Q

ionic compound

A

when a metal gives electrons to a non-metal, they bond through electrostatic attraction. This forms an IONIC COMPOUND.
(sodium (Na) + chloride (Cl) = NaCl

18
Q

covalent bond

A

when two non-metal atoms join together to share electrons in order to reach full valance

19
Q

naming molecular compounds

A

the elements are given prefixes corresponding with their subscripts (number of atoms). The second element is given the suffix IDE

Methane

23

Water

24
Q

synthesis

A

2 or more reactants combine to form 1 product

Mg + O2 = MgO2

25
decomposition
1 reactant breaks down into 2 or more products | H2O = H2 + O2
26
single displacement
a single element replaces another in a compound | MgBr2 + Cl2 = MgCl2 + Br2
27
double displacement
part of 2 compounds switch places | NaOH + FeCl3 = Fe(OH)3 + NaCl
28
acid
if a substance can add an H atom to water | pH lower than <7
29
binary acid
hydrogen bonded to a single element | hydrochloric acid - HCl (aq)
30
oxyacid
hydrogen bonded to a polyatomic ion | nitic acid - HNO3 (aq)
31
base
if a substance can remove an extra H atom from water | (pH of more than 7
32
sodium hydroxide (base)
NaOH
33
sodium bicarbonate (base)
NaHCO3
34
neutral solutions pH
7
35

blue litmus paper
``` red = acid blue = neutral/basic ```
37
red litmus paper
``` blue = basic read = neutral/acidic ```
38
neutralization (product is neutral)
the reaction between an acid + base produces water (H2O) and an ionic compound (hydrochloric acid + sodium hydroxide = sodium chloride + water)
39
neutralization with (bi)carbonate as base
the reaction produces an ionic compound, water AND carbon dioxide (hydrochloric acid + sodium bicarbonate = sodium chloride + water + carbon dioxide)
40
Law of conservation
Mass of reactants is always equal to mass of products
