Test 2 (8, 10) Flashcards
What is a chemical bond? What is bond energy?
A force that holds 2 or more atoms together. The energy required to break a bond
What is an ionic bond?
Electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions. A metal reacts with a nonmetal.
What is lattice energy? What type of reaction is the formation of a lattice? What is the trend?
The energy required to separate a mole of ionic compound into its gaseous ions. The formation of a lattice is exothermic. Lattice energy increases as the charge increases or when the radius decreases. (more charge/smaller ions = more energy to break lattice).
What is covalent bonding?
a type of bond where e- is shared. Usually between two nonmetals
What is a polar-covalent bond?
a covalent bond in which e- are not shared equally because one atom attracts e- more (electronegativity) than the other atom.
What is electronegativity? Trends? Most electronegative element? Who developed a scale for this?
tendency of an atom to pull shared e- to itself. Increases down a period decreases down a group; this is the same as electron affinity. The most electronegative element is fluorine. Linus Pauling.
Know how to draw Lewis Structures
:)
Octet Rule? Exceptions?
An atom needs 8 valence electrons to be stable. Most 3rd row and below elements are an exception and can have more, as well as Be (4e-) and B (6e-).
What are dipoles? Dipole moment? What happens to some molecules with polar bonds? What 3 geometries exemplify this?
Have a positive center and a negative center. The dipole moment is a property of a molecule whose charge distribution can be represented by a center of positive charge and a center of negative charge. Some molecules may have polar bonds, but no dipole moment. POLARITY DEPENDS ON SHAPE TOO. Linear molecules, Trigonal Planar, Tetrahedral.
