Question
Answer
Thermosoftening polymers   forces between chains are easy to overcome. No crosslinks. Can melt +remould these plastics. Weak intermolecular forces  
🗑
Giant covalent structures   all atoms are bonded by strong covalent bonds. v. high melting +boiling points. dont conduct electricity. *Diamond, graphite, silicon dioxide  
🗑
Thermosetting polymers   have crosslinks. holds chains together in a solid structure. the polymer doesnt soften when its heated. they're strong, hard, rigid  
🗑
Properties of metals   high melting +boiling points. Good conductors of heat & electricity (cause of free electrons)  
🗑
Low density polythene   made by heating ethene to 200*c under high pressure. flexible-used for bags n bottles  
🗑
Ionic bonds   metal+non-metal donating. atoms become ions. high melting n boiling points. dissolve easy in water- carry electric current.  
🗑
High density polythene   made at lower temp +pressure (w/catalyst) more rigid n used for water n drainpipes  
🗑
simple molecular substances   forces of attraction between molecules are v weak. low melting n boiling points. dont conduct electricity.  
🗑
Ion?   when atoms lose or gain electrons. atom becomes charged.  
🗑
convalent bonding   sharing. strongest type of bond. non-metals  
🗑
calculating moles   no. of moles= (g)/Mr  
🗑
alloy?   is a mixture of two or more elements where at least one element is a metal  
🗑
diamond's structure   4 covalent bonds per carbon atom. the hardest natural substance.  
🗑
compounds?   chemically bonded elements  
🗑
Graphite pro   each carbon forms 3 bonds. creates layers-can slide. making it slippery soft. weak intermolecular forces between layers.  
🗑
isotopes?   different atomic forms of the same element which have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutons.  
🗑
delocalised   where electrons are free to move within structure, allows a charge to be carried  
🗑
alkene?   double bonds. unsaturated  
🗑
concentration   the amount of a substance  
🗑


   

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.
