ionic, covalent, metallic bonding 1FGH Flashcards
(91 cards)
when do simple ions form?
when atoms lose or gain electrons
what are ions?
An ion is an electrically charged atom or group of atoms formed by the loss or gain of electrons.
when is an atom positively or negatively charged? what is another name for these
positive-loss of electrons
negative-gain electrons
cations, anions
what is the number of electrons lost or gained the same as?
the charge on the ion e.g., 2 electrons lost then the charge is 2+
what do metals form?
groups 1,2,3 are metals and they lose electrons to form positive ions
what do non metals form?
groups 5,6,7 are non metals and they gain electrons to form anions
what is the charge of Ag?
Ag+
what is the charge of Fe?
Fe2+ or Fe 3+
what is the charge of Cu?
Cu2+
what is the charge of Pb?
Pb2+
what is the charge of Zn?
Zn2+
what is the charge of H2?
H+
what is the charge of hydroxide?
OH-
what is the charge of Ammonium?
NH4. + (4 is subscribt)
what is the charge of carbonate?
CO3. 2-
what is the charge of nitrate?
NO3 -
what is the charge of sulphate?
SO4. 2-
what does a transfer of electrons produce?
a transfer of electrons produces an ionic compound. This is because when a nonmetal and a metal react together, and their opposite charges (as they are charged ions) strongly attract to one another by electrostatic attraction. they form an ionic bond
what is the force between two charged ions
electrostatic attraction
how is ionic bonding often depicted?
using dot and cross diagrams
(the ones with the diagram showing where the electron goes and then brackets around each ion)
what are compounds always?
electrically neutral
what is the difference between the ending ‘ide’ and ‘ate’
ide just means that it is what is described. e.g., copper sulfide it just copper and sulfate
however ate means that oxygen is present
what od all ionic compounds form?
crystals
what do ionic crystals consist of?
a lattice of positive and negative ions packed together in a regular way.
