Question | Answer |
---|---|
Chemical Compound that uses prefixes to name it | covalent |

neutral group of atoms joined with covalent bonds | molecule |
prefix meaning 6 | hexa |
2 parts of a covalent bond | anion + anion |
2 parts of an ionic bond | cation + anion |
prefix meaning 3 | tri |
Unequal sharing of valence electrons | polar covalent bond |
prefix meaning 4 | tetra |

formula that shows only the type of atoms and their amount | molecular formula |
formula that shows the type of bonds and unshared electron pairs | structural formula |
Energy needed to remove valence electrons from an atom | ionization energy |
Ability to attract valence electrons from nearby atoms | electronegativity |
prefix for 5 | penta |
