exam 3 Flashcards
what effect does bonding have on potential energy
it LOWERS potential energy between positive and negative particles
ionic bond
nonmetal & metal (electron transfer)
covelant bonding
nonmetal & nonmetal (electron sharing)
metallic bonding
metal & metal (sea of electrons)
strongest type of bonds
Lewis dot structures use valence electrons from the…
group #
octet rule
when atoms bond they lose, gain or share electrons to attain a filled outer layer of 8 (H & Li are exceptions)
ionic bonding model
the transfer of electrons from metal atoms to non metal atoms
(atoms want to reach the nearest noble gas)
lattice energy
the enthalpy change associated with the process of separating 1 mol of ionic solid into gaseous ions
lattice energy increases with…
decrease in ionic radius
increase in ionic charge
bond order
the # of electron pairs being shared by a given pair of atoms
bond energy/strength
energy to separate = energy to form
always positive: breaking bonds is ENDOTHERMIC
bond length
the distance between the nuclei
higher bond order results in…
smaller bond length &
higher bond energy
molecular covelant substances are ______ and have _______ melting points
weak,low (due to weak forces between them)
breaking bonds
endothermic (positive)
forming bonds
exothermic (negative)
highest lattice energy
highest product of charges + smallest radius
charge first/radius second
electronegativity
relative ability of bonded atoms to attract shared electrons
oxidation #
valence e - (# of shared e + unshared e)
shared e go to the most electronegative
bond order
(# of electrons bonded - # electrons not bonded) divided by 2
