Chemistry Test chapter 9 cumulative Flashcards
Name the type of bond that results from sharing of four electrons.
Double bond
Covalent bond
Know the equation for ideal gas law.
PV=nRT
What is the heat required to cause a unit rise in the temperature of a unit mass of a given substance?
Specific heat
Absolute zero equals …
-273.15 degrees Celsius
0 kelvins
What causes the bright colored lines in the spectrum of glowing hydrogen gas?
Each line is a photon emitted when an electron drops to a lower energy level
What property is used to predict whether a bond is primarily ionic or primarily covalent?
Electronegativity
Name the principle that states elements tend to react chemically to achieve a noble gas electron configuration whether by losing, gaining, or sharing electrons.
Octet rule
Know and understand Exothermic chemical reactions.
- chemical reaction releasing energy, usually causes the products to become hotter than the reactants because some energy was released.
Understand the differences between compounds and mixtures.
Compound- are combined in definite proportions , are chemically combined, lose their properties to form a new substance with new properties, can be separated only by chemical means
Mixtures- are present in variable proportions, are not chemically combined, each component retains its properties, can be separated by physical means
Name the covalent bond in which the bonding electron pair is pulled closer to the more electronegative element.
Polar bond
Understand the uncertainty principle.
- it is impossible to simultaneously determine the momentum and the position of an electron with precision; either momentum or position may be measured precisely but not both.
Know and understand covalent bond.
Sharing of one or more electron pairs between two atoms
- atoms of non metals of similar Electronegativity
Know and understand ionic bond.
Electrostatic force of attraction between ions resulting from transfer of electrons
- atoms of metals and non metals having widely different electronegativites
Know and understand metallic bond.
Delocalized electron cloud around metal atoms
- atoms of metallic elements
