Answer 6

Alternating cations and anions held by strong electrostatic forces of attraction

Question 7

1.27
State 2 properties of ionic compounds

Answer 7

-↑ mp & bp
-Don’t conduct when solid

Question 8

What do you say instead of particles???

Answer 8

IONS or ATOMS

Question 9

1.28

Answer 9

-Low mp & bp
-Do NOT conduct electricity

Question 10

1.30
Explain why simple molecules such as water are poor conductors of electricity

Answer 10

No charged particles free to move & carry charge

Question 11

Do covalent bonds conduct electricity?

Answer 11

NO

Question 12

1.30
What is a polymer

Answer 12

Long chain of molecules made of many short chain molecules (monomers)

Question 13

1.30
Why does poly(ethene) have a higher melting point than ethene?

Answer 13

-Larger molecule
-Stronger intermolecular forces between molecules
-More energy needed to separate

Question 14

1.35
Define the term allotropes

Answer 14

Diff structural forms of particular element

Question 15

1.35
Does the structure and bonding of a particular element affect anything?

Answer 15

Properties and uses

Question 16

1.36
Compare the differences between diamond and graphite

Answer 16

Diamond
-4 covalent bonds
-Very hard
-Does not conduct electricity
-Cutting tools

Graphite
-3
-Very soft
-Each C atom has delocalised electron -> free to move and carry charge -> suitable for use in electrodes
-Lubricants, pencil lead
-Easily rubs away in layers bc weak intermolecular F between layers

Question 17

1.36
Compare the similarities between diamond and graphite

Answer 17

-High mp & bp
-Only C atoms
-Giant molecular substances

Answer 18

-Simple molecule
-C atoms
-3 covalent bonds

Question 19

1.38
State 2 properties of fullerenes. Give an example of one

Answer 19

-Weak IMF between molecules -> low mp (molecules themselves = very strong bc covalent bonding)
-Soft/Slippery
-Buckminster Fullerene

Question 20

1.38
Give 3 uses of fullerenes

Answer 20

-Cage molecules -> deliver drugs directly to cells in body
-Lubricants in machines -> stop moving parts grinding together
-Large SA -> Good industrial catalysts

Question 21

1.40
Define the term malleable

Answer 21

Can be bent into shape w/o shattering

Question 22

1.40

Define the term molecular formula

Answer 27

No. of atoms present in substance

Question 28

1.47
Describe what happens to the total mass in a non-enclosed system

Answer 28

Co₂ given off so mass decreases (Idk if Co₂ for all reactions but generally something given off so will decrease)

Question 29

1.49
State the original equation for concentration

Answer 29

c=m/v

c=g dm^3
m=g
v=dm^3
