CHEM1211 Exam 2
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Ionic bonds | Oppositely chard ions (metal+nonmetal, cation+anion) - Electrons are transferred |
| Covalent bonds | Electrons are shared by atoms (between nonmetals) |
| Charge of Zn | 2+ (Zinc) |
| Charge of Cd | 2+ (Cadmium) |
| Charge of Ag | 1+ (Silver) |
| Which is written first in an ionic compound formula? | Cation |
| When to use -ide? | Ionic compound that have cations with only one oxidation state |
| When to use Roman numerals? | Elements with multiple possible oxidation states |
| Solution | Solute+solvent |
| Solute | Substance dissolved in a solvent |
| Solvent | Dissolving medium in a solution |
| Aqueous solutions | A solution in which water is the dissolving medium or solvent |
| Electrolytes | Ionic compounds and acids/bases |
| Nonelectrolytes | Covalent molecules and organic molecules |
| Strong electrolytes | Substances that are completely ionized when dissolved in water, conduct electricity very well |
| Weak electrolytes | Substances that exhibit slight ionization when dissolved in water; conducts some electricity, but not much |
| NH3 and amines | Weak bases |
| Nonelectrolytes | Substances that exhibit no ionization when dissolved in water; no electrical conductivity |
| Alcohols | Simple organic compound, denoted by an -OH functional group |
| What are the four different organic compounds | Alkhanes, carboxylic acids, alcohols, and amines |
| Organic compound | Carbon-hydrogen containing molecules that can also have oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, etc. |
| Amines | Simple organic compound, containing carbon-nitrogen bonds |
| Carboxylic acid | Simple organic compound, denoted by a -COOH functional group |
| Alkanes | Simplest class of organic molecules, only containing carbon and hydrogen |
| Acid | Molecules that have at least one H+ ion attached to an anion, and if the molecule is dissolved in water |
| Nomenclature for if acid does not contain oxygen | Hydro prefix and -ic suffix |
| Nomenclature for if acid does contain oxygen (-ate) | -ic |
| Nomenclature for if acid does contain oxygen (-ite) | -ous |
| Spectator ions | The ions that are present in a solution that do not need to participate directly in a reaction |
| Net ionic equation | An equation for a reaction |
| Empirical | Simplest whole number ratio of atoms in a compound |
| Molecular formula | The exact formula of a molecule; when determining this the molar mass is needed |
| Hydration/Ionization reactions | When an ionic compound goes into an aqueous solution (is hydrated), it breaks up into individual ions |
