Question 1

Bond with the highest EN difference

Answer 1

Ionic

Question 2

EN and Ionic bonds

Answer 2

EN difference is do big that instead of sharing electrons an atom(non metal) will rip an electron from a metal

Question 3

metals tend to

Answer 3

lose electrons

Question 4

non metals tend to

Answer 4

gain electrons

Question 5

Why do atoms bond

Answer 5

in an attempt to become more stable

Question 6

What makes atoms the most stable?

Answer 6

A full valence shell

Question 7

What does a full valence shell have to do with the stability of an atom?

Answer 7

It makes it more stable.

Question 7

What is the octet rule?

Answer 7

The outer shell of an atom is full
(8 valence e-)

Question 8

What are the exceptions to the octet rule?

Answer 8

Hydrogen and Helium

Question 9

When are Hydrogen and Helium stable?

Answer 9

When they have both of their valence electrons
(2 valence e-)

Question 10

When going left to right on the periodic table the number of valence e- __

Answer 10

Increases by one.

Question 11

The number of valence e- increases by one when you move __ to __ on the periodic table

Answer 11

left to right

Question 12

From top to bottom on the periodic table the valence shell moves __ from the nucleus

Answer 12

further away

Question 13

The valence shell moves further away from the nucleus when you move __ to __ on the periodic table

Answer 13

top to bottom

Question 14

From bottom to top on the periodic table the valence shell moves __ the nucleus

Answer 14

closer to

Question 15

The valence shell moves closer to the nucleus when you move __ to __ on the periodic table

Answer 15

bottom to top

Question 16

Why don’t noble gases bond with other things?

Answer 16

because they already have full octets

Question 17

Full octets=

Answer 17

stability

Question 18

What is electronegativity?

Answer 18

The measure of how strongly atoms attract new bonding electrons to themselves

Question 19

What is the measure of how strongly atoms attract new bonding electrons to themselves?

Answer 19

Electronegativity

Question 20

What element has the highest EN?

Answer 20

Fluorine

Question 21

Fluorine has the __ EN

Answer 21

highest

Question 22

What element has the lowest EN?

Answer 22

Francium

Question 23

Francium has the __ EN

Answer 23

Lowest

Question 24

Bonding electrons are shared unequally in what type of covalent bond?

Answer 24

Polar

Question 25

Characteristics of a polar bond:

Answer 25

low EN/weak pull or high EN/strong pull think: if something is polar it has north and south POLES

Question 26

Characteristics of a nonpolar bond

Answer 26

equal EN/ equal pull

Question 27

Put polar, non, and ionic in order of most to least electron negative:

Answer 27

(most)Ionic, polar, non polar(least)

Question 28

What happens to bonding electrons in an ionic bond

Answer 28

They get ripped away from one atom(metal) and added to another(non metal)

Question 29

Why do electrons get ripped away instead of sharing in ionic bonds?

Answer 29

because the electron negativity difference is so big
