Ionic Compounds Flashcards
Properties of ionic compounds
High melting point, high boiling point, high hardness, only conductive in liquid/molten state
Electrolyte?
Ionic compound whose aqueous solution conducts an electric current
Formation of ionic compounds is always
Exothermic
Electron Affinity
How much attraction an atom has for an electron
Ionization energy
How easily an atom loses electrons
Lattice energy
Energy required to separate 1 mol of the ions of an ionic compound
What elements require Roman numerals
D-block and staircase
How is lattice energy determined
