Chapter 7 Flashcards
(73 cards)
Solids have a definite
Shape & Volume
Liquids have a definite
Volume, but NO Shape
Where are forces the weakest?
In between particles & therefore, are allowed to pass each other
Why are liquids & solids not easily compressible?
Because the particles are touching each other
Gases have no
Shape nor Volume
Are there intermolecular forces between gas particles?
No
What are the conversions between solids & a liquid?
Melting & Freezing
What is it called when a liquid vaporizes into a gas?
Vaporization
What is Sublimation?
The conversion of solid directly to a gas
What is it called when a gas converts to a solid?
Deposition
What are INTRAmolecular forces?
A chemical bond within the molecule
MUCH STRONGER
What are INTERmolecular forces?
Attractions between different molecules
Changes make a STATE change
What is the driving force in the formation of chemical bonds?
Octet rule, where atoms tend to add, remove, or share electrons to wind up with 8 valence electrons
Which elements have valence shells that contain 8 electrons?
Noble gases
Every atom will strive to be
Isoelectric to the nearest Nobel gas. which is achieved through ionic & covalent bonding
Elements that are only 1 or 2 atomic numbers away from a noble gas will form
An Ion
Which element will give up an electron to form a cation?
Metals
Which element acquires an electron or 2 to form an anion?
Non-metals
Ionic bonds are formed between
Metals & non-metals
Electrons in filled shells are
Inert because they represent complete collections of electrons
What is used in the formation of chemical bonds
Valence electrons
Ionic bonds results from a
Columbic attraction which is the attraction between positive & negative charges
Ionic bonds ae stronger than
Covalent bonds
Every ionic compound is a
Solid at room temperature & pressure
