Fix this later |
|
Chemically inert elements have a full valence shell of |
Electrons |
|
Helium has a |
Full valence shell of electrons |
|
Helium and neon fulfill octet rule because they each have a |
full valence shells |
|
Chemically reactive elements are trying to reach the octet rule but they need help from other |
elements |
|
Carbon is going to be used to creat a lot of molecules because it has four electrons in its |
valence shell |
|
A radioactive ion that has an unpaired electrons in its valence shell is a |
Free radical |
|
Exposure to sunlight can lead to the formation of |
Free radicals |
|
Antioxidants will neutralize |
Free radicals |
|
To much antioxidants will remove free radicals and suppress your |
immune system |
|
A chemical bond is a force that |
Pulls two atoms together |
|
A chemical bond is two atoms that are chemically |
Pulled together |
|
Atoms will share give away or steal an electron to |
Reach the octet rule |
|
Intramolecular bonds exist inside the |
molecule |
|
When an atom gives away an electron from its valence shell, it creates an
|
Ionic bond
|
|
An ion is an atom with a different number of |
electrons |
|
What kind of electrical charge does an atom have if it gives away an electron |
