Q

What makes an ion have a positive charge? negative charge?

A

when a metal loses electrons, it is left with more protons, so it results in a positive charge.
when a non-metal atom gains electrons, it is left with more electrons compared to protons therefore it results in a negative charge

Q

what is the process of naming univalent ionic compounds?

A
  1. name the cation first by using the element’s name (usually a metal)
  2. Name the anion second, change the ending to “ide”
    (usually a non-metal)

Q

what is the formula for univalent ionic compounds?

A
  1. write the symbol for the cation with the charge
  2. write the symbol for the anion with the charge
  3. criss-cross charges
  4. reduce the subscripts if necessary
    NOTES: find common denominator, put state down

  2. do not change the endings on polyatomic ions
17
Q

what is the formula for polyatomic ions?

A
  1. same rules as other ionic compounds
  2. put brackets around polyatomic ion IF more than one is needed
18
Q

what are covalent bonds (molecular elements and compounds)

A

a chemical bond that involves sharing a pair of electrons between atoms in a molecule

19
Q

what is a molecular element?

A

a pure chemical substance that naturally exists in groupings of to or more atoms of the same type as its simplest form

20
Q

what is a molecular compound?

A

composed of only non-metals

21
Q

what is the process for naming binary covalent (molecular) compounds

A
  1. the first element is named first, using the elements name
  2. second elements is named after changing the ending to “ide”
  3. prefixes are used to denote the number of atoms
  4. “mono” is not used to name the first element
22
Q

what are the greek prefixes used to name binary covalent (molecular) compounds

A

1=mono
2=di
3=tri
4=tetra
5=penta
6=hexa
7=hepta
8=octa
9=nona
10=deca

23
Q

Which between Ionic and Molecular compounds are conductive?

A

ionic! (when in solution) molecular are not conductive

24
Q

which between ionic and molecular compounds have a low melting point?

A

molecular! ionic compounds have a high melting point (800 degreesC)

25
Q

which between ionic and molecular compounds includes only non-metals

A

molecular! ionic compounds have cations and anions which include a metal + a non-metal

26
Q

which between I and M compounds is solid at room temp?

A

Ionic! molecular can be solid, liquid, or gas

27
Q

which between I and M compounds dissolve in water?

A

Ionic! Molecular may or may not dissolve

28
Q

What is the process to determine the solubility of an ionic compound using a solubility chart

A
  1. locate the anion across the top
  2. go down the column to find the cation
  3. go across to the first column to locate solubility
