Question
Answer
what is chemical bonding   the joining of atoms to form a new substance  
🗑
what is a chemical bond   a bond that forms when 2 atoms join  
🗑
how do chemical bonds form   when electrons in atoms react  
🗑
what can happen to electrons in an atom when a chemical bond forms   they can be shaared, lost, or gained  
🗑
where are electrons found   outside the nucleus in layers called energy levels  
🗑
how many electrons can the first energy level hold   2  
🗑
how many electrons can the second and third energy levels hold   8  
🗑
do all electrons in an atom interact to form bonds   no, only valence electrons  
🗑
what is a valence electron   an electron in the outermost enegry level  
🗑
what determines what kinds of bonds an atom can form   how many valence elctrons it has  
🗑
what is an atomic number   tells you how many protons and electrons are in an atom of an element  
🗑
do any elements have the same number of protons   no  
🗑
what does the number of protons in an atom equal   number of electrons  
🗑
if atom's atomic number is 14, how many valence electrons are in the 3rd level   4  
🗑
when is an atom most stable   when the outer energy level is full  
🗑
why do atoms bond with one another   to fill the outer energy level  
🗑
what are ionic bonds   bonds that form when valence electrons are transferred from 1 atom to the other  
🗑
when is an atom most stable   when the outer energy level is full  
🗑
why do atoms bond with one another   to fill the outer energy level  
🗑
what are ionic bonds   bonds that form when valence electrons are transferred from 1 atom to the other  
🗑
what kind of charge does an electron have   negative  
🗑
what kind of charge do protns have   positive  
🗑
when is an atom neutral   when the protons and electrons are equal  
🗑
what is an ion   a charged particle when the protons and electrons aren't even  
🗑
how does an ion become positive   when an atom loses electrons  
🗑
what is needed for the attraction between the electron and the proton to be broken   energy  
🗑
what makes an ion become positive   the forming of negative ions during ionic bonds  
🗑
why is it easier to for nonmetals to gain electrons   they have a fuller outermost energy level  
🗑
what does the name of a negative ion formed from an element end in   -ide  
🗑
when does an atom release more energy   when it can easily gain electrons  
🗑
what are the elements in group 17   halogens  
🗑
what does a halogen atom give off when it gains an electron   lots of energy  
🗑
why do ionic bonds form   positive ions are attracted to negative ions  
🗑
why is the compound that ions form neutral when the ions themselves are charged   charges of 2 ions cancel out  
🗑
what is a crystal   a hard solid with flat faces and straight edges  
🗑
what is a crystal lattice   a repeating three-dimensional pattern of positive and negative ions  
🗑
what are covalent bonds   a bond that forms when atoms share electrons  
🗑
what do covalent bonds form from   atoms of nonmetals  
🗑
how do electrons behave in covalent bonds   they move between the two atoms  
🗑
what are molecules   atoms that join with each other by covalent bonds  
🗑
what are most molecules made of   atoms of 2 or more elements  
🗑
what is the smallest piece of a covalent compound   a molecule  
🗑
what is a diatomic molecule   a molecule made up of only 2 bonded elements  
🗑
what is a diatomic element   when the two bonded elements are the same element  
🗑
in a diatomic molecule, what are each of the shared electrons counted as   valence electrons  
🗑
what determines howe many covalent bonds a molecule has   the number of shared pairs of electrons  
🗑
how many valence electrons does carbon have   4  
🗑
what is a metallic bond   bond formed by the attraction between positively charged metal ions and the electrons around the ions  
🗑
what can valence lectrons do in a metallic bond   they can move throughout the metal  
🗑
why can a wire conduct an electric current when it is connected to an electrical source   the valence electrons are free to move throughout the wire  
🗑
why does metal not break no matter how the shape is altered   atoms can be rearranged because electrons move around freely, the valence electrons are constantly moving around the metal ions, and the movement maintains the metallic bond  
🗑
what is ductility   the ability to be shaped into long, thin wires  
🗑
what is malleability   the ability to be hammered into thin sheets  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
