Atoms Flashcards
Explain a useful appilcation of Carbon-14.
Used for radio carbonating in determining age of fossils
Why do atoms form chemical bonds?
They want to be stable with balance electrons for a full outer shell
How many electrons are on the first level?
2
How many electrons are on the second level?
8
How many electrons are on the third level?
18
What are the two types of covalent bonds?
Nonpolar and polar
What has to be present in order for a covalent bond to be considered polar?
A positive and negative charge
The intra in intramolecular means?
inside
The inter in intermolecular means?
between
Maximum amount of hydrogen bonds a water molecule can have?
4
Why would it be more appropriate to refer to hydrogen bonds as hydrogen “attractions”?
Dipoloe-Dipole attraction between electronegative atoms
Between what atoms can a hydrogen bond form?
Electronegative
Examples: N, F, O
Place the 3 bond types from STRONGEST to WEAKEST
Ionic - Polar - Nonpolar
Explain how electronegativity relate to ionic bonds.
negative and positive charges
Explain how electronegativity relate to polar bonds.
Particle positive and negative charges
