Question
Answer
What are some key differences between ionic and covalent compounds?   * Ionic compounds have high melting and boiling points *Covalent compounds have low melting and boiling points. *Ionic compounds conduct electricity when melted *Covalent compounds are poor electrical conductors.  
🗑
Provide an example of an ionic and covalent compound.   * Example of an ionic compound: RbF * Example of a covalent compound: CO2  
🗑
Are ionic compounds usually solids, liquids or gases?   Solids.  
🗑
What state(s) are most common for covalent compounds?   Gases, liquids, or soft solids.  
🗑
Do ionic compounds have high or low melting/boiling points? Explain why.   High melting/boiling points because many have more atoms in each molecule and most have a stronger force between molecules.  
🗑
Do covalent compounds have high or low melting/boiling points? Explain why.   Low melting/boiling points because they have only a few atoms and the forces between molecules is weak.  
🗑
Classify each of the following as a chemical or physical change: a. Rust forming on a coin? b. Metal reacting with an acid to produce hydrogen gas: c. Making popsicles in the freezer: d. Baking bread e. Chopping wood f. Adding sugar to coffee   a. chemical change b. chemical change c. physical change d. chemical change e. physical change f. physical change  
🗑
Name these simple ionic compounds: a. CaCl2 b. K2O c. Sc2S3 d. Li3P   a. Calcium chloride b. Potassium oxide c. Scandium sulphide d. Lithium phosphide  
🗑
Write formulas for these simple ionic compounds: a. Beryllium oxide b. Sodium sulphide c. Magnesium nitride d. Zinc chloride   a. BeO b. Na2S c. Mg3N2 d. ZNCl2  
🗑
Name these ionic compounds (containing a multivalent ion) a. FeO b. Ni2S3 c. CrCl2 d. TiSe2   a. Iron (II) oxide b. Nickel (III) sulphide c. Chromium (II) chloride) d.Titanium (IV) selenide  
🗑
Write formulas for these ionic compounds (containing multivalent ions): a. Cobalt (III) bromide b. Chromium (II) oxide c. Niobium (V) fluoride d. Molybdenum (II) nitride   a. CoBr2 b. CrO c. NbF5 d. Mo3N2  
🗑
Name these ionic compounds (containing polyatomic ions): a. NH3Cl b. Ca(OH)2 c. K2CO3 d. Mg3(PO4)2   a. Ammonium chloride b. Calcium hydroxide c. Potassium carbonate d. Magnesium phosphate  
🗑
What is a compound?   A pure substance made of two or more elements that are chemically combined.  
🗑
What is an element?   A pure substance that cannot be broken down into simpler substances (because it is composed of only one kind of atom).  
🗑
What is a covalent compound?   A compound in which two or more atoms combine by sharing electrons. Water (H2O) is an example.  
🗑
What is an ionic substance?   A compound in which oppositely charged ions combine due to mutual attraction. Table salt (NaCl) is an example.  
🗑
What is an ionic lattice?   A repeating pattern of positive and negative ions within an ionic compound.  
🗑
What is a polyatomic ion?   An ion composed of more than one type of atom combined by covalent bonds.  
🗑
What is an exothermic reaction?   A reaction that produces energy usually in the form of light or heat.  
🗑
What is an endothermic reaction?   A reaction that absorbs energy.  
🗑
What is a chemical bond?   A chemical bond is...connections between two or more atoms holding them together.  
🗑
What is a precipitate?   A solid substance that forms in a solution.  
🗑
