A

seeing where a big peak in IE occurs

removing an electron from inner shell requires much much more energy than valence shell

137
Q

Electron affinity:

A

how much an atom wants to gain an electron

(likelihood of a neutral atom to gain an electron)

negative: energy is released when an electron is added
positive: energy must be added to the system to produce an anion
zero: process is energetically neutral

Halogens: high negative EA (more likely to gain electron)
Noble gasses: large positive EA (add electron requires energy, unlikely to gain electron)

138
Q

Ionization energy (IE) vs electron affinity (EA) of Mg+

A
139
Q

Chemical bonds:

A

formed to decrease energy → increase stability

  • Atoms only use valence electrons in bonding
  • Energy must be added to break chemical bonds, forming chemical bonds releases energy
140
Q

Ionic bond:

A

transfer of electrons (metal & nonmetal)

large electronegativity difference

141
Q

Ionic crystal lattice:

A

orderly 3D arrangements of cations & anions held together by electrostatic force of attraction

142
Q

Covalent bond:

Molecules:
Bond length:
Bond energy (BE):
Bonding pair:
Bond order:

A

SHARING electrons (nonmetal & nonmetal)

Molecules: smallest unit of covalent compound

Bond length: combined energy of both bonding atoms

Bond energy (BE): depth of the well at bond length → energy required to break bond or energy released when bond is formed

Bonding pair: shared electrons

Bond order: # electrons shared between a pair of atoms

143
Q

Potential energy vs internuclear distance (covalent bond)

A
144
Q

Non polar covalent bond:

A

equal sharing of electron pair (similar electronegativity)

Example: diatomic elements (Cl-Cl)

145
Q

Polar covalent bond:

A

unequal sharing of electrons (closer to one of the atoms) partial negative charge (poles) NM-

146
Q

ELECTRONEGATIVITY:

A

ability of an atom in a molecule to attract shared electron pair to itself (unmeasurable quantity, not absolute)

More electronegative atom has a stronger attraction for the bonding electrons (∂-), less electronegative atom (∂+)

Electronegativity values with respect to F

147
Q

Greater electronegativity (∆EN) = greater polarity of bond

A
148
Q

Naming: Type 1 binary ionic compounds

A

compound only contains 2 types of elements

metal nonmetal + ide

For cation, name = name of element
For anion, name = first part of elements name + suffix-ide

149
Q

Types of metal cations:

A
150
Q

Naming: Type 2 binary ionic compounds

A

contains metal that forms multiple types of cations

metal (charge on metal) nonmetal + ide

Chromium (I) nitride: Cr3N

151
Q

Ionic compounds with polyatomic ions:

A

compound with +1 atom

Dissolved in water, stays together as a single entity

152
Q

Naming: Binary covalent compounds

A

2 types of non metal atoms

prefix element 1 prefix element 2+ide

  • First element in formula treated as cation (name using full element name)
  • Second element treated anion (named similar to anion in ionic compound -ide)

Denote # atoms present use prefixes: mono (1), di (2), tri (3), tetra (4), pentra (5), hexa (6), hepta (7), octa (8)

NO (mononitrogen monoxide → nitrogen monoxide)

153
Q

Lattice energy:

A

energy released when oppositely charged ions come together to form solid compound

154
Q

When lattice energy is formed: what ions attract more slowly & release more energy

A

Smaller ions & ions with greater charges

Charges (q1, q2) have greater effect on LE than atomic radii (r)

155
Q

Why do atoms with high ionization energy tend to form coavelent bonds?

A

so that they do not form ions (won’t easily give up electrons) and electrons are available for sharing.
