Q

What is Ionic Bonding

A

Element involved - Metal and Non-Metal
Particles involved - Ions (charged particles e.g. positive/negative)
Description - Electrostatic force of attraction between oppositely charged ions (They form ions to get full outer shells)
Example - Sodium Chloride (NaCl) or Iron Sulphide (FeS)

Q

What is Covalent Bonding

A

Element involved - Non-Metal and Non-Metal (could also be bonded with same element like O₂)
Particles involved - Molecules (Simple-small and Giant-big)
Description - Atoms share electrons to achieve full outer shells
Example - Water (H₂O) or Glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆)

Q

How do you work out the formulae of Ionic Compounds

A

Make sure the positive and negative charges are the same.
OR…
Use Criss-Cross Method
Take charge of the 2 elements and swap the numbers (e.g. Al ³+ and O ²+ becomes Al₂O₃)

Q

How to balance a Chemical Equation

A

Calculate how many atoms of each element are on each side of the equation (left side - reactants; right side - products)
If numbers are the same then the equation is balanced
If not then add a co-efficient in front of the formulas (this adds more substance not changing the formula otherwise that would make a different substance)
Start with Unbalanced Elements that only appear in one substance on each side of the equation.
Repeat until equation is balanced.

47
Q

A 
All metals (e.g. Mg, Ca, Zn, Ni, Li etc...)

49
Q

A 
Steam - H₂O
H₂
O₂
Cl₂
N₂

50
Q

What substances do you write an Aqueous state symbol underneath (write (aq) as a subscript on the right of the element/compound)
Aqueous means dissolved in water, ions are free to move

A
