Unit 1 Flashcards
Bond Formations
Ionic transferred from metal to nonmetal
Covalent shared between two nonmetals
Metal delocalized among metal atoms
Physical States
Ionic solid
Covalent solid, liquid, or gas
Metal solid
Melting Points
Ionic high
Covalent low
Metal very high
Solubility
Ionic yes
Covalent usually not
Metal no
Electrical Conductivity
Ionic yes solution or liquid
Covalent not
Metal yes any form
Other Properties
Ionic no
Covalent odorous
Metal malleable, ductile, lustrous
Salts
Product of ionic bonding
Oppositely charged ions
Metal Alloys
Formed when metal atoms replace other metal atoms
Or when larger metal atoms occupy small spaces between larger atoms
True Molecule
A group of two or more atoms held together by chemical bonds
Forming the smallest identifiable unit of substance
Properties of Ionic Compounds
Bonds are very strong
High melting and boiling point
Does not conduct electricity in solid state but aqueous state
Solids at room temperature
Made of metal and nonmetal
Aqueous
Dissolved in water
Changes properties
Crystalline Solid
Three dimensional network of positive and negative ions
Mutually attracted to one another
Crystal Lattice
The orderly three dimensional arrangement
Ions
Electron Dot Diagrams
Place one dot on each side before pairing up
Besides helium which uses two dots on same side
Electron Dot Diagram Cation
Zero dots to represent losing level
Brackets and charge
Electron Dot Diagram Anion
Eight dots to represent octet
Brackets and charge
Formation of Ionic Compounds
Write metal first
Then nonmetal
Lattice Energy
Higher
Means stronger bond
Polyatomic Ions
Group of covalently bonded atoms that bond in such a way that the group has a net charge
Covalent Naming Rules
Name first element fully using prefix besides one
Second element always change to -ide and ad prefix
Acid Naming Rules
Start with hydrogen
No oxygen use hydro-
Find number of hydrogen based on charge of anion
Use other element or polyatomic ion name
-ate to -ic
-ite to -ous
Binary Acid
Second element nonmetal
Root of second elements name follows prefix
Ends with -ic acid
Writing Acidic Formulas
No hydro- tells oxyacid
Change -ic to -ate and -ite to -ous
Write symbol with their charges
All begin with H+1
Add the nonmetal
Crossover and reduce
Incomplete Octet
Hydrogen only forms one bond
Boron only forms three bonds
Beryllium only forms two bonds
