charge and bonding Flashcards
What are the charge of ions for groups 1,2,13,14?
Alternately: how many electrons do they gain or lose?
+ 1, 2, 3, 4 charge
or lose 1,2,3,4 electrons
What are the charge of ions for groups 15, 16, 17?
- 1, 2, 3 charge
Gain 1, 2, 3 charge
are group 18 ions common?
no
What is an ionic bond?
An ionic bond is a bond which involves a transfer of electrons so that both atoms have full valence electron shells
How are ionic compounds named?
for example, an ionic bond between lithium (+1 anion) and fluorine (-1 cation)
Anion goes first, followed by the cation with the suffix, “ide”
eg. lithium fluoride
what bond will form between a metal and a non metal?
ionic
What is a covalent bond?
A covalent bodn is when two atoms share an electron in order to fill both shells
A covalent bond will form between two ______ elements?
(element type)
non metals
What are metallic bonds?
Metallic bonds are bonds that form between metal atoms, where electrons are in a pool between the metal atoms
how many electrons does an electron in covalent bond count for?
