Chapter 8 & 9 Flashcards
Electrons are transferred; electronegativity differences are generally greater than 1.7; formation is always exothermic
ionic bonding
Electronegativity difference is not the final determination of __ __; compounds are ionic if they conduct electricity in their __ state
ionic charactermolten
__ are larger than __ because of higher effective nuclear charge
anions, cations
Ionic compounds form solid crystals at __ temperatures; ionic compounds organize in a characteristic __ __ of alternating positive and negative ions; all __ are ionic compounds and form crystals

Structure: crystalline solidsMelting point: generally highBoiling point: generally highElectrical conductivity: excellent conductors in molten and aqueous statesSolubility in H2O: generally soluble
Ionic size from largest to smallest with charges:3+, 2+, +, -, 2-
2- > - > + > 2+ > 3+
Greater the effective nuclear charge, __ the ionic size
smaller
nonmetal atoms come together to form bonds to become more stable by sharing electrons to achieve a noble gas electron configuration; type of bond that holds atoms together in a molecule
covalent bonding
atoms form covalent bonds in such a way that all atoms get 8 electrons in its highest occupied energy level, except hydrogen which only needs 2 electrons
octet rule
ability of an atom in a bond to attract shared electrons to itself; __ across a period and up a group
electronegativityincreases
electrons are equally shared; electronegativity difference of 0 - .4
Non polar-covalent bonds
electrons are unequally shared; electronegativity difference of .5 - 1.7; has two poles- a positive and negative end
polar covalent bond
Polar bonds:electrons concentrate around the more __ atom in a molecule; atom gains a partial __ charge; since electrons spend __ time around the other atom, other atom gains a partial __ charge
electronegativenegativelesspositive
Covalent bonding forces:Electron - electron __ forcesProton - proton __ forcesElectron - proton __ forces
repulsiverepulsiveattractive
1) Longest and weakest bonds2) shortest and stronger than single bonds3) shortest and strongest type of covalent bond
1) single bonds2) double bonds3) triple bonds
distance between the nuclei of two covalently bonded atoms; optimum distance __ attraction, __ repulsions
bond lengthmaximizingminimizing
Shorter bond length = __ bond energy = __ bondBonds b/w elements become __ and __ as multiplicity increases
higherstrongershorterstronger
polarity depends on __ __ and __ around central atom
individual bondsgeometry
representative elements generally form __ to achieve a noble gas configuration
ions
ions from representative metals are usually __ with one of the noble gases (have the same electron configuration)
isoelectronic
Transition metals lose __ electrons before the __ electrons when forming cations
sd
distance from the nucleus to the outermost electrons in an ion
ionic radii
An atom loses electrons to form a __; it has a __ radius than its corresponding atom
cationsmaller
An atom gains electrons to form an __; it has a __ radius than its corresponding atom
anionlarger
innermost electrons belonging to filled electron shells
core electrons
electrons in the outermost shell; they combine with other atoms with unfilled shells to become stable; lead to chemical bonds and reactions b/w atoms
valence electrons
Many bonds forming, a lot of __ is released; __ released more than makes up for the __ __ required
energyenergyionization energy
energy required to convert and ionic compound into gaseous ions; quantitative measure of the strength of the ionic bonds in the compound
lattice energy
Relative strength of an ionic bonds is determined by the following:1) Charges of ions: __ the charge, the stronger the bond2) Distance b/w two ions: __ distance, stronger the bond
highershorter
The strength of the ionic bond is generally determined foremost by the __, and only if the __ are similar does one compare the distance b/w nuclei to determine the strength of the bond and the resulting lattice energy
