what are the difference between ion and atoms?
ions have charges 3+, 2-, etc
atoms have no charge + or -
what are atoms?
the smallest particles, which characterize as chemical elements
what is dalton’s theory?
billiard ball model
- all matter is made up of atoms, that are solid and uniform spheres
- atoms can join together which other elements to make compounds
what is thompson’s theory?
raisin-bun model
- discovered every atom contains electrons
- are embedded in a cloud of positive charge
what is rutherford’s theory?
solar system model
- discovered all atoms have positive nucleus, contains protons
- electrons rotate around the nucleus
what is bohr’s theory?
energy level model
- electrons associate with specific energy levels
what are isotopes?
atoms of the same element that have the same protons but different neutrons
ex). Carbon-12 = mass 12 || protons 6
carbon-13 = mass 13 || protons 6
when are ions most stable?
are most stable when gaining or losing electrons from outer rings
cations
lost electrons to become positive
anions
gained electrons to be negative
molecular
non-metal + non-metal
- cannot be conducted by H20
ionic
metal + non-metal
- can be conducted by H20
naming non-metals
- use Latin prefixes
- use -ide at end
*metals do not use these
reactions
physical change = solid > liquid
chemical change = C + O = CO2
energy change = endothermic & exothermic
endothermic
absorb heat (cold)
exothermic
release heat (hot)
C(s) + O 2(g) → CO 2(g)
formation
AB → A + B
decomposition
Zn + 2HCl -> ZnCl2 + H2
single replacement
BaCl2 + K2CO3 → BaCO3 + 2KClA
double replacement
HNO 3(aq) + Ba(OH) 2(aq) → H 2O(ℓ) + Ba(NO 3) 2(aq)
neutralization (always have H2O or HOH)
CH4 (g) + 02 (g) → CO2 (g) + H2O (g)
hydrocarbon combustion
ionic naming
- cross and drop
- write charges of each element
- reduce to lowest terms
ex). Mg 2+ & Cl - → MgCl2
ionic compounds
1). crystal lattice: solid state
2). solid state does not conduct electricity
3). high melting point: needs lots of energy to break bonds
