Ionisation energies

QuestionAnswer
What is an ionisation energy? The energy required to remove one electron from each atom in one mole of gaseous atoms to form one mole of gaseous 1+ ions
What is electron shielding? The repulsion between electrons in different inner shells
What 3 factors affect ionisation energies? Atomic radius, nuclear charge and electron shielding
How many electrons can an s-orbital hold? 2 electrons
How many electrons can a p-orbital hold? 6 electrons
What is an ionic bond? The electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions
What is a covalent bond? A bond formed by a shared pair of electrons
What is a lone pair? An outer-shell of electrons not involved in chemical bonding
What is a dative covalent bond? A shared pair of electrons provided by only one of the bonding atoms

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.
