chemistry part-2 Flashcards
what drives chemistry?
- kind of bonds between atoms in compounds.
- movement of electrons (valence electron at the most outer shell moves around)
- molecule size and shape
- temperature
Type of bonds
- Ionic
- covalent
how to determined type of bond
by the power of an atom to attract electrons to itself.
Covalent bonds
- formed between atoms with similar electronegative.
- share electrons from outer molecular orbit.
- these bonds are formed between non-metal atoms.
- definite shape
- low melting point
- low boiling point
ex: methane(CH4), hydrochloric acid (HCI)
Ionic bond
- formed between atoms with different electronegative.
- one of the atoms will lose the electron to the other atom (in covalent they share)
- transfer of electrons between atoms.
- this results In cation and anion.
- formed between metal and non-metal atoms
- no defined shape.
- high melting point and boiling point
ex: sodium chloride (NaCl)
Cation
positively charged ion (+1)
when they lose electrons.
Anion
Negatively charged ion (-1)
when they gain electrons.
Electrolytes in body fluid
sodium Na+ Chloride Cl- Magnesium Mg2+ Calcium Ca2+ Potassium K+
What have full valence electron configuration?
Noble gases means full outer energy level
- last row of periodic table is know as noble gases because it has a full valency election, the outer shell has full electrons.
Why electron moves
to becomes as astable as group 18 noble gases
Types of molecules
polar and non-polar
is single oxygen, O, molecule?
no
Types of molecules
polar and non-polar
Types of covalent bond
polar and non-polar
Polar molecules
- electrons are not equally shared
- one part of molecule is more negative that the other
- so, molecule has negative and positive poles
- hydrophilic (‘water loving’)
Non-polar molecules
- electron are equally shared
- there is no poles.
- hydrophobic (water fearing)
polar covalent
- atoms with different electronegativities bound together.
- occur between different atom types
- bonding electrons found closer to one atom
non-polar covalent
- atoms with similar electronegativities bound together.
- occur between identical atom types
- bonding electrons found halfway.
what kind of molecules can be mixed in another
molecules of similar polarity
example of polar substances
water, salt, sugar, blood, ammonia, ethanol
example of non-polar substances
fat, oil, wax, petrol, butter, soap, bubblegum
