(67 cards)
compounds are composed of atoms held together by _____ _____
chemical bonds
Chemical bonds result from the attractions between _____ _____ (the electrons and protons) that compose atoms
charged particles
Chemical bonds are classified into 3 types:
ionic, covalent, metallic
ionic bonds occur between:
electrons are ____ between atoms (_____-_____)
metal and nonmetal
transferred (cation (metal) -anion (nonmetal))
covalent bonds occur between:
electrons are ____ between atoms
nonmetal and nonmetal
shared
metallic bonds occur between:
electrons are _____ between atoms (communal sharing)
metal and metal
“pooled”
In a Lewis model: _____ _____ are represented as dots
valence electrons
Lewis electron-dot structures depict the ______ formula with its valence electrons
structural
Lewis structures focus on valence electrons because chemical bonding involves the transfer or sharing of ____ _____ between two or more atoms
valence electrons
When atoms bond, they tend to gain, lose, or share electrons to result in a ____ ___-___ ______
noble gas-like configuration
attractive interactions between cations and anions are called ____ ____
ionic bond
Predict charge on the anion or cation formed for the following atoms:
Li:
F:
Ca:
Li: +1, cation
F: -1, anion
Ca: +2, cation
Predict ionic compound formed between the following
Lithium and fluorine:
Calcium and chlorine:
Aluminum and oxygen:
LiF
CaCl2
Al2O3
When anions and cations form, they form a structure and release energy from that formation. This structure is called a _____ _____
crystal lattice
Ionic Compound Structures
The crystal lattice is held together by the electrostatic attraction of the ____ for all the surrounding ____
There is no ionic ______ - the chemical formula is an empirical formula, simply giving the ratio of ions based on ____ balance
The crystal lattice maximizes the _____ between cations and anions, leading to the most stable arrangement
cations, anions
molecule
charge
attraction
the energy released when one mole of an ionic compound forms from its free ions in the gas phase
lattice energy
lattice energy =
cation charge x anion charge / distance
a stronger lattice energy =
- greater charges
2. shorter distance
Which compound has the greatest lattice energy?
- CaF2 vs. CaO
- RbBr vs. CsBr
- CaO (greater charges)
2. RbBr (shorter distance)
Rules for naming ionic compounds
- the metal is named first and it keeps its elemental name
- if the metal can have more than one charge, report its charge as a Roman numeral
- the nonmetal is named second
- Add -ide to the root of the nonmetal
What is the chemical formula for aluminum sulfide?
Al₂S₃
Covalently bound atoms compose a _____. Hence, they are referred to as _____ _____
molecule
molecular compounds
Rules for naming molecular compounds
- use prefix for both elements present (mono is emitted for the first name)
- The first element keeps its elemental name
- Add -ide to the root of the second element
- Name the elements in the same order that they are written in the chemical formula
Name prefixes for 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
mono di tri tetra penta hexa hepta octa nona deca
