Question
Answer
Atoms are usually most stable when they have a full 8 electrons in their valence level fulfills this   octet rule  
🗑
Large organic molecules that have unique properties   macromolecules  
🗑
What factors affect a molecules shape?   the number of bonds an atom forms affects the molecules shape  
🗑
Nonmetals with uneven electron negativities form what type of bonds?   polar covalent bonds  
🗑
Ions in a solution are called   electrolytes  
🗑
element that naturally occurs as 2 identical, bonded atoms or any particle consisting of 2 atoms   Diatomic element  
🗑
Why do atoms bond?   to obey the octet rule, to become more stable and follow the second law of thermodynamics  
🗑
How do electrolytes conduct electrical currents?   they have to be in a solution, makes them an excellent conductor of electricity  
🗑
What determines bond strength and bond type?   the difference in electronegativity of the elements  
🗑
Molecules that are partially charged on each end   polar diatomic molecules  
🗑
Which is stronger; ionic or covalent bonds?   ionic  
🗑
This group of elements have only one or two valence electrons   metals  
🗑
Which type of bonds DO NOT follow the octet rule?   metallic bonds  
🗑
List the properties of ionic compounds.   they can form bonds with metals and nonmetals  
🗑
An unbonded atom's ability to attract and hold electrons is its   electron affinity  
🗑
a bonded atom's ability to attract and hold electrons is its   electronegativity  
🗑
three-dimensional arrangement of atoms or ions   crystal lattice  
🗑
Electrons in metallic compounds are   are free  
🗑
How do the covalent compounds in our bodies show God's design   it shows that these things could only happen because he created us  
🗑
a molecule containing just 2 elements   Diatomic molecule  
🗑
Three properties of metal are   malleability, luster, thermal and electrical conductivity, ductility  
🗑
Metal bonds sharing free electrons   Free electron theory  
🗑
contains carbon and has at least one hydrogen atom   Organic compound.  
🗑
two non-metals share electrons to form bonds   Covalent Bonds  
🗑
low polarity, low melting and boiling point and liquid or gaseous at room temperature is what type of bond   Covalent Bonds  
🗑
formed between a metal and a non-metal. Non-metals are "stronger" than the metal and can get electrons very easily from the metal   Ionic Bonds  
🗑
high polarity, high melting and boiling point and solid at room temperature is what type of bond   Ionic Bonds  
🗑
Hydrogen chloride (HCI), poisonous gas, molecular is covalent or ionic or metallic?   covalent  
🗑
Calcium iodide (Cal2), yellowish white solid, high melting point, soluble in water is covalent or ionic or metallic?   ionic  
🗑
Ytterbium (Yb), silvery lustrous solid, ductile, malleable, high melting point is covalent or ionic or metallic?   metallic  
🗑
Bromine (Br), reddish brown liquid, electrical insulator, molecular is covalent or ionic or metallic?   covalent  
🗑
Magnesium oxide (MgO), powdery white solid, high melting point, electrical insulator is covalent or ionic or metallic?   ionic  
🗑
Aluminum (Al), silver white luster, ductile, good electrical conductor, insoluble   metallic  
🗑
what class of elements form a covalent compounds   nonmetals  
🗑
The smallest ratio of elements in an ionic compound that describes its chemical composition   formula unit  
🗑
form when each atom must share 3 electrons to complete it's octet   triple bond  
🗑
shares 2 pairs of electrons to form a double covalent bond   double bond  
🗑
diatomic elements form bonds with no polarity   nonpolar bonds  
🗑
metal atoms share electrons   metallic bond  
🗑
consist of covalently bonded molecules   covalent compounds  
🗑
pair of dots between the symbols that identifies a covalent bond   Lewis Structure (electron dot notation)  
🗑
What is the difference between eltronegativity and electron affinity?   electronegativity is a bonded atom's ability to attract and hold electrons is its  
🗑
What are two main ways atoms aquire a full outer energy level   sharing electrons and when atoms gain or lose electrons to gain a full octet  
🗑
Name and describe the model that accounts for metallic bonding   the electron sea theory (free electron theory) electrons are shared among all the other bonded atoms in the element  
🗑
How is electron dot notation notations useful for predicting the number of covalent bonds a nonmetal can form?   the number of unpaired dots is the number of covalent bonds the atom can form with other atoms  
🗑
What are the beneficial properties of covalent compounds as the main components of living organisms?   light, flexible, strong and do not easily dissolve  
🗑
Difference between electonegativity and electron affinity?   electronegativity varies it's place on the periodic table and its atomic number ;electron affinity is a measure of how well it attracts and holds electrons  
🗑
Why are covalent bonds between different elements always polar?   They have different electronegativities.  
🗑
what determines the shape of simple molecules   the number of bonds an atom forms  
🗑
how do metal atoms in the solids state most often arrange themselves   in a hexagonal closed package  
🗑
