Q3: Lesson 4 | Chemical Formula Naming Flashcards
shows the elements in a compound and their relative proportions
chemical formula
____ formula of an organic compound simply shows the number of each type of atom present. it tells you nothing about the bonding within the compound
molecular formula
___ formula of an organic compound gives the simplest possible while number ratio of the different types of atom within the compound
empirical formula
____ formula, each carbon atom is listed separately, with toms attached to it following. in cyclic parts of molecules, lie benzene, carbons are grouped
condensed formula
formula shows all of the atoms and all of the bonds present in an organic compound
displayed formula
similar to displayed formula, not all bonds are shown but all atoms are still indicated using subscript numbers
strctural formula
___ formula, most hydrogen atoms are omitted. line ends or vertices represent carbons
skeletal formula
combination of two or more elements
compound
substances that exist as two or more atoms connected together
molecule
transfer of electrons between metals and nonmetals
ionic bonding
sharing of electrons between nonmetals
covalent bonding
bond that occur between metals
metallic bonding
it has more protons
cations
when it has more electrons
anions
they lose electrons and become positively charged).
cations
(they gain electrons and become negatively charged).
anions
type of compound where atoms are bonded together by shared pairs of electrons formed between nonmetals
molecular compound
compound where ions attracted to eachother by opposite charges; formed between a metal and nonmetal
ionic compound
happens when electrons in a molecule are not shared equally between atoms.
polarity
force that holds atoms together in a molecule or compound
chemical bond
ions are held together by electrostatic forces-forces between oppositely charged ions
ionic compounds
atoms are held together by covalent bonds in which electrons are shared
molecular compounds
element that contains more than 1 atom
molecular element
element that does not contain more than 1 atom
atomic element
