Question 7

Monatomic ion

Answer 7

an ion formed by a single atom

Question 8

Polyatomic ion

Answer 8

an ion formed from more than 1 atom

Question 9

Binary Compound

Answer 9

a compound composed of 2 elements

Question 10

Why do elements want to form ionic bonds?

to achieve noble gas configuration, full valence shell (octet)

Question 11

What are ionic bonds?

Answer 11

ions held together by oppposite charges,

Question 12

What holds together ionic bonds?

Answer 12

electrostatic charge, cations and anions

Question 13

formula unit

Answer 13

simplest ratio of elements in an ionic compound

Question 14

What are ionic compounds called?

Answer 14

salts

Question 15

What is the total charge of any ionic compound?

Answer 15

zero

Question 16

What can create a stronger bond?

Answer 16

higher charges

Question 17

How does distance effect an ions bond?

Answer 17

shorter distance=stronger bond (smaller radii)

Question 18

What is a crystalline solid?

Answer 18

a regular repeating arrangement of ions in the solid

Question 19

What are the properties of a crystalline solid?

Answer 19

The ions are strongly bonded together; the structure is rigid,

Question 20

properties of ionic compounds

Answer 20

crystalline solid, high melting points

Question 21

What is a coordination number?

Answer 21

number of ions of opposite charge surrounding it

Question 22

Can ionic compounds conduct electricity?

Answer 22

Ionic compounds are usually solid at room temperature, which means they are insulators. Once they are melted or dissolved, they coulf conduct electricity

Question 23

How does melting or dissolving a solid allow for it to conduct electricity?

Answer 23

The ions are free to move around, which allows the electric currents to move as well

Question 24

Why are ionic crystals brittle?

Answer 24

The oppositily charged particles will slide past eachother, but since like charges repel, it will break apart the crystal.

Question 25

metals are always

Answer 25

cations, positive charge

Question 26

nonmetals are always

Answer 26

anions, negative charge

Question 27

What does a chemical formula show?

Answer 27

the kinds and numbers of atoms in the smallest representative particle of the substance

Question 28

What is written first in a ionic compound?

Answer 28

cations, then anion

Question 29

What is the smallest representative particle called?

Answer 29

formula unit

Question 30

What metals can have multiple charges?

Answer 30

transition-post transition metals (with exceptions)

Question 31

What are the 2 methods of clarifying if the metal has more than 1 charge

Answer 31

Stock System and Classical Method

Question 32

What is the Stock System

Answer 32

Putting roman numerals after the name (Ex. Copper (II)

Question 33

What is the classical method

Answer 33

Using suffixes, -ous & -ic (Ex. Cupric)

Question 34

What are the transition metals with only 1 charge? (Exceptions)

Answer 34

Silver Ag+1 Cadmium Cd+2 Zinc Zn+2

Question 35

What the post-transition metals with multiple charges? (Exceptions)

Answer 35

Tin (II) Sn+2 Tin (IV) Sn+4 Lead (II) = Pb+2 Lead(IV) = Pb+4

Question 36

Can the charge of the cation change?

Answer 36

Yes, since some transition and post-transition metals have multiple charges

Question 37

Can the charge of the anion change?

Answer 37

No, all the nonmetals only have 1 charge
