Vocabulary Ch 4: Chemistry an Introduction Timberlake

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Question
Answer
Anion   Any negatively charged ion  
🗑
Bent   shape of molecule with 2 bonded atoms and 2 lone pairs  
🗑
Cation   Any positively charged ion  
🗑
Dipole   separation of positive and negative charges in polar bond, arrow indicates the more negative  
🗑
Dipole-Dipole Attraction   Attractive forces between oppositely charged ends of polar molecule  
🗑
Dispersion Forces   Weak dipole bonding that results in momentary polarization of non polar molecules in a substance  
🗑
Double Bond   Sharing of 2 pairs of electrons by two atoms  
🗑
Electronegativity   Relative ability of an element to attract electrons in a bond  
🗑
Hydrogen Bond   Attraction between a partially positive H and a strong electronegative: F, O or N  
🗑
Ion   Atom or group of atoms having an electrical charge because of a loss/gain of an electron  
🗑
Ionic Charge   Difference between number of protons and electrons in an ion  
🗑
Molecule   smallest unit of two or more atoms held together by covalent bond  
🗑
Nonpolar covalent bond   Covalent bond with equally shared electrons. Electronegativity: 0.0-0.4  
🗑
Nonpolar molecule   molecule has only nonpolar bonds or dipoles cancel  
🗑
Octet   8 valence electrons  
🗑
Octet Rule   Elements in Groups 1A-7A reacts with others to achieve a noble gas arrangement, typically 8 valence electrons  
🗑
Polar Covalent Bond   Electrons shared unequally between atoms. Electronegativity: 0.4-1.8  
🗑
Polar Molecule   Molecule where dipoles do not cancel  
🗑
Polyatomic Ion   Group of covalently bonded nonmetals that has an overall electrical charge  
🗑
Triple Bond   Sharing of 3 pairs of electrons by 2 atoms  
🗑
Valence-Shape Electron-Pair Repulsion Theory (VSEPR)   theory that predicts the shape of molecules by placing electron pairs on central atom as far apart as possible to minimize the mutual repulsion of the electron  
🗑


   

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.
