Chemistry Paper 1 Flashcards
How does covalent bonding work
The electrons are shared
Non metalic and non metalic
How does metalic bonding work?
They share delocolised electrons
Metals and metals or alloyes
Hwo does ionic bonding work?
Sharing of electrons
Non metal and a metal
What are the 3 states of matter?
Solid (s)
Liquid (l)
Gas (g)
What happens at the melting point?
Melting and freezing
What happens at the boiling point?
Boiling and condencing
Draw a diagram of a solid, liquid gas?
Solid all bunched up
Liquid randomly in a box with some overlaping
Gas spread out
What may make an substances boiling or melting point change?
The amount of energy needed to break the bonds made. This may change depending on the type of bond and the structure of the substance
What are the limitations of showing the 3 states of matter un boxes?
There are no forces shown Particles are presentef as solid spheres They are presented as inelastic spheres (to do with changing of state) The spheres apear solid Not to scale
Does a singular atom have the same properties of the whole substance?
No
What are the 4 state symbols?
(s) Solid
(l) Liquid
(g) Gass
(aq) Aqueos Solution
What is a property of a giant covalent structure?
High melting and boiling point as all atoms are linked several times with strong covalent bonds
Give 3 forms of Carbon?
What are these examples of?
Diamond
Graphite
Silicon dioxide
Giant covent structures
Whst can silicon dioxide also be called?
Silica
Why do most metals have high boiling and melting points?
They use strong metalic bonding in giant structures?
What is a giant structure?
A 3D structure
Most atoms are connected to lots of others making menaing to melt it you need to overcome the energy needed to break multiple bonds
What is a charatristic of oure metals?
Why?
They are soft and can be bent and shaped
The atoms are arranged in layers
They are good conductors of electricity because of the delocolised electrons
Also they are good conductors of thermal energy because energy if transohered by the delocolised electrons throught the metal quickly
How may you make an metal stronger?
Why?
You may mix some layers together to create an alloy
This will distort the layers and make it so that they layers can’t easily slide ofer each other
How do you create a metal oxide?
React a metal with oxygen
What happens when you react oxygen with a metal?
You create a metal oxide
Do metals form positive or negative ions?
Positive
What is a reactivity series?
A list of subatances (normally metals) which are arranged in order of their tendency to form positive ions (how reactive they are)
State an reactivity series?
How can these be ordered?
Potassium Sodium Lithium Calcium PSL CMZ IC Magnesium Zinc Iron Copper
Their reaction with water and dilute acids
What 2 non metals are often included in a reactivity series?
Hydrogen
Carbon
What is a displacment reaction?
When a more reactive metal kicks out a less reactive metal in a compound
Exploain OILRIG?
Oxidation Is Loss Reduction Is Gain
This is to do with the gain and loss of electrons not oxygen (of it is to do with oxygen then it is the oposite)
