Q

What are ions?

A
  • Charged particles- can be single atoms or groups
  • Positive ions formed from a loss of electrons
  • Negative ions formed from a gain of electrons

Q

Explain ionic bonding

A
  • When metal and non metal react together
  • Metal atom loses electrons to form a positive ion
  • Non metal gains these electrons to form a negatively charged ion

Q

What are the properties of simple molecular structures?

A
  • Intramolecular forces (between ions = covalent bonds) are strong
  • Intermolecular forces (between molecules) are weak
  • Weak intermolecular forces leads to low melting and boiling points
  • No free electrons- don’t conduct electricity

Q

What are the properties of ionic compounds?

A
  • High melting and boiling point
  • Due to many strong bonds that have to be broken
  • Can’t conduct electricity when solid
  • Conduct electricity when liquid

A
  • Long chains of repeating units
    -lots of small units are linked to form long molecule
  • Draw repeated section
  • Joined by covalent

Q

What is diamond

A
  • Allotrope of carbon
  • Very hard
  • Giant covalent
  • Four bonds
  • High melting point
  • doesn’t conduct
17
Q

What is graphite

A
  • Three bonds
  • Sheets in Hexagons
  • no bond between layers- move easily
  • High melting point
  • conducts as has one free
18
Q
  • What is graphene
A
  • One layer of graphite
  • One atom thick
  • Very strong
  • Can conduct
19
Q

What are fullerenes

A
  • Molecules of carbon atoms with hollow shapes
  • Hexagonal rings, however may also be five or seven
  • First was Buckminsterfullerene c60 which has a physical shape
  • cage other molecules
20
Q

What are carbon carbon nanotubes

A
  • Fullerene
  • Cylindrical very high length to diameter
  • Useful for nanotechnology, electronics and materials- strengthen without weight
21
Q

What are the three states of matter and what processes take place at each temperature

A
  • Solid, liquid gas
  • Melting and freezing- melting
  • Boiling and condensing take place at boiling
22
Q

What does the state at a certain temperature depend on

A
  • Depends on type of bonding and structure

- Stronger bonds require higher melting and boiling points

23
Q

What are the limitations of state diagrams

A
  • No forces
  • All particles are spheres
  • All particles are solid
24
Q

What are there state symbols

A
  • S- solid
  • l- Liquid
  • g- gas
  • aq- aqueous
25
Q

What structure do metals have

A
  • Giant structures in regular patterns

- - - Strong electrostatic forces- sharing of delocalised electrons

26
Q

What electron structure can be seen in metals

A
  • Electrons in outer shell are delocalised and so are free to move through whole structure
    • Strong electrostatic forces between positive and negative
  • Can conduct
