Term 4: Atomic Bonding

Question 1

Ion

Answer 1

Results from ionic bonding were the atom has a charge

Question 2

Isotope

Answer 2

When an atom has a different number of neutrons

Question 3

Ionic Bonding

Answer 3

This form of bonding involves the trading of atoms between elements so as to achieve a full valence shell.
Has a stronger connection than covalent bonding. Crystal Lattice Structure.

Question 4

Covalent Bonding

Answer 4

A form of bonding that occurs between two non-metals. This form of bond involves atoms sharing the electrons rather than giving them away. So both atoms “have” the electrons and use them to achieve a full valence shell.

Question 5

Valence Electron

Answer 5

The amount of electrons in the outermost shell of an atom

Question 6

Electron Shell

Answer 6

Within an atom of an element there are multiple orbitals where the electrons constantly move

Question 7

Period

Answer 7

Rows on the periodic table where elements have the same number of electron shells.

Question 8

Group

Answer 8

Columns on the periodic table that contains elements that share the same number of electrons needed to achieve a full valence shell.

Question 9

Orbital

Answer 9

A function used to describe the places where a given electron is likely to be. According to Bohr model but apparently incorrect which leads to quantum physics.

Question 10

Compound

Answer 10

Two different elements that are chemically bonded to eachother.

Question 11

Metallic Bonding

Answer 11

Metals release a cloud of electrons but stay together as they are surrounded by electrons and the negative forces counteract the need for them to get away from the other metals nearby. Lattice Structure

Question 12

How do transition metals interact in ionic compounds.

Answer 12

They can have a different charge, but the roman numeral tells us the charge of a particular molecule of said metal. Certain metals can only be a set charge, such as gold and silver.

Question 13

Polyatomic Anions

Answer 13

An anion that contains more than just one non-metal, generally speaking it is a non-metal like nitrogen and oxygen, creating negatively charged anions like nitrate and nitrite.

Question 14

-ide suffix

Answer 14

A suffix used to describe a singular atomic anion

Question 15

-ate suffix

Answer 15

A suffix used to describe a polyatomic anion that has the maximum amount of oxygen it could possibly have

Question 16

-ite suffix

Answer 16

A suffix used to describe a polyatomic anion with one less oxygen than it’s maximum

Question 17

Polyatomic Cations

Answer 17

A cation with more than just one metal. The only one we need to know for the test is NH3(GAS)[known as ammonia] or NH4(ionised form){liquid}[ammonium]

Question 18

Molecule

Answer 18

Two or more covalently bonded atoms
