1
Q
Types of bonds :
A
- single bond formation
- double bond formation
- triple bond formation
2
Q
- is a particle with an equal number of protons and electrons
- an atom which lose or gain one or more electrons
A
Ion
3
Q
Two types of ions :
A
cation
anion
4
Q
- or positive ion
- an atom which loses one or more electrons
A
cation
5
Q
- or negative ions
- an atom which gains one or more electrons thus there are more electrons than
Proton
A
anion
6
Q
Metals generally form _________
Non-metals form __________
A
cations
anions
7
Q
- attraction between positive and negative ions
- are formed between elements of opposite tendencies
A
Ionic bonds
8
Q
- a bond in which two atoms share a pair of electron
A
Covalent Bonds
9
Q
The new cloud after the bonding of the covalent bond is called ________ because it binds two atoms to form a molecule
A
“molecular orbital “
10
Q
This kind of molecular orbital is called
A
“ sigma (σ ) orbital”
11
Q
Any orbital, atomic or molecular, can hold a maximum of __________
A
two electrons
12
Q
Types of Formula:
A
structural formula
molecular formula
Lewis structure
13
Q
- shows all the atoms and all the bonds connecting them
- also known as Kekule structure / line-bond structure
A
Structural formula
14
Q
- gives less information since it only shows the number of atoms and not
the bonds
- also known as condensed formula
A
Molecular Formula
15
Q
- shows not only all the atoms and covalent bonds but also the other outer-
shell electrons including those that are unshared
A
Lewis Structure
16
Q
- compounds that have the same molecular formula but different structural formula
A
Isomers
17
Q
Types of isomerism
A
chain isomers
position isomers
functional isomer
18
Q
- if one varies the position of some alkyl groups on a parent carbon chain,
isomers of the given hydrocarbon are obtained
A
chain isomers
19
Q
- if the position of the double bond is transferred
- these will have the same number of carbons and hydrogens
A
position isomers
20
Q
- varying the position of the oxygen of the alcohol and the attached
hydrogen to a carbon on a parent chain, an ether is formed from an alcohol
A
functional isomer
