oligomeric (Polar-Covalent and Polarized-Ionic) Molecular (Polar-Covalent and Covalent) No known compounds
p-Block Elements (Bonding) Ability to Increase Coordination Number Depends On: – Cation size – Cation Lewis Acidity Molecular Geometries and Structures: – VSEPR works most of the time – Multiple Bonding – Catenation
