Inorganic Chemistry

Question 1

Protons

Answer 1

Nucleus
Positive

Question 2

Neutrons

Answer 2

Nucleus
Neutral

Question 3

Electrons

Answer 3

Outside of nucleus
Negative

Question 4

Ions

Answer 4

An atom that has lost or gained an electron
It results in charges being created

Question 5

Isotope

Answer 5

Atoms with the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons.

Question 6

Valence Electron

Answer 6

Electrons located in the outermost shell of an atom

Question 7

Ionic Bond

Answer 7

Loss or gain of electrons that results in charges, metal + non-metal

Question 8

Covalent Bond

Answer 8

Equal sharing of electrons, no charges created, non-metal and non-metal

Question 9

Polar Bond

Answer 9

Unequal sharing of electrons. Partial charges created, non-metal + non-metal

Question 10

Cohesion

Answer 10

Water is polar, so water molecules are attracted to other water molecules (opposite charges attract). Therefore, water sticks to itself.

Question 11

Adhesion

Answer 11

Water is also attracted to other polar molecules (opposite charges attract). Therefore, water will stick to some surfaces.

Question 12

Surface Tension

Answer 12

The surface of water uses cohesion to stick together to resist external force.

Question 13

Atomic Number

Answer 13

Tells: # of protons

Question 14

Average Atomic Mass

Answer 14

Tells: Protons + Neutrons

Question 15

Mass number

Answer 15

Tells: number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus

Question 16

Hydrogen Bond

Answer 16

A weak bond between two molecules resulting from an attraction between a proton in one molecule and a negative atom in the other.
