Q

Atomic radius

A

a length equal to half the distance between the nuclei of two covalently bonded atoms

21
Q

Ionic radius

A

the distance from the nucleus to the outermost e- of an ion

22
Q

Cation

*Size?

A

a positively charged ion of a metal

*Cations are much smaller

23
Q

Anion

*Size?

A

a negatively charged ion

*Anions are somewhat larger

24
Q

Ionic bonding

A

the attraction between positive and negative ions in an ionic compound

25
Covalent bonding
holds the shared atoms together and forms a molecule
26
Ionic Formulas
Ionic compounds are composed of ions. If you know the ions that make up the compound, you can write the formula (formula unit). DROP, SWAP, REDUCE
27
Molecular Formulas
Covalent molecules are composed of neutral atoms, not ions. To write the molecular formula you need to know the name of the molecule
28
``` Oxidizing agent (oxidant) *The species that’s being oxidized/reduced ```
The species in a reaction that causes another one to be oxidized *The species that’s being reduced
29
``` Reducing agent (reductant) *The species that’s being oxidized/reduced ```
The species in a reaction that causes another one to be reduced *The species that’s being oxidized
30
Typically an individual element is __ An individual species (reactant) is the __
Typically an individual element is oxidized/reduced An individual species (reactant) is the oxidant/reductant
31
Intramolecular interactions
inside molecules
32
Intermolecular interactions
between molecules
33
Electronegativity
the ability of an atom to attract electrons to itself
34
Transfer of electrons: __ interaction
ionic interaction
35
Unequal-sharing of electrons: __ bond
polar covalent bond
36
Equal-sharing of electrons: __
nonpolar covalent bond
37
Nonpolar Molecules have a __ shape with __ exterior atoms
Symmetrical shape (generally no lone pairs on central atom) with exterior atoms all the same
38
Polar Molecules have a __ shape with __ exterior atoms | *It can be __ combination of atoms with a ___ geometry
``` Symmetrical geometry (no lone pairs) with different exterior atoms *ANY combination of atoms with a nonsymmetrical geometry (lone pairs) ```
39
Dipole-dipole Forces are present in __ molecules * The larger the difference in electronegativity within a molecule, the greater/smaller the dipole-dipole interaction. * X and Y =
Present in polar molecules * The larger the difference in electronegativity within a molecule, the greater the dipole-dipole interaction * X and Y = nonmetals
40
Hydrogen Bonding - Strength - Special type of __ bonding - Strength is limited by: - Present ONLY between molecules with:
- VERY STRONG - Special type of dipole-dipole bonding - Limited by the number of lone pairs on the central atom - Present ONLY between molecules with: N-H, O-H, and H-F bonds
41
London Forces A.k.a. -The __ the mass of the molecules, the __ the London forces -The __ the surface-to-surface contact between molecules, the __ the London forces -Due to __ electron movement (Swishing)
A.k.a. van der Waals force and dispersion force - The larger the mass of the molecules, the stronger the London forces - The larger the surface-to-surface contact between molecules, the stronger the London forces - Due to transient electron movement (Swishing)
42
Strength of bonds and attractive forces: - Ionic bond - Covalent bond - Hydrogen bond - Dipole-dipole attractions - Dispersion forces
Strong: - Ionic bond - Covalent bond Somewhat strong: - Hydrogen bond - Dipole-dipole attractions Weak: -Dispersion forces
