definition Flashcards
period
horizontal rows of the periodic table of elements
groups
a column in the periodic table of elements
Ionic bonds
Positively charged ions are formed when a metal atom donates its valence electrons in order to achieve a stable octet or duplet electron arrangements
covalent bonds
Non-metal element atom combines together by sharing electrons in order to achieve a stable duplet or octet electron arrangements
hydrogen bonds
Attractions forces between hydrogen atoms that have bonded W an atom of high electronegativity
dative bond//coordinate bond
The type of covalent bond where the electron pair that shares comes from one atom only
metallic bond
electrostatic force of attraction between sea of electrons and the positively charged metal ion
delocalised electrons
Electrons that move freely and are not owned by any atom or ion
Standard electrode potential value
Potential diff produced when an equilibrium is established between metal and aqueous solution containing metal ion
electrolytes
Substance that can conduct electricity in an aqueous solution or molten state but not in solid state
Undergoes chemical changes when electricity passed
Non-electrolyte
Consists of molecules
Do not have free movingbioje
Melting point
The temperature at which a solid change into a liquid at the particular pressure
Freezing point
What’s the temperature at which a liquid change into a solid at the particular pressure
Super cooling
A condition in which the temperature of a cooling liquid drop below its normal freezing point without the appearance of a solid
Nucleon number
The total number of proton and neutron in the nucleus of an atom
Isotopes
Atoms of the same elements I have the same proton number but different nucleon number
Relative atomic mass
Element is the average month of an atom of the element when compared to 1/12 of the mass of an atom of carbon C-12
Empirical formula
A chemical formula that shows the simplest whole number ratio of atom of each element in the compound
Empirical formula
A chemical formula that shows the simplest whole number ratio of atom of each element in the compound
Molecular formula
A chemical formula that shows the actual number of an atom of element that combines to form the compound
