IONS:
|
When an atom gains or loses electrons
|
|
Ionic bonds usually happen between:
|
metal and non-metal elements
|
|
Writing an element as an ion:
|
Element+ charge requirement
e.g. Ca 2+ += number of electrons they want to give up; --- = number of electrons they want to receive) |
|
Ionic bonds have a:
|
High melting point

|
Electrolytes
|
|
Covalent bond:
|
When atoms are sharing electrons
|
|
Covalent bonds are still trying to achieve:
|
Octet (8 electrons in outermost shell)
|
|
The term molecule only applies to:
|
Covalent bonds
|
|
Polarity exist when there is:
|
Unequal sharing of electrons (electronegativity) in a covalent bond (oxygen for example H - - O - - H, oxygen has partial negative, hydrogen has partial positive)
|
|
Noble gases have no:
|
Electronegativity
|
|
If there is no difference in electronegativity, there will be no:
|
polarity
|
|
A bond in which one pair of electrons is shared between two bonded atoms:
|
A single bond
|
|
A bond in which two pairs of electrons are shared between the two bonded atoms:
|
A double bond
|

A bond in which three pairs of electrons are shared between the two bonded atoms:
|
A triple bond
|
|
Identifying an ion is when there is a difference between:
