"Bonding and Electron Configuration" for high school chemistry
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| a type of bond where valence electrons are transferred | ionic bond |
| a type of bond where valence electrons are shared | covalent bond |
| valence shell electron pair repulsion theory | VSEPR |
| describes the arrangement of electrons in an atom, ex: 1s2, 2s2, 2p5 | Electron Configuration |
| a negatively charged subatomic particle | Electron |
| electrons fill the lowest energy levels first and then move outward as they have more energy | aufbau principle |
| aka empty bus seat rule, electrons will not pair up within an orbital if there is another empty orbital in the same subshell | Hund's Rule |
| a specifically shaped area where electrons are found | orbital |
| a VSEPR molecule shape that is straight across, 1 bond, no lone pairs | linear |
| a VSEPR molecule shape that is at an angle with 2 bonds and 1 or 2 lone pairs | bent/angular |
| electrons spin in opposite directions within an orbital, one clockwise and one counterclockwise | pauli exclusion principle |
| an ionic compound has this type of strucure with regularly repeating ions | crystalline |
| a bond involving cations floating in a sea of electrons | metallic |
| a diagram for an atom showing the valence electrons as dots | lewis dot structure |
| an electron in the outer shell | valence electron |
