Chapter 5 Test Flashcards
Positive ion
cation
Negative ion
anion
A compound formed by forces between positively and negatively charged particles is known as a…?
ionic compound
The force that holds two atoms together; may form by the attraction of a positive ion for a negative ion or by sharing electrons
Chemical bond
The electrostatic force that holds oppositely charged particles together in an ionic compound
ionic bond
The attraction of a metallic cation for delocalized electrons
metallic bond
A three-dimensional geometric arrangement of particles in which each positive ion is surrounded by negative ions and each negative ion is surrounded by positive ions
crystal lattice
The simplest ratio of ions represented in an ionic compound
formula unit
What type of ion
is made up of a single atom with a positive or negative charge?
monatomic ion
What type of ion is a group of atoms bonded together that acts as a single unit with a net charge?
polyatomic ion
What is an alloy?
A homogenous mixture of 2 or more metals
Chemical reactivity depends on…
valence electron configuration
Why are noble gases stable?
They have 8 valence electrons and a full outer ring
In terms of electron configuration, a neutral chlorine atom differs from the noble gas argon by valence electron(s).
one
Chemical bonds form by the attraction between ______.
positive and negative ions
Transition metal ions may lose their two valence electrons, forming ions with charges of 2+. But they may also lose electrons from an inner ______ sublevel, forming ions of 3+ or greater.
d
Elements in groups 11 through 14 lose electrons to form an outer energy level containing full s, p, and d sublevels. What are these relatively stable electron arrangements called?
isoelectronic
To designate an anion formed when an atom gains one or more electrons, the ending ___ is added to the root name of the element.
-ide
Groups 1-13 do what with electrons?
lose electrons
Group 14 does what with electrons?
lose or gain
Groups 15-18 do what with electrons?
gain electrons
Octet Rule
atoms tend to lose or gain electrons to reach 8 electrons in their outer valence shell
Isoelectronic Elements
When elements lose or gain electrons, they become isoelectronic with a noble gas elements; isoelectronic elements have the same electron arrangement but have different nuclei
Transition metals form and lose what?
may form different cations and lose 1-4 electrons
Positive ions are names as what?
positive ions are named as the metal + “ion”
Ions with variable changes (transition elements and all basic metals other than aluminum) are named using what to indicate the charge on the ion?
roman numerals
Ionic compounds form when…
ions of opposite charges attract each other
Three types of bonds
Ionic, metallic, and covalent
