How should a valence shell appear for any stable element?
The valence shell must be full.
What is a salt?
Any ionic compound!
Name the ion: S-2
Sulfide
What is the formula for the Iron (III) cation?
Fe+3
How many sig figs are in 1.012?
4
DOUBLE Jeopardy! Name a chemical family of elements that become anions to achieve octet stability.
Halogens or Halides
What is an ionic compound?
An ionic compound is any substance composed of atoms (ions) held together by ionic bonds.
Name the ion: Mn+7
Manganese (VII)
What is the formula for the Chlorate polyatomic ion?
ClO3-
2
What is the term that describes the force of attraction between cations and ions?
Ionic Bond
DOUBLE JEOPARDY! Why do ionic compounds tend to have high melting and boiling points?
The electrostatic attraction between cations and anions is extremely strong. A lot of energy is required in order to break an ionic bond.
Name the compound: Cs3N
Cesium Nitride
What is the formula for lithium phosphide?
Li3P
What is 1.0 + 1.000 using correct sig figs?
2.0
DOUBLE JEOPARDY! What ionic charge can we expect an atom to have if it has 5 valence electrons?
-3 (Gains 3 electrons)
An unknown substance appears to be a soft, white powder with a low melting point, dissolves in water, and does not conduct electricity when dissolved. Is this substance ionic or not ionic (covalent)?
Not Ionic ... Covalent
Name the compound: CuO
Copper (II) Oxide
What is the formula for gold (III) iodide?
AuI3
What is 100 in scientific notation using only 2 sig figs?
1.0 x 102
TRIPLE JEOPARDY! Why does gaining or losing valence electrons result in an electrostatic charge on an atom?
The number of electrons no longer equals the number of protons, causing an excess of positive or negative charges, thus, an ion is formed.
TRIPLE JEOPARDY!!! What do we call the energy required to separate ions in an ionic crystal?
Lattice Energy
Name the compound: (NH4)2O
Ammonium Oxide
What is the formula for calcium sulfate?
CaSO4
DOUBLE JEOPARDY! What is the formula for manganese (VII) cyanide?
Mn(CN)7
