17
Q

What is the formula for an ion

A

The first element is positive the second is negative
Crisscross the numbers
Divide to get the lowest subscripts
Exp: Mg3 N2

18
Q

What are the elements in HOFBrINCl

A

Hydrogen, oxygen, flooring, bromine, iodine, nitrogen, chlorine

19
Q

What is a polyatomic ion

A

And I am made up of more than one eye on that acts as a single particle

20
Q

What is a diatomic molecule

A

From molecule that’s found in its natural form as two atoms (the HOFBrINCl )

21
Q

What is a covalent bond

A

Electrons are shared so that each element can have a full outer orbit

22
Q

What is the difference between ionic compounds and molecular compounds

A

Ionic compounds have an ionic bond, a nonmetal plus a metal, and they give or take electrons. Molecular compounds have covalent bonds, two nonmetals and electrons shared

23
Q

And molecular compounds you use the prefixes to name. What are they?

A
Mono 1
Di 2
Tri 3
Tetra 4
Penta 5
Hexa 6 
Hepta 7
Octa 8
Nona 9
Deca 10
24
Q

How to name ionic compounds

A
  1. Metal first nonmetal second

2. change metal and to ide

25
What is dissociation
The ion splits into its previous singular atoms
26
Do molecular compounds dissociate
Noperino
27
Do you want ionic compounds dissociate
yeperino
28
What is dissolving
Free to move around and can conduct more electricity
29
How do you name acids
The chemical formula starts with H, add the prefix "hydro" and add the suffix "ic" and add acid at the end. Example: hydrochloric acid
30
Do acids and bases dissolve in water to form ions
Yes
31
What do oxyacid acids contain
Polyatomic ion's and an oxygen atom
32
If a polyatomic ion ends in "ate" change it to
"ic" and add the word acid at the end.
33
If a polyatomic ion ends in "ite" you change it to
"ous" and add the word acid
34
Acids and bases react to make watching
Water and salt
35
What is an atom
Smallest unit of an element
