When elements form bonds, it changes their? chemical and physical properties
What is a binary compound? a compound composed of two elements
What is an oxidation number? a number that tells you how many electrons an a tom has lost, gained, or shared to become stable.
What is a polyatomic ion? a positively or negatively charged, covalently bonded group of atoms
Even though compounds are made from charged ions, the compound itself is? neutral
How is a covalent molecule named? Use the greek prefix to indicate the number of atoms involved
An atom that has gained or lost electrons is called an? ion
What tells what elements make up a compound and the ratios of the atoms of those elements? chemical formula
A molecule that has a positive end and a negative end is what type of molecule? polar
What type of bond forms between atoms when they share electrons? covalent
A positive or negative number that is assigned to an element to show its combining ability in a compound is an? oxidation number
