The most abundant compound in most living things is? Water
Atoms are composed of what three subatomic particles? Protons, neutrons, electrons
A substance with a pH of 4 is called? An acid
What type of electron is available to form bonds? Valence
Ionic bonds form between elements that have _________ charges. Opposite charges
What atoms make up a molecule of water? And How many of each? Two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen
If an atom contains 14 protons and 15 neutrons, its atomic number is what? 14
The space surounding the nucleus of an atom contains which subatomic particles? Electrons
What is the primary factor that determines the polarity of a bond between atoms? The difference in the relative attraction of electrons to each atom
A covalent bond is formed as the result of ______________ electrons. Sharing electrons
Isotopes are atoms of the same element with the same number of protons and __________ of neutrons. Different Numbers
Why do noble gases not form bonds? Their outer energy levels are full
What are the uses of radioactive isotopes? Used to treat cancer and kill bacteria that spoils food, determine age of rocks and fossils, used as "tracers" to follow movement of substances inside organisms
What is the definition of valence electrons? Valence electrons are involved in bonding.
If an atom contains 5 protons, 6 neutrons, and 5 electrons, its mass number would be? 11
What type of ion forms when an atom loses electrons? (charge?) Positive
When hydrogen and oxygen combine to form water, water is what? A product or reactant? Product

In a water molecule, shared electrons spend more time around the oxygen atom then the hydrogen atoms. As a result, the oxygen atom is what? Slightly negative
Three particles that make up atoms are? Protons, neutrons, and electrons
What is the maximum number of covalent bonds that can formed between a single nitrogen atom and 1 or more hydrogen atoms? 4
As part of an experiment, a student adds 20 ml of 5% Sodium Hydroxide solution (s strong base) to 100 ml of Water. What is the most likely result? What happens to the concentration of H+ ion and OH ions? the concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) will increase,
A molecule that has a partial positive charge on one side and a partial negative charge on the other side is called? A Polar Molecule
Solutions that contain concentrations of H+ ions lower than pure water are called? are bases
The bond formed when two atoms share a pair of electrons is called ? Covalent bond
Breaking which type of bond would require the most energy? Covalent, Ionic or Hydrogen bond? Covalent
The electrons of an atom are found where in the atom? Occupy the space surrounding the nucleus
In a chemical reaction, atoms are? Rearranged
Carbon-14 is a radioactive isotope used to determine the age of ancient objects composed of organic matter. Carbon-12 and carbon-13 are other isotopes. The number of what subatomic particles varies among these carbon isotopes? neutrons
An atom that has gained or lost electrons is called? An Ion

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
