Bonding Flashcards
How is a compound formed
When different elements chemically react and form bonds with each other
How is a molecule formed
Elements are made up of just one type of atom sometimes joined to other atoms of the same element by chemical bonds
When does ionic bonding occur
Between a metal and a non metal
When does covalent bonding occur
Between non metals only
When does metallic bonding occur
With pure metals only
What is a chemical bond
An attraction between two or more atoms
What is an ion
An atom or group of atoms that have an electrical charge either posotive or negative
What is a noble gas
An atom with a full outer shell
How does an atom become an ion
By either gaining or loosing electrons to get an overall charge
What is the definition of ionic bondin
An electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions
Where are alkali metals found on periodic table
Group1
Where are halogens found in the periodic table
Group7
How are ionic bonds formed
If you have sodium then it has 1e- in its outer shell by loosing this electron it is now posotive chlorine has seven E- in its outer shell and so gains the electron that sodium has lost making it negative this posotive and negative attracts

What is an ionic compund
A compound that contains ions
What is an iron lattice
Millions and millions of irons are packed together in a regular lattice arrangement joined by strong ionic bonds between oppositely charged ions
