when ions come tgt, they arrange themselves in a continuous 3d lattice of _____________cation and anions, which _____________ attractive forces between _____________ charged ions & ____________ repulsion between ____________ charged ions
alternating, maximises, oppositely, minimises, similarly
ionic bonds are generally ________ and a _______ amt of energy is needed to break such bonds
strong, large
the ____________ the charges of ion, the _____________ the ionic bonds
greater, stronger
the ___________ the ionic radius, the ___________ the ionic bonds
smaller, stronger
ionic radius for cations & anions ____________ across period (cus no. of protons increase –> __________ pull to nucleus) & ____________ down grp (no. of electron shells)
decreases, stronger, increases
IMPT: how to ans qns with reference to structure & bonding: which ionic compound have stronger ionic bonds
1. do they have giant ionic lattice?
2. compare cation & anion charges (__________ charge, _________ bonds)
3. compare ionic radii of cation & anion (___________ radii, ____________ bonds)
4. hence, ………. is stronger as _______ energy is needed to ______________ the __________ ionic bond
greater, stronger
smaller, stronger
more, overcome, stronger
more protons –> ___________ electrostatic forces of attraction –> shell shrinks –> _________ to nucleus –> radii ____________
greater, closer, smaller
with reference to structure & bonding, predict if …… has a higher/lower boiling point than …….
- compare both lattice structures (ionic/not)
2.compare charges (greater charges stronger bonds) - compare ionic radii (smaller radii, stronger bonds)
