16
Q

Are atoms positive, neutral or negatively charged?

A

Atoms are neutral because the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons

17
Q

What happens if a catalyst is used in a reaction?

A

The rate of reaction increases

18
Q

What is an ion?

A

Ions are charged particles which are formed when a particle gains or loses an electron

If an atom loses an electron a positive ion will form
If an atom gains an electron a negative ion will form

19
Q

What is an isotope?

A

An atom with the same atomic number but different mass number

20
Q

What is relative atomic mass and where can you find it?

A

It is an average atomic mass calculated for an element

21
Q

How does a covalent bond form ?

A

A covalent bond forms when 2 positive nuclei are held together by their common attraction for a shared of electrons

22
Q

What is the formula used to calculate rate of reaction?

A 
Average reaction rate 
              =
Change in quantity 
——————————
Change in time
23
Q

What are the diatomic elements?

A

Hydrogen, nitrogen, fluorine, oxygen, iodine, chlorine and bromine

Have No Fear Of Ice Cold Beer

24
Q

When is a solution formed?

A

When a solute is dissolved in a solvent

Solute- eg coffee or salt
Solvent- eh water

25
Q

How do you calculate number of moles of a solute?

A

N= CxV

N= Number of moles (mol)
C= Concentration of solution (mol l^-1)
V= Volume of solution (litres, l)
26
Q

What is the pH scale?

A

The pH scale is an indication of hydrogen ion concentration and runs from below 0 to above 14

27
Q

What is an ionic bond ?

What is it’s structure ?

A

Ionic bonds are the electrostatic forces of attraction between positive ions and negative ions

Lattice structure

28
Q

What are the 3 types of bonding?

A

Metallic covalent and ionic

29
Q

Do ionic bonds conduct electricity as a liquid/solution ?

A

Yes they do

Ionic bonds do not conduct as a solid
