Quiz #4 Vocabulary

QuestionAnswer
Electronegativity The ability oif an atom to attract electrons in a covalent bond. Dependent upon: charge on nucleus, distance of outer shell electrons form the nucleus, and amount of shielding from inner shell electrons.
Pauling Scale Cesium is lowest at 0.7 and Flourine is highest at 4.0 (Nobel Gases are exempt)
Non-polar Covalent Bond A bond in which the electrons are attracted equally by two atoms, both atoms have the same electronegativity.
Polar Covalent Bond A bond in which the electrons are attracted mopre strongly by one atom than the other. Sets up an uneven charge distribution in the bond, atoms have different electronegattivities.
Dipole A molecule that is electrically unsymmetrical causing it to be oppositely charged at two points. Only applies to covalently bonded atoms.
Polar Molecule A molecule is said to be polar if its centers of negative and positive charge do not coincide.
A covalent bond between two atoms of different electronegativity is . . . always polar.
A covalent bond between two atoms of identical electronegativity is always . . . non-polar.
A molecule is non-polar if . . . the sum of the vectors representing bond polarity is zero.
A molecule is polare if . . . the sum of the vectors representing bond polarity is not zero.

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.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
