Electron dot structure |
Shows the valence electrons surrounding the atomic symbol Electrons placed by themselves, then paired |
|
Ionic bond |
Bond between a metal and non metal (opposite charges) Net charge is 0, charges balance Atoms are stable |
|
Non bonding pairs |
Paired valence electrons are stable and rarely form chemical bonds with other atoms |
|
Ionic compound |
All chemical compounds containing ions Positive and negative charges balance Brittle like non metals |
|
Metallic bond |
Chemical bond where electrons are shared with all neighbors and hold positively charged metal ions together |
|
In a metallic bond, the more electrons that are shared |
The stronger the bond and the higher the melting point |
|
Alloy |
Any mixture of 2 or more metallic elements |
|
Ore |
Geological deposits containing high concentrations of metal containing compounds |
|
Covalent bond |
Atoms are held together by shared electrons between non metals |
|
Covalent compound |
A substance composed of atoms held together by covalent bonds |
|
Molecule |
Any group of atoms held together by covalent bonds |
|
Dipole |
When the charge in a covalent bond is separated |
|
The higher the electronegativity, the higher the |
Dipole |
|
Electronegativity |
Ability of an atom to pull shared electrons toward itself when bonding Higher electronegativity, it pulls more |
|
Identical atoms have identical |
Electronegativity |
|
Non polar bond |
When 2 atoms in a covalent bond have the same electronegativity |
|
Polar bond |
Covalent bond between 2 atoms with different electronegativities |
|
A dipole is formed when the electronegativity between 2 atoms is greater than |
.4 |
|
Nonpolar molecule |
When dipoles of = strength pull in opposite directions and cancel each other |
|
Attraction of molecules From strongest to weakest |
Ion-dipole Dipole-dipole Dipole- induced-dipole Induced-dipole - induced-dipole |
|
Induced dipole |
Temporary uneven distribution of electrons Caused when atoms or molecules get close enough to each other |
|
Electron configurations (finding how an element ionizes) |
Find how many valence electrons Fewer to add or subtract? # of added is x- # subtracted is x+ |
|
Rules of bonding covalent molecules |
Duet rule- hydrogen needs 2 electrons Octet rule- all other atoms need 8 electrons |
|
Determining ionic formulas |
Write down the atoms and how they normally ionize If they are not neutral, add more until charges balance Count # needed of each and write formula with suffix of # needed |
|
Elements in the same group on the periodic table have the same number of |
Valence electrons |
|
To become a negative ion, does an atom lose or gain electrons? |
Gain |
|
What kind of force holds 2 atoms together within an ionic bond? |
The electrical force of attraction between oppositely charged ions |
|
Elements on _____sides of the periodic table tend to form ionic bonds |
Opposite |
|
Do metals more readily gain or lose electrons? |
Lose |
|
Which elements form covalent bonds? |
Non metallic elements |
|
A dipole is an uneven distribution of ______ in a bond due to the difference in _______ between 2 atoms |
Electrons Electronegativity |
|
Which element has the greatest electronegativity? |
Flourine |
|
Which element has the least electronegativity? |
Francium |
|
A chemical bond is _____ than the attraction between molecules |
Bond |
|
Induced dipoles are |
Temporary |
|
When an atom loses an electron to another atom this is a |
Chemical change involving the formation of ions |
|
You would have a higher melting point if the charges of ions is |
Greater |
|
Atoms of metallic elements are not good at forming covalent bonds because of their tendency to |
Lose electrons |
|
The further apart on the periodic table, the more |
Ionic bonds become |
|
When Nitrogen and Flourine combine to form a molecule, the chemical formula is |
NF3 |
|
Molecules with less symmetry have higher |
Boiling points |
|
Ion-dipole attractions are stronger than dipole-dipole attractions because |
The magnitude of the electric charge associated with an ion is greater |
|
What is a hydrogen bond? |
An unusually strong dipole-dipole attraction |
