FORMATION OF COMPOUNDS, CHEMICAL BONDING, AND CHEMICAL FORMULA WRITING Flashcards
chemical combination of elements
Compound
a strong force of attraction of linkage between atoms due to interaction of electrons between them
Chemical bond
states that in compound formation, atoms electrons lose, gain, or share electrons in such a way that each atom participating in a chemical bonding acquires an electron configuration resembling that of the noble gas nearest in the periodic table, thus the outer shell containing 8 electrons
Ostet rule
formed by the transfer of electrons from a metal to a non-metal
Ionic or electrovalent compound
compound formed as a result of the transfer of electrons
Ionic or electrovalent compound
formed by the sharing of electrons between two non-metals
Covalent bonding
formed by the sharing of electrons between two non-metals
Covalent bonding
representation of the composition of compounds
Chemical formula
chemical formula contains:
- Symbol and formula of elements or radical present
- Number of atoms of each element present
group of elements which acts as one or single atom in chemical reaction
Radicals
putting the charge of an element to another element’s subscript to become electrically neutral
Criss-cross rule
Roman numeral indicated after the name
Stock system
the ic and ous ending are added
Classical or conventional system
ic
higher charge
ous
lower charge
