bonding structure and properties of matter Flashcards
how are ions formed
when atoms gain or lose electrons
what are ionic bonds
they are opposite charges and are attracted to each other by electrostatic forces they form an ionic bond which is really strong
what states is ionic bonding between
metals and non metals
properties of ionic compounds
-high melting and boiling points
-can conduct electricity only when melted or dissolved in water
what is high mp and bp determined by
determined by the strength of the bonds holding that substance together so that means the ionic bonds are really strong since they have a high mp and bp
formula of hyrdroxide ion sulfate ion nitrate ion carbonate ion and ammonium ions
hydroxide ion-OH^-
sulfate ion-SO4^2-
nitrate ion-NO3^-
carbonate ion-CO3^2-
ammonium ion-NH4^+
what is a huge ionic structure called
called a lattice
what is the moles equation
moles=mass/Mr
how do covalent bonds get a full outer shell
they share electrons so they keep they electrons and gain one or more electrons
what are the types of substances covalent bonds can make
water
methane
chlorine
ammonia
covalent bonds form between ………… atoms
non metallic
properties of simple molecular substances
don’t conduct electricity because they have no free electrons
they are very strong
larger the molecule the stronger the intermolecular forces are
they boil/melt at low temperatures because of intermolecular forces
what are intermolecular forces
weak forces that exist between molecules
more a molecule has the stringer they are
what are giant covalent structures made out of
huge numbers of non metal atoms
properties of giant covalent structures
very strong high melting and boiling points because there in regular repeating lattices
generally don’t conduct electricity even when molten exception is graphite
