Chemistry Ch. 8

Chemistry Test 8

QuestionAnswer
What does a molecular formula tell us? A molecular formula will tell you the types of elements and how many atoms present per molecule.
What are the types of models for a molecule? -Molecular Formula. -Structural Formula. -Space-Filling. -Perspective. -Ball-and-Stick.
A single bond ends in... -ane.
A double bond ends in... -ene.
A triple bond ends in... -yne.
Give the number and prefix for 1-5. 1: Mono- 2: Di- 3: Tri- 4: Tetra- 5: Penta-
Give the number and prefix for 6-10. 6: Hexa- 7: Hepta- 8: Octa- 9: Nona- 10: Deca-
***Instead of one atom transferring electrons to anion(s), covalent bonds.... Share electrons.
What is a coordinate covalent bond? To help one atom, the other atom will donate more electrons.
Define a polyatomic ion. Most contain both covalent and coordinate covalent bonds. Contains both covalent and ionic bonds.
What are the exceptions to the octet rule? -Cannot be satisfied when the compound’s number of valence electrons is an odd number Nitrogen dioxide Chlorite and nitrogen monoxide -Even number: Boron with fluorine.
What are Bond Dissociation Energies? -Energy required to break the bonds between two covalently bonded atoms. -Measured in kJ/mol. -More energy= stronger bond.
Define Resonance Structures. Used to show the bonding that cannot adequately be shown with a single structure -Double headed arrows are used to connect resonance structures.
What's the difference between molecular orbitals and covalent bonds? Molecular orbitals- Belongs to a molecule as a whole Covalent bond- Bonding orbital.
What is a sigma bond? Symmetrical around the axis connecting two atomic nuclei.
What are pi bonds? Side-by-side overlap of atomic p-orbitals (sausage shaped regions above and below axis).
What is molecular polarity? The uneven distribution of molecular charge.
What determines molecular polarity? The polarity of each bond, along with the geometry of the molecule.
What are the two parts of molecular polarity (definitions)? Molecule: -Atoms held together by a bond Polarity: -Uneven distribution of charge.
What does the VSEPR Theory do? Helps predict the geometries (shape) of more-complicated molecules by Considering all the locations of all electron pairs surrounding the bonded atoms.
What is the VSEPR Theory? States that repulsion between the sets of valence-level electrons surrounding an atom causes these sets to be oriented as far apart as possible. -The shared electrons are oriented as far away from each other as possible.
What is ABE? We represent the central atom with the letter A, atoms bonded to the central atom with the letter B, and the lone-pair electrons with the letter E.
What is hybridization? The mixing of two or more atomic orbitals of similar energies on the same atom to produce new orbitals of equal energies.
Define hybrid orbitals. Orbitals of equal energies produced by the combination of two or more orbitals on the same atom
Define intermolecular force. The forces of attraction between molecules.
Define molecular polarity. Polar molecules act as tiny dipoles because of their uneven charge distribution.
Define dipole. Is created by equal but opposite charges that are separated by a short distance.
Define dipole-dipole. Forces of attraction between polar molecules.
Define Hydrogen bonding. A hydrogen atom is bonded to a highly electronegative atom. Particularly strong type of dipole-dipole force, explains the unusually high boiling points of some hydrogen-containing compounds
Define London Dispersion Forces. Resulting from the constant motion of electron and the creation of instantaneous dipoles.
How are dipole's represented? By an arrow with a head pointing toward the negative pole and a crossed tail situated at the positive pole.
How are dipole molecules? Far? Close? Forces are short-range forces, acting only between nearby molecules.
_______ _______ is a special case of dipole-dipole forces. Hydrogen Bonding.
For molecules containing more than two atoms, molecular polarity depends on... Both the polarity and the orientation of each bond.
What makes Hydrogen Bonds make the connection highly polar? The large electronegativity differences between hydrogen atoms and fluorine, oxygen, or nitrogen.
What is Hydrogen Bonding represented by? Usually representing by dotted lines connecting the hydrogen-bonded hydrogen to the unshared electron pair of the electronegative atom
Go into detail about London Dispersion Forces. Electrons are in continuous motion, creating an instantaneous uneven distribution. Create a positive pole on one part and a negative pole on the other side. The temporary dipole can induce a dipole in an adjacent atom.
Network solids are very... Stable.

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.
