15
Q

Covalent bonding

A

Two atoms share a pair of electrons sharing is caring

16
Q

Atoms of non metals need to…

A

Gain electrons to have stable electronic structures

17
Q

Atoms of elements in group 7 need to…

A

Gain one electron form a single covalent bond

18
Q

Many substances containing covalent bonds consist of…

A

Simple molecules

19
Q

In covalent some have giant covalent structures, give an example

A

Carbon

20
Q

What can giant covalent structures be called

A

Macromolecules

21
Q

Only use the word molecule when doing what

A

Describing substances that are covalently bonded

22
Q

What are th atoms like in a metallic element

A

All the same size

23
Q

What do metals form

A

Giant structures where atoms arranged the same

24
Q

Delocalised electron

A

Electrons in outer shell detach

25
Q

Why do elements in group 1 form ions with a single positive charge

A

As they loose one electron from outer shell to become stable

26
Q

Why do elements in group 7 form ions with a single negative charge

A

As they gain one electron to become stable

27
Q

Molecules

A

Group of atoms bonded together

28
Q

Why do ionic compounds have giant structures

A

Strong intermolecular forces so they can comply with, diamond being one with one carbon and three hydrogen
