π©· Unit 2: Chemical Bonds Flashcards
1
Q
Chemical Bonds
A
electrons are shared, borrowed or donated to fill outer energy level
2
Q
Ionic Bonds
A
when an atom gives an electron to another atom
- not stable
- dissociate in water = electrolyte
3
Q
Electron Donor
A
gives up electron (ex: Na+)
4
Q
Electron Acceptor
A
receives an electron (ex: Cl-)
5
Q
Ions
A
atoms that carry an electrical charge
6
Q
Cation
A
positive ion (Na+)
7
Q
Anion
A
negative charge (Cl-)
8
Q
Covalent Bonds
A
atoms share electrons
- no ions formed
- strong
- donβt dissociate in water
9
Q
Hydrogen Bonds
A
weak attractive force between hydrogen, fluorine, oxygen, nitrogen atoms
10
Q
Properties of Hydrogen Bonds
A
- not strong enough to form molecule
- common in water
- creates surface tension
- shapes DNA and proteins
