17
Q

Octet rule

A

an atom is most stable when there are eight electrons in its valence shell

18
Q

Ions are atoms that

A

contain an uneven number of protons and electrons which results in an overall positive or negative charge

19
Q

Cation are atoms that

A

contain positive charge. The positive charge is a result of the atom containing more protons than electrons

20
Q

Anions are atoms that

A

contain a negative charge. The negative charge is a result of the atom containing more electrons than protons

21
Q

An anion that has accepted two electrons has

A

a net charge of -2

22
Q

The opposite changes of cations and anions exert

A

a moderately strong mutual attraction that keeps the atoms in close proximity forming an ionic bond

23
Q

The ionic bond is an ongoing,

A

close association between ions of opposite charge

24
Q

To determine the chemical formulas of ionic compounds, the following two conditions must be satisfied

A
  • each ion must obey the octet rule for maximum stability
  • ions will combine in a way that the overall ionic compound will be neutral in other words the charges of the ions must balance out
25
Q

Covalent bonds involve

A

2 atoms, typically nonmetals, that share electron density to form strong bonding interaction

26
Q

Covalent bonds include

A

single, double, triple bonds and are composed of sigma and pi bonding interactions where 2, 4, or 6 electrons are shared

27
Q

Electronegativity is the

A

tendency of an atom or molecule to attract electrons and this form bonds

28
Q

the strongest bonds in organisms are

A

covalent bonds that form a cells molecules

29
Q

a hydrogen bond forms when a hydrogen atom

A

covalently bonds to one electronegativity atom is also attracted to another electronegative atom

30
Q

in living cells, the electronegative partners are

A

usually oxygen or nitrogen atoms

31
Q

if electrons are evenly distributed then

A

they may accumulate by chance in one part of a molecule

32
Q

van der waals interactions are attractions between

A

molecules that are close together as a result of there charges

33
Q

A molecules shape determined by

A

the positions of its atoms orbitals

34
Q

in a covalent bond the s and p orbitals may

A

hybridize, creating specific molecular shapes

35
Q

molecular sharpe determines how

A

biological molecules recognize and respond to one another

36
Q

chemical reactions are

A

the making and breaking of chemical bonds

37
Q

reactants are

A

the starting molecules of a chemical reaction

38
Q

products are

A

the resulting molecules of a chemical reaction

39
Q

all chemical reactions are

A

reversible products of the forward reaction to become reactants for the reverse reaction

40
Q

chemical equilibrium is reached when

A

the forward and reverse reactions occur at the same time

41
Q

at the equilibirum the

A

relative concentrations of reactants and products do not change

42
Q

an elements properties depend

A

on the structure of its atoms
