CHAPTER 2.2

Question 1

force of attraction that holds together ions with opposite charges

Answer 1

IONIC BOND

Question 2

An ionic compound that breaks apart into positive and negative ions in solution is called an

Answer 2

ELECTROLYTE

Question 3

two or more atoms share electrons rather than gaining or losing them

Answer 3

COVALENT BOND

Question 4

results when two atoms share one electron pair.

Answer 4

SINGLE COVALENT BOND

Question 5

two atoms share two pairs of electrons

Answer 5

DOUBLE COVALENT BOND

Question 6

two atoms share the electrons equally— one atom does not attract the shared electrons more strongly than the other atom.

Answer 6

NONPOLAR COVALENT BOND

Question 7

the sharing of electrons between two atoms is unequal

Answer 7

POLAR BOND

Question 8

the power to attract electrons to itself. At least one other atom in the molecule then will have a partial positive charge.

Answer 8

ELECTRONEGATIVITY

Question 9

forms when a hydrogen atom with a partial positive charge (δ+) attracts the partial negative charge (δ−) of neighboring electronegative atoms,

Answer 9

HYDROGEN BOND

Question 10

a measure of the difficulty of stretching or breaking the surface of a liquid

Answer 10

SURFACE TENSION
