Topic 4- Bonding Flashcards
What happens during conduction in terms of electrodes
Copper metal forms on the negative electrode
Chlorine gas forms on the positive electrode
What is electrolysis
Electrolysis is the breakdown of an ionic compound using electricity
What are 3 properties
Solubility
Melting and Boiling Point
Conduction using electricity.
Ionic compounds conduct when and why
The conduct when in molten[liquid] and in solution because then their ions are free to move about.
What are the charged particles called when a metal conducts and an ionic compound conducts
Metal-Electrons
Ionic compound -Ions
How are ions formed
When one or more electrons transfers from one atom to another.
What structure do ionic compounds form and what is it made of
The structure is known as Ionic Lattice and it is made up of a large number of oppositely charged ions.
How does ionic and covalent atoms bond
Ionic-Transferring electrons
Covalent-Sharing electrons.
What are the 4 types of shapes of molecules
Linear-1
Planar-2
Trigonal Pyramidal-3
Tetrahedral-4
