Bonding Flashcards
1
Q
Fluorine
A
High FIE/EN
Can only form F- ions –> any extra electrons would go into the next energy level with extra shielding
2
Q
Sodium
A
Low FIE/EN
Can only produce Na+ –> the next electrons would have to come out of an inner energy level
- these electrons are very strongly attracted to the nucleus and take more energy to remove
3
Q
Neon
A
High FIE –> a lot of energy to remove an electron from a neon atom
Low EN –> extra electrons would go into next energy level with extra shielding
4
Q
Transition Metal
A
- lose ‘s’ electrons first _-. apart from Copper and Cr
5
Q
Valency
A
- how the atoms of an element will combine with other atoms
- the number of hydrogen/chlorine atoms that the element can combine with
