Bonding and nanoparticles and states of matter Flashcards
What are the three types of bonding?
Ionic bonding
Covalent bonding
Metallic bonding
Covalent bonding between…
Two non-metals
Ionic bonding between…
A metal and non-metal
Metallic bonding…
Electrostatic force of attraction within a metal
Ions
When an element loses or gains an electron
An ionic compound is a…
giant structure
Ionic bonding: High or low melting and boiling point? Why?
High because the giant structure
really strong bonds
need a lot of energy to break
Ions are very…
closely packed together
Do ions conduct electricity?
Yes, when they are in the water or are molten
Why ions conduct electricity when in water or molten
Then they can carry a charge because they are free to move
Metals always… an electron and a non-metal
always… an electron
lose
gains
… … between ions
Strong electrostatic forces
What should we consider before writing a ratio of an ionic bond?
The metal goes first
It is supposed to be in its simplest form
What are the limitations in showing ions in 3D?
Each of the ions are represented as spheres
Does not show the charges
How the ions were formed
What are the limitations in showing ions in 2D?
The diagram is not three dimensional
Does not show the structural arrangement of ions
What are the limitations in showing ions in ball and stick
No sticks/gap between the bonds
Does not show charges
Difference between an ion and an atom?
Atom when neutral
Ion when there is a charge
After the covalent bond has been formed all elements must have…
a full outer shell
Covalent bonding can also be in an element
Because gases are diatomic molecules except for the noble gases
How many pairs can you have in a covalent bond
Up to 3
In a covalent bond can there be one electron more contributed than the other elemen?
No, it should be in pairs
Limitations of covalent bonding in Dot and cross diagrams?
Size of the atom
Intermolecular forces
Limitations of covalent bonding in a structure
How covalent bonds are formed
Size of the atom
