Chemical Bonds |
answer
the attractive force that holds two atoms together in a more complex unit. |
question
Ionic Bond |
answer
a chemical bond formed through the transfer of one or more electrons from one atom or group of atoms to another atom or group of atoms |
question
Ionic Compound |
answer
a compound in which ionic bonds are present |
question
Covalent bond |
answer
is a chemical bond formed through the sharing of one or more pairs of electrons between two atoms |
question
Covalent compound |
answer
A molecular compound is a compound in which covalent bonds are present. |
question
Valence Electrons |
answer
is an electron in the outermost electron shell of a representative element or noble-gas element. Participates in bonding. |
question
Lewis electron dot symbol |
answer
The chemical symbol of an element surrounded by dots equal in number to the number of valence electrons present in atoms of the element. |
question
Group number |
answer
an identifier used to describe the column of the standard periodic table in which the element appears. Example: Group 1: alkali metals Group 2: alkaline earth metals Group 17: halogens Group 18: noble gases |
question
Outermost electron shell |
answer
The valence electron shell where bonding takes place |
question
Cation |
answer
Positive Ion |
question
Anion |
answer
Negative Ion |
question
Octet Rule |
answer
In forming compounds, atoms of elements lose, gain, or share electrons in such a way as to produce a noble-gas electron configuration for each of the atoms involved |
question
isoelectronic series |
answer
a group of atoms/ions that have the same number of electrons. Examples. N3-, O2-, F- |
question
ionic charge |
answer
the electrical charge of an ion |
question
binary ionic |
answer
is an ionic compound in which one element present is a metal and the other element present is a nonmetal. The metal is always present as the positive ion, and the nonmetal is always present as the negative ion. |
question
ternary ionic compounds |
answer
consists of three compounds usually an element (i.e. metal) and a polyatomic ion. e.g. of ploy atomic ion Nitrate (NO3), Chlorate(ClO3), Chloric (ClO4), Sulphate (SO4) |
question
Chemical formula MxNy |
answer
? |
question
Polyatomic Ions |
answer
A polyatomic ion is a molecule made up of 2 or more atoms that bears ionic groups, that is, a molecule with a charge. |
question
How many bonds can O form? |
answer
2 bonds |
question
How many bonds can H form? |
answer
1 bond |
question
Dipoles |
answer
intermolecular force that occurs between polar molecules. |
question
lone pair of electrons |
answer
a lone pair is a valence electron pair which is not shared with another atom and is sometimes called a non-bonding pair. |
question
VSEPR Theory |
answer
a lone pair is a valence electron pair which is not shared with another atom and is sometimes called a non-bonding pair. |
question
Ab4 |
answer
tetrahydral |
question
AB3E |
answer
Pyramidal |
question
Ab2 |
answer
linear |
question
AB2E2 |
answer
angular or bent |
question
AB3 |
answer
trigonal planar |
question
Single Bonds Double Bonds Triple Bonds |
answer
bond with one pair of electrons bond with 2 bond with 3 |
question
sigma ? and pi ? bonds |
answer
.A sigma bond is just a single bond. 2.When you have a double bond, you have 1 sigma bond and 1 pi bond. A pi bond is any bond formed after the single bond is formed |

question
CO |
answer
Carbon monoxide |
question
CO2 |
answer
Carbon dioxide |
question
hybridization |
answer
the idea that atomic orbitals fuse to form newly hybridized orbitals, which in turn, influences molecular geometry and bonding properties. |

question
endothermic |
answer
a process or reaction in which the system absorbs energy from its surroundings in the form of heat |
question
endergonic |
answer
the total amount of energy is a loss (it takes more energy to start the reaction than what you get out of it) |
