Chapter7:ionic compounds Flashcards
Chemical Bond
The force that holds atoms together
Ionic Compound
Formed by metal and nonmetal
Forms a formula unit(formula unit is a ratio)
Form a crystal lattice
The negative are surrounded at all times by a positive and vise verce.
The strength of the bond is related to: latice energy. magnitude of charge, and size
latice Energy
energy needed to break up 1 mole
Cations and their charges
Group 1- 1+
Group 2- 2+
Most 2 block metals can form several cations
vanadium= 2+ 3+ 4+
Silver is always 1+
Cadmium is always 2+

Inorganic Nomenclature
Name of cation
write anion
if cation can have multiple charges add roman numeral
Patterns in Oxyanion Nomenclature
- when there are two oxyanions involving the same element the one with fewer oxygens ends in ‘ite’ and the one with more ends in ‘ate’
- the one with the fewest ends in ‘hypo’ and ends in ‘ite’
- the one with the most starts with ‘per’ and ends in ‘ate’
