bonding, structure & properties of matter Flashcards
solid
- regular arrangement
- very close together
- vibrate around fixed positions
liquid
- random arrangement
- close together
- flow around eachother
gases
- random arrangement
- further apart
- quick in all directions
changing states:
- particles stay the same
- way the particles arranged changes
- way particle move changes
melting boint:
melt & freeze at specific temperature
boiling point:
boil & condense at specific temperature
chemical bonds:
- ionic bonds
- convalent bonds
- metallic bonds
ionic bonding
transfer of electrons from
metal atoms —> non-metal atoms
ionic compounds are
giant structures of ions
ionic compounds held together…
by strong forces of attractions
ionic compounds:
-have high melting + boiling point
-do not conduct electricity when:
solid (ions can’t move)
molten
in solution
convalent bond
shared pair of electrons between atoms
convalent bond occurs in:
- non metallic elements (O2)
- compounds of non-metals (SO2)
in order for a covalent bond to bond:
- an electron from each atom is shared
- each atom has a complete outer shell
small molecules
contain a relatively small n of non-metal atoms joined together by convalent bonds
molecules=
- no overall electrical charge (can’t conduct electricity)
- usually have low melting & boiling points (weak intermolecular force)
