Q

two properties of simple ionic bonds

A
  1. high melting and boiling points because their strong electrostatic forces of attraction between oppositely charged ions/ ionic bonds which require a lot of heat to break
  2. can conduct electricity when molten because there are some free electrons/ions which can carry charge
  3. brittle

Q

two properties of simple covalent bonds

A
  1. low melting and boiling points because they have weak intermolecular forces which require little heat to break.
  2. can not conduct electricity because there are no free electrons to carry charge
  3. gases and volatile liquids at room temperature

Q

two properties of metals

A
  1. high melting and boiling points because of their strong metallic bonds which require a lot of heat to break
  2. can conduct electricity and heat because of the sea of delocalized electrons around metal ions which can carry charge
  3. malleable (easy to shape) and ductile (easy to carry charge) because of their lattice structure (in layers)
  4. shiny

Q

chemical properties of alkali metals

A
  1. alkali metals react with oxygen to form an alkali metal oxide

alkali metal + oxygen -> alkali metal oxide

Q

chemical properties of alkali metals

A
  1. alkali metals react with oxygen to form an alkali metal oxide
    alkali metal + oxygen -> alkali metal oxide
  2. the rate at which the alkali metal reacts with oxygen increases down the group
  3. reaction between an alkali metal and oxygen is known as an oxidation reaction. this happens when the delocalized electron is lost and forms an ionic bond with oxygen.

Q

reaction with water

A

all alkali metals react vigorously with water and the reaction becomes more vigorous as you tren down the group.

alkali metal + water hydroxide -> alkali metal + hyprogen
2M(s) + 2H20(l) -> 2MOH (aq) + H2(g)

17
Q

features of alkali metals

A
  1. density increases as you go down the group
  2. reactivity increases as you go down the group
  3. melting and boiling point decrease as you go down the group
  4. rarely found as pure elements
18
Q

two differences between diamond and graphite

A
  1. graphite is soft and slippery while diamond is hard

2. graphite can conduct electricity while diamond can not

19
Q

metallic bonding

A

strong electrostatic attraction between delocalized electrons and metal ions

20
Q

alloys

A

when an element is added to a metal to strengthen it. when this happens, it reduces its malleability and ductility.

21
Q

allotropes

A

different forms of the same element

22
Q

what type of rings does graphite form?

A

hexagonal rings in layers
