C3-Structure And Bonding Flashcards
What is an ionic bond
Ionic bond is force that hold them together and ionic compound is everything.
What are ionic compounds held by
Ionic compounds are held by strong electrostatic forces of attraction by there oppositly charge ionic bonding.Between a metal and a non metal

States of matter
Solid,liquid,gas,aqueos
Ionic solids
Fixed in position in a giant lattice.Vibrate but no movement.Cannot conduct electricity
Molten ionic compounds
High temperatures provides enough energy to overcome the many strong attractive forces between ipns.Ions are free to move.
Conducts electricity
Ionic compound in solution
Water molecules seperate ions from the lattice.Ions are free to move around within the solution.
Conducts electricity
When do ionic compounds conduct electricity
When they are molten or dissolved in water.This is because their ions can then become mobile and can carry charge throughout the liquid
Lattice
The electrostatic forces of attraction between the oppositely charged ions in an ionic compound are veru strong. operating in all directions. The regular arrangement of ions in the giant lattice results in ionic compounds forming crystals.
The ball and stick model shows the 1: 1 ratio of Na and Cl ions in NaCl
What is a covalent bond
A bond between a non metal where they share electrons
What is an alloy
a mixture of two or more elements, at least one of which is a metal
What is a delocalised electrom
bonding electron that is no longer associated with any one particular atom
What is a dot and cross diagram
a drawing to show only the arrangement of outer shell electrons of the atoms or ions in a substance
What is fullerene
form of the element carbon that can exist as large cage-like structures, based on hexagonal rings of carbon atoms
What is a giant covalent structure
a huge 3D network of covalently bonded atoms
What is a giant lattice
a huge 3D network of atoms or ions
What is the intermolecular force
the attraction between the individual molecules in a covalently bonded substance
What is a liquid
substances that have a fixed volume, but they can flow and change their shape
What is an ionic bond
the electrostatic force of attraction between positively and negatively charged ions
What is particle theory
a theory that explains the properties of solids, liquids and gases based on the fact that all matter is made from tiny
particles. It describes the movement of particles and the distance between them
What is a polymer
a substance made from very large molecules made up of many repeating units
What is the state of matter
the forms in which matter can exist. A substance can be solid, liquid or gas
How are ionic compounds held together?
• They are held together in a giant lattice.
• It’s a regular structure that extends in all directions in a substance.
• Electrostatic attraction between positive and negative ions holds the structure together.
How are ionic compounds formed? Explain in terms of MgO case.
Reaction of a metal with a non-metal.
Electron transfer occurs - metal gives away its outer shell electrons to non-metal.
Mg is in Group Il, so has 2 available outer shell electrons.
O is in Group VI, so can accept 2 electrons to get a full outer shell configuration.
Mg becomes Mg?* and O becomes O2- (oxide).
How do intermolecular forces change as the mass/size of the molecule increases?
They increase. That causes melting/boiling points to increase as well (more energy needed to overcome these forces).
What are thermosoftening polymers
Thermosoftening polymers - special type of polymers; they melt/soften when heated. There are no bonds between polymer chains. Weak intermolecular forces ensure that the structure is solid at room temperature. These forces are overcome with heating - polymer melts.
What are giant covalent substances? Give examples
- Solids, atoms covalently bonded together in a giant lattice.
- High melting/boiling points - strong covalent bonds.
- Mostly don’t conduct electricity (no delocalised e )
- Diamond, graphite, silicon dioxide.
