(43 cards)
Ionic bonds happen between a ___ and a ____
Metal; nonmetal
Covalent bonds happen between a. _____ and a _____
Nonmetal; metalloid
Metallic bonds happen between ____.
Metals
Oppositely charged particles are
held together by _____ _____ between the
particles
Electrostatic attractions
When negatively charged atom is attracted to positively charged atom OR a positively charged atom is attracted to a negatively charged atom:
Electrostatic attraction
A bond that results from the electrostatic attraction of a cation to an anion
Ionic bond
When does an ionic bond form?
When ions have reached maximum stability.
Ionic solids consist of 3D array of solids called
crystal lattice
A bond that is formed when two atoms share one or more pairs of electrons equally
Covalent bond
Energy required to break a bond and form two fragments, each w/ one electron of the original shared pair:
Bond dissociation
Average of all bond-dissociation energies of a single type of bond in a given molecule
Bond energy
Unequal sharing causes _____ covalent, and equal sharing causes _______ covalent
Polar; nonpolar
A measure of an atom’s ability to attract shared electrons to itself
Electronegativity
Nonpolar covalent values:
Polar covalent values:
Ionic values:
Nonpolar: X < 0.4
Polar: 0.4 < X < 2.0
Ionic: X > 2.0
3 steps to naming binary moelcular compounds of MAIN GROUP ELEMENTS:
1) 1st word = 1st name in formula
2) 2nd name element ending to -ide
3) Prefix to indicate no. of atom
2 steps to naming binary ionic compounds of main group elements
1) 1st word = cation
2) 2nd word = anion, ends w/ -ide
Why is naming binary ionic compounds different from main group elements to transition metals?
We need to distinguish between the cations with different charges using roman numerals.
For binary ionic compounds of transition metals, the roman numeral indicates:
The charge of the cation (1st word)
Binary Ionic Compounds of Transition Metals Endings:
- Ous for ____ charge
- Ic for _____ charge
Ous for lower charge
Ic for higher charge
An ion that consists of two or
more atoms joined together by
covalent bonds is called a
polyatomic ion
A polyatomic ion containing at
least one nonoxygen central
atom bonded to one or more
oxygen atoms is called an
Oxoanion
A compound that releases hydrogen ions (H+) when
dissolved in water
Binary acid
2 steps to naming binary acids
1) Add prefix -hydro to 2nd element
2) Last syllable change to -ic, then acid
Oxoanions bonded to at least one hydrogen ion (H+)
Oxoacids
