18
Q

two types of ion

A

cations and anions

19
Q

are positively charged ions. A cation has fewer electrons (e-) than protons

•By losing one, two, or three e-, an atom forms a completely filled outer shell of e-

A

Cations

20
Q

are negatively charged ions. An ion has more e- than protons

By gaining one, two, or three electrons, an atoms forms an anion with a completely filled outer shell of e-
•The octet rule: a main group element is especially stable when it possesses an octet of e- in its outer (valent) shell
•Octet = 8 valence e-

A

anions

21
Q

are ions composed of more than one atom

A

polyatomic ions

22
Q

are crystalline solids that have very high melting points (NaCl = 801 oC) and extremely high boiling points (NaCl = 1413 oC)

•When dissolve in water, they separate into cations and anions. The resulting aqueous solutions conduct an electric current.

A

ionic compounds

23
Q

common ions in the body

A

Ca2+ is found in teeth and bones
Na+ and K+are found in all body fluids
Fe2+ is present in thehemoglobin of the blodd
CI- is present in the gastric juicesof the stomach and other fluids
Mg2+ is needed for nerve transmission and muscle control.

24
Q

common ions in consumer products

A

Barium sulfate, BaSO4, in visualizing the digestive system in X-rays

Sodium nitrite, NaNO2, prevents the growth of bacteria in canned goods

Sodium fluoride is added in drinking water and dental products to help prevent tooth decay.

Minute amounts of potassium iodide and other salts containing iodine are present in iodized table salt to ensure adequate intake of iodine in the diet

25
Q

result from the sharing of electrons between two atoms.

  • A covalent bond is a two-electron bond in which the bonding atoms share the electrons.
  • A molecule is a discrete group of atoms held together by covalent bonds
A

Covalent bonds

26
Q

are formed when two nonmetals combine, or when a metalloid bonds to a nonmetal.

A

covalent bonds

27
Q

How many covalent bonds will a particular atom form?

A

Atoms with one, two, or three valence e- generally form one, two, or three bonds, respectively.

Atoms with four or more valence electrons form enough bonds to give an octet

28
Q

shows the number and identity of all of the atoms in a compound, but not which atoms are bonded to each other

A

molecular formula

29
Q

shows the connectivity between atoms, as well as the location of all bonding and nonbonding valence electrons

A

Lewis Structure

30
Q

Steps in Drawing Lewis Structures of Molecules

A
  1. arrange atoms
  2. Count the total number of valence electrons
  3. Arrange bonding electrons and loan pairs.
  4. Use multiple bonds to fill octets when needed.
31
Q

How to determine molecular shape:

A

1.Locate the atom where molecular shape is to be determined.

  1. Count the number of groups around the atom
  2. Determine which groups are atoms or lone pairs
32
Q

is a measure of an atom’s attraction for e- in a bond

•It tells how much a particular atom “wants” e-

A

electronegativity

33
Q

oIndividual bond dipoles that cancel

35
Q

Polar molecules generally have:
oAt least one polar bond
oIndividual dipoles that do not cancel
