Exam 2 - PREP Flashcards
topics: GASES, ATOMS AND ELEMENTS, MOLECULES COMPOUNDS AND NOMENCLATURE
2.1) A _________ is a neutral species that is comprised of two or more atoms that are linked together.
Molecule
P2Cl5
sub2
sub5
is a type of Binary covalent compound because both phosphorus and chlorine are nonmetals. By using the rules for naming this compound the name is
diphosphorus pentachloride
MgClO3
sub3
is an NONBINARY compound because three elements are present in the compound. In this case, recognize the POLYATOMIC ion ClO3-
sub 3 with 1 negative charge.
ClO3- is bound to a metal. the rule is to _____________
therefore the name is __________.
The rule for naming compounds with polyatomic atoms attached is
1. keep the same order
2. use the polyatomic name properly (don’t forget the ate, ite, per, hypo)
the name is
magnesium chlorate
During chemical reactions- metals tend to __________
electrons. nonmetals tend to ________ electrons. Noble gases tend to __________ electrons due to their complete outer energy level.
lose electrons (cation),
gain electrons (anions),
neither gain nor loose
Naming compounds by their formulas
Na2S (sub2)
Pb3N2 (sub3sub2)
explain each
Both are binary compounds, therefore you must add the ide at suffix to the last element.
Na2S is Sodium sulfide
Lead is a transition metal and REQIURES roman numberals to express the type of charge it has. Cross down method can be done it reverse to find the ORIGINAL charges before they synthesized. Therefore Pb’s charge was 2 and N charge was 3. Nitrogen must have an ide at the end because its binary compound.
Pb3N2 is Lead (III) Nitride
2.1) The rows of the periodic table are called: ___________
PeRiods
Whats the formula for potassium Nitrate?
explain
Potassium nitrate intells K and Nitrogen polyatomic compound. Therefore the rules is for naming a nonbinary compound must be applied.
KNO3 (sub3)
The _______ ________ is the same for all atoms of an element. While isotopes is a species of an element with different # of neutrons.
Atomic number
Name the compound SF6
Sulfur hexafluoride
it’s a BINARY compound. keeps the ide.
It’s a covelant compound because both are NONmetals. therefore to write symbols correctly add the “honorifics” numerical prefixes
hexa hepta mono etc
hexa is 6.
because the most active metals react with water to form bases, they’re called ________ metals. As you move to the right of the periodic table, the base forming properties ________ and the __________ properties increase.
alkali metals
decreases
acid forming
Whats the formula for Sodium sulfide?
Na2S
sodium sulfide is made of sodium Na and Sulfur S. they’re a metal and nonmetal. therefore the naming convention is to use their electric charges and cross or reverse cross method. the cross method will give you the correct numver of atoms.
Original is Na1 S2
cross down Na2S
The elements in the first 2 groups are light metals, the metals toward the center are __________ metals.
heavy
Whats the formula for Aluminum Chloride?
AlCl3
binary compounds are cross up or cross down method iot cancel the charges. Chlorine is -1 Aluminum is +3 so it has to be AlCl3 to
Periodic table charge patterns start

Grp13_____
Grp14_____
Grp15____
Grp16____
Grp17____
Grp18____
1 +1 alkali
2 +2 alkali earth
3-12 varies
13 +3
14 0
15 -3
16 -2
17 -1 halogens
18 0 noble gases
2.1) The columns of the periodic table are called: ____________
Groups
In general, on the periodic table:
Metallic properties and acid forming properties are greatest on the _______ side and decrease as you move right.
Nonmetallic properties and base-forming properties are greatest on the _________ side of the table and decrease as you move left.
left (group 1 and 2)
right (group 18,27)
GAS PROPERTIES
As the temperature of a gas is increased, its __________ energy is increased. thereby increasing random motion.
kintetic
Group 17 on the periodic table is called: _______________
halogens or (halides organic chem)
What’s the definition of an acid?
“a water solution that has an excess of hydrogen ions”
an acid turns litmus paper pink or red, has a sour taste, and _________ __________ to form ________.
neutralizes bases
salts
definition of a metal:
An element whose oxide combines with ______ to form a base; can also refer to an element that readily ______ electrons and becomes a cation.
water
loses
Group 1 on the periodic table is called: ________________
Alkaline Metals
definition of a nonmetal:
an element whose oxide reacts with _______ to form an acid; can also refer to an element that takes on an ________ and acquires a negative charge anion.
water
electron
What group is the Alkaline Earth metals?
Group 2
