Octet Rule and Ionic Bonding
This kind of attraction results from the properties and characteristics of the atoms' outermost electrons, which are known as valence electrons- and occurs when atoms form chemical bonds with other atoms.
(Hint: Answer starts with the letter "e!")
What is electrostatic attraction?
This is a type of chemical bonding that involves the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions, or between two atoms with sharply different electronegativities, and is the primary interaction occurring in ionic compounds.
What is ionic bonding?
This is is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms, and the stable balance of attractive and repulsive forces between atoms, when they share electrons.
What is covalent bonding?
This is a type of chemical bonding that arises from the electrostatic attractive force between conduction electrons and positively charged metal ions.
What is metallic bonding?
Combining the name of the cation with the name of the anion- and making sure the cationic charge balances your anionic charge for a total charge of 0 when dealing with transition metals- is the simple process of how to name what kind of compound?
This rule of thumb in chemistry explains why elements want to have a full eight electrons, like noble gases do.
What is the octet rule?
These types of atoms form ionic bonds.
What are cations and anions?
These are two examples of a covalent bond forming.
High melting points, good electricity and heat conduction, high density, malleable, and ductile are all properties of what kind of material?
Metals.
This process:
1. Naming the non-metal furthest to the left on the periodic table by its elemental name.
2. Naming the other non-metal by its elemental name and an -ide ending.
3. Using the prefixes mono-, di-, tri-.... to indicate the number of that element in the molecule.
4. If "mono" is the first prefix, it is not written
...is the process of naming what kind of compound?
These are formed between metals and nonmetals so that a full octet can be reached.
What are ionic compounds?
This type of bond is formed when the valence (outermost) electrons of one atom are transferred permanently to another atom.
What is an ionic bond?
These types of electrons are shared between two atoms, typically two nonmetals, in covalent bonds.
What are valence electrons?
An atom that has had an electron stolen, and in effect has more protons than electrons, is called this.
What is a cation?
These are two examples of an ionic bond forming.
This rule is shown when a shared pair of electrons contributes to a noble-gas electron configuration on both atoms in a covalent bond.
What is the octet rule?
An atom that has stolen an electron, and therefore has a negative charge, is called this.
What is an anion?
These are properties and structures of ionic compounds.
(Answers may vary.)
Properties: High boiling and melting points, form crystals, brittle, usually dissolve in water, insoluble in polar solvents, do not conduct electricity in solid state, have higher thermodynamics to fusion and vaporization, etc.
Structures: Attract in all directions, attract oppositely charged ions, form giant lattice
