This chapter starts off with the classification of solids, then discusses the various types of bonding or interaction in solids, including ionic bonding, metallic bonding, covalent bonding (band theory), and van der Waals interaction. Numerous examples are given for each type of bonding.
Keywords: band theory, crystal radii of ions, enthalpies of atomization, intermolecular interaction, intrinsic semiconductors, ionic liquid, ionic radii, melting points, metallic radii, semiconductors
