chapter 3-

QuestionAnswer
Ion Atom or group of atoms with a charge
Cation Ions with positive charge, typically metals. Lose an electron
Anion Ions with a negate charge, typically nonmetals, gain electrons
Transition metals Metals without a set charge, in-between metals and nonmetals
Polyatomic ions Special ions that have multiple atoms and a set charge (ex No3)
Monoatomic ion Ion made of one atom with a charge (ex 02-, F1-, Mg2+)
Octet rule Atoms gain or lose valance electrons to be stable. End up with 8.
Chemical groups Elements with he same valance electrons. in the same vertical collum (Up and Down)
Compound 2 or more combined elements
Ionic compound A metal and a nonmetal forming
Covalent Bond A bond between 2 nonmetals, sharing electrons (ex O2, N2, H2)
Single bond a bond between 2 valance electrons
Double Bond a bond between 4 valance elctrons
triple bond a bond between 6 valance electrons
Molecule Covalent bonds, without a charge (ie Nh3)
Formula weight the weight of each chemical added together
Molecular weight Same as formula weight, used for Molecules
Molar mass The weight of one mole for any chemical (one mole of carbon is 12amu)
Organic compounds Compounds that have a bond between carbon and hydrogen (C-H)
Molecular Formula Chemical symbols and number to show bonds (ie Nh3, H20, (So3)4)
Lewis Structure A model that uses electron-dot structures. Pairs of dots or lines represent bonding pairs.
Lewis Structure Steps 1.Calculate valence electrons 2. Write chemical symbols and bonds 3. add "NonBonding" pairs
Skeletal Structure Shows organic compounds bonds. only the bonding of the carbon framework. Each line represents a C2 bond (carbon to carbon)
Electronegativity The ability of an atom to attract bonding electrons (or the pull of electrons in a bond) Ex:HF
Covalent bond atoms sharing a pair of valence electrons
Polar covalent bond Covalent bonds with different electro neg activities (partially negative and partially positive, like a battery)
Equal bond type less than .5 electroneg (ex C-C) aka "NON polar"
Unequal bond type .5-1.9 electro neg (ex C-O)
Opposite Bond type more than 1.9 electroneg
Polar Covalent bond arrows Arrows that represent where the electron is being pulled towards
Polar Bond Tips Polar bond exists when hydrogen or carbon atoms are attached to 1. Nitrogen 2. oxygen 3. fluoride 4. chlorine
Molecular Geometry Three-dimensional arrangement of molecular bonds
Vsepk Theory A theory of procedures for predicting molecular geometry. V-Valence. S-shell. E-electron. P-pair. R-Repulsion.
Bond areas the 4 electrons in a double bond, the 6 in a triple bond and the 2 in a single bond are in the same area
Electron groups the "area" in which bonds take place. This applies to bonds AND non bonds (non-bonds like nh3)
Step 1 of Vsepr models draw the Lewis structure for the model
Step 2 of vsepr model determine the number of electron groups (Or the number of bond groups)
step 3 of vsepr model predict the group arrangement
Linear Model Two polar bonds, but in opposite directions (exC02)
Trigonal polar all 3 groups are bonding (ex BF3)
Angular(bent) trigonal one of the three isnt bonding (exSO2)
Tetrahedral 4 groups are bonding (ex Ch4)
Trigonal pyramidal Like a tetrahedral, but one pair isn't bonding (ex NH3)
Tetra Angular(bent) two nonbonding groups (ex H20)
Noncovalent interactions Interactions that do not involve sharing electrons
Permanent changes Hydrogen bond (nitrogenm oxygen or fluoride atom with a hydrogen atom
Dipole-dipole forces attraction of neighboring polar groups for one another
Dipole-dipole forces attraction of neighboring polar groups for one another
Permanent changes Hydrogen bond (nitrogenm oxygen or fluoride atom with a hydrogen atom
Dipole-dipole forces attraction of neighboring polar groups for one another

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.
