Which electrons are most important
|
valence electrons
|
|
how do you quickly determine the number of valence electrons
|
the group number
|
|
Octet rule
|
atoms seek to achieve the configuration of noble gases (8 electrons)
|
|
how can you achieve the octet rule
|
gain or loose electrons
|
|
Cations
|
Atoms that loose electrons
(+) charge oxidation |
|
Which type of elements would be willing to lose and electron
|
those with only a few valence electrons
metals group 1 and 2 |
|
how do you know the number of electrons an atom is willing to gain or loose
|
oxidation number
|
|
Anions
|
atoms the gain electrons
(-) charge reduction |
|
What happens to the atomic radium if electrons are gained/lost
|
increased/decreased
|
|
Are Cations metals or non metals
|
Metals
|
|
Are Anions metals or non metals
|
non metals
|
|
Ionic Bonding
|
a transfer of electrons from one atom to another
|
|
What bonds or holds the compound together?
|
electrostatic forces
(+) and (-) charges |
|
Properties of Ionic Compounds
|
-crystalline solids at room temp
-arranged in 3D patterns -large attractive forces -very stable -high melting points -conduct electricity when dissolved in water |
|
Bonding in Metals
|
closely packed cations
not neutral atoms valence e- can move |
|
What type of ionization energy do metals have?
|
low - tend to loose electrons
|
|
Metallic Bonding
|
free floating valence electrons are attracted to protons
|
|
Crystalline structure
|
metal atoms are arranged in very compact and orderly patterns
|
|
Alloys
|
Mixtures that contain a metal and one or more 'other' elements
ex: Sterling silver - Silver and copper Bronze - Copper and tin Steel - iron, carbon, chrome, nickel Titanium - aluminum and vanadium |
|
Monatomic Ion
|
a single atom with a (+) or (-) charge
|
|
How can you determine the charges an atom can obtain
|
oxidation state
|
|
Binary Ionic Compounds
|
made of 2 elements, held together by iconic bonds, electrically neutral, formula - cation 1st anion 2nd
|
|
Polyatomic Ions
|
Ions that are made up of more than 1 atom, behave as a single unit, carry a charge, table e
|
|
Naming univalent cations
|
groups 1 and 2 write the name of the element followed by the word "ion"
|
|
Naming Univalent anions
|
group 15,16,17
the root name with an -ide and add "ion" |
|
Polyvalent Ions
|
Table e
