metal, nonmetal
in a covalent bond, shared electrons move within a space called a ___ ___
molecular orbital
a molecule is a neutrally charged group of atoms held together by one or more _______ _______
covalent bonds
how is a covalent bond formed
when electrons are shared by 2 elements on the molecular orbital
for an electron in an atojm to change from the ground state to an excited state....
energy must be absorbed
elements in a group have similar
properties
two which group of the periodic table to lithium and potassium belong
alkali metals
the elements in group 17 are known by what name
halogens
which is the best reason that the atomic radius generally increases in each group of elements?

-the nuclear charge increases
the number of neutrons -increases
-the number of energy levels increases
-a new octet
the number of energy levels increases
an electron that is found in the outermost energy level of an atom and determines an atoms chemical properties is called a
valence electron
Bohr
planetary model
the statement that only two electrons may occupy an oribital is known as
pauli's exclusion principle
the statement that electrons fill up lower energy levels before occupying higher levels is known as the
Aufbau Principle
Why does a water molecule have a bent shape?
oxygen attracts the shared pairs more strongly than either hydrogen does, making the molecule polar and bent. Because it is bent, the polarities do not cancel out

number in the calculation wiht the fewest sig figs
energy is transferred from hot water to a cup. this energy is in the form of ____
heat energy
two types of matter that are pure substances are ____ and _____
elements and compounds
the capacity to do work or produce light is known as
energy
a chemical reaction that releases energy is a ____ ____
exothermic reaction
the avg kinetic energy of the particles in a sample of matter is its
temp
during the process of a phase change, heat is being added to the substance, but the temp remains constant. using what you know about the law of conservation of energy, explain why the temp is constant during a phase change
during a phase change, (ice melting)i the energy from ehat is being used to make this change by breaking up particfles not warming the substanced. Energy is never created nor destroyed, so in this case all the energy must be used to complete the process of ice --> H2O
