the atomic orbital from lowest to highest energy to achieve lowest energy configuration

22
Q

ex: Sodium(Na)

A

7 electrons are distribute as 2 electrons in 1s orbital, 2 in 2s, 6 in 3s, and 1 in the 3s orbital

23
Q

pure substance

A

depending on type of atoms elements exist in

A
  • atomic or molecular element
25
Q

compounds can be?

A

molecular or ionic compound

26
Q

single atoms are simplest units

A

of atomic elements
ex: helium, neon and krypton

27
Q

molecular elements contain?

A

2 or more identical atoms bonding together forming a molecule as the base unit
ex: hydrogen or sulfur

28
Q

Molecular compound is form?

A
  • when atoms of 2 or more nonmetallic elements combine by sharing valance electrons through covalent bonds
29
Q

Water form by

A

2 covalent bonds, 1 oxygen and 2 hydrogen atoms

30
Q

Ionic compound form by

A
  • when ions of metallic elements combined with ions of one or more nonmetallic elements by electrostatic forces
31
Q

A
  • common references in chem, elements organized in increasing atomic number and weight
32
Q

where does the abbreviation in the periodic table come from?

A

Latin or German origin

33
Q

humans 4 most used elements to live

A

oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen- make up 96% of matter
- they also contain calcium, phosphorus, potassium, sulfur

34
Q

Electrons

A
  • small subatomic particles- they’re (-) they’re attracted to and revolve around + charges nucleus occupying the majority of atoms volume
35
Q

located close to the nucleus- first energy level

A
  • have the least amount of energy- can only be 2 electrons
36
Q

electrons in the outer shell are called

A
  • Valance electrons- Can be shared or transfer between other atoms to form covalent or ionic bonds
37
Q

Ionic bond

A
  • noncovalent- hols 2 oppositely charges together.
38
Q

Ionic bond ex:

A

NA+ and CL-
- N+ transfer an electron to CL- and forms an ionic bond

39
Q

Ionic bonds

A
  • they depend on the environment
  • ionic compounds are stable on Air, with water molecules they will separate
40
Q

covalent bonds

A
  • when 2 atoms share valance electrons completing their outer shell converting one stable molecule with a single bond- it can increase
41
Q

Nonpolar covalent bonds

A

electrons shared equally between atoms
- atoms have the same electronegativity

42
Q

different elements with different electronegativity and unequal share of electrons are?

A

polar covalent bonds

43
Q

ex: covalent bonds

A

water

44
Q

hydrogen bonds

A
  • weak attractions between atoms with negative and positive charge but cumulative they’re very strong
45
Q

Chemical reactions

A
  • atoms in 1 or more substances (reactants) rearrange their structure by breaking chemical bonds between their atoms and forming new bonds to create the product
46
Q

for all chemical reactions

A

the number of atoms of each element is balance with the products they generate

47
Q
