Electronegativity Quiz

Question 0

When does ionization energy decrease?

Answer 0

Moving down a group.

Question 1

Ionization Energy

Answer 1

Energy required to remove an electron from an atom in its gas state

Question 2

When does ionization energy increase?

Answer 2

Moving left to right across the PTE

Question 3

Atom size

Answer 3

Increase as you move down, decreases moving left to right.

Question 4

Bond

Answer 4

Force of attraction holding atoms together

Question 5

Electronegativity

Answer 5

The relative ability of an atom in a molecule to attract shared or bonding electrons

Question 6

Ionic bonds

Answer 6

One or more electrons are pulled away from a metal by a nonmetal

Resulting ions attract and clump together in an ordered pattern called a crystalline structure

Question 7

Covalent Bonds

Answer 7

Electrons are simultaneously attracted to two nuclei

Common making two of the same elements

Question 8

Polar covalent bond

Answer 8

If atoms are different elements but electrons are simultaneously attracted to two nuclei

Question 9

Dipole moment

Answer 9

One side of molecule is slightly negative while other side is slightly positive

Question 10

Continuum of polarity

Answer 10

Between totally ionic bonds and totally covalent bonds

Question 11

Important for almost all stable compounds

Answer 11

The atoms in the compound achieve noble gas electron configurations in the compound
