What is Nicotine
C10H14N2 is a naturally occurring alkaloid compound from the nightshade family of plants. Used as a stimulant and anxiolytic .
What is valency
Valency refers to the number of electrons an atom has to lose or gain to have a full outer shell ( combining power )
Where are electrons found
In shells orbiting teh nucleus of teh atom
What does the location of an element on the periodic table tell us ?
Groups numbers show valency and periods show number of shells
Electron configuration
Representation of arrangement of electrons among the orbital shells and sub shells
What are teh three types of bonds
- Covalent bonds
- Ionic bonds
- Metallic bonds
Ionic bonding ( 4 )
• occurs between metal and non-metal atoms.
• Electrons are transferred between atoms
• This produces ions (charged atoms)
Forms metal compounds
Properties of ionic compounds
- high melting and boiling points
- forms giant crystalline lattice structures
- Ionic compounds can conduct electricity if dissolved or molten
Covalent bonding ( 3 notes )
● Non - metal atoms like to covalently bond
● Sharingofelectronswithinachemicalbond
● Toobtainafulloutershellofelectrons
What happens in an ionic bond ( 2 )
In ionic bonds the metals lose electrons ( t become a positively charged cation ) and the non metals accepts these electrons to became a negatively charged anion.
What is an ionic bond
Electrostatic force of attraction between a positive metal and a negative non metal ( between oppositely charged ions )
Lattice energy
Energy required to convert one mole of an ionic solid into its gaseous ionic constituents
What is lattice enthalpy and what does it depend on
- Lattice enthalpy is teh measure of strength of forges between teh ions in an ionic compound.
- depends on ionic radius and charges of ions
What is electricity
Flow of electrons ( slat does not conduct electricity in its solid state )
Why do ionic compounds have high melting and boiling points (3)
This so because ionic compounds are held together by strong electrostatic forces between oppositely charged ions. These forces are known as ionic bonds. Because the ionic bond ( lattice ) contains so many ions a large amount of energy is needed to overcome these bonds,
Electrical condictivulty property of ionic compounds explanation
When molten or aquas teh ions are free to move around, mobile charged particles are needed to conduct electricity. The solid lattice does not allow ions to move from tehir fixed positions. In liquids this sold lattice is broken and ions can move free,y and therefore conduct electricity.
