Ionic and Covalent
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| ionic compounds do this with valence electrons | transfer |
| covalent compounds do this with valence electrons | share |
| naming of covalent compounds | use prefixes to name |
| naming of ionic compounds | no prefixes to name |
| prefix meaning 6 | hexa |
| prefix meaning 7 | hepta |
| overall charge of ionic and covalent compounds | neutral |
| ions used in ionic compounds | cation + anion |
| ions used in covalent compounds | 2 anions OR 1 anion + 1 metalloid |
| prefix never placed on the first element of covalent compound | mono |
| prefix meaning 10 | deca |
| prefix meaning 9 | nona |
| sharing 6 electrons (3 dashes) | triple covalent bond |
| sharing 4 electrons (2 dashes) | double covalent bond |
| sharing 2 electrons (1 dash) | single covalent bond |
| charge of cations | positive charge |
| charge of anions | negative charge |
| overall charge of ionic and covalent compounds | neutral charge |
| when 1 atom provides both shared electrons | coordinate covalent bond |
| states that 2 is the stable number of valence electrons | duplet rule |
| states that 8 is the stable number of valence electrons | octet rule |
| unequal sharing of valence electrons | polar covalent bond |
| equal sharing of valence electrons | non-polar covalent bond |
| ability to attract valence electrons in a compound | electronegativity |
| meaning 2 atoms | diatomic |
| meaning 4 atoms | tetratomic |
| meaning 8 atoms | octatomic |
| number that tells how many valence electrons the element has | group number |
| number that indirectly tells the total number of electrons | atomic number |
| change in the number of electrons | ion |
| prefix meaning 5 | penta |
| prefix meaning 3 | tri |
| energy needed to break a covalent bond | bond disassociation energy |
