Question
Answer
the first ionisation energy of an element   is the energy required to remove one electron from each atom in one mole of gaseous atoms to form one mole of gaseous 1+ ions.  
🗑
electron shielding   is the repulsion between electrons in different inner shells. shielding reduces the net attractive force from the positive nucleus on the outer shell electrons.  
🗑
Successive ionisation energies   are a measure of the energy required to remove each electron in turn  
🗑
the second ionisation energy   is the energy required to remove one electron from each ion in one mole of gaseous 1+ ions to from one mole of gaseous 2+ ions.  
🗑
a shell   is a group of atomic orbitals with the same principal quantum number, also known as a main energy level.  
🗑
an atomic orbital   is a region within an atom that can hold up to two electrons, with opposite spins.  
🗑
a sub-shell   is a group of the same type of atomic orbitals (s, p, d or f) within a shell.  
🗑
ionic bond   the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions.  
🗑
covalent bond   a bond formed by a shared pair of electrons  
🗑
metallic bond   the electrostatic attraction between positive metal ions and delocalised electrons.  
🗑
a group   is a vertical column in the periodic table. Elements in the same group have similar chemical properties and their atoms have the same number of outer shell electrons  
🗑
a dative covalent bond or coordinate bond   is a shared pair of electrons which has been provided by one of the bonding atoms only.  
🗑
electronegativity   is a measure of the attraction of a bonded atom for the pair of electrons in a covalent bond.  
🗑
a permanent dipole   is a small charge difference across a bond that results from a difference in the electronegativities of the bonded atoms.  
🗑
an intermolecular force   is an attractive force between neighbouring molecules  
🗑
a permanent dipole- dipole force   is a weak attractive force between permanent dipoles in neighbouring polar molecules  
🗑
van der Waals forces   are attractive forces between induced dipoles in neighbouring molecules  
🗑


   

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.
