when does water freeze in fahrenheit?
32 degrees
What type of atoms make a covalent bond?
only non metals and metalloids
Why do we use lines and neat dots to show Ionic bonding?
Because it is a less messy way to do so
Which orbital has the least energy?
The S orbital
What happens when you go down the metric staircase?
You have to multiply by 10 everytime, or add 0's
Ionic bonds are between...
Metals and nonmetals
what is Ionic bonding
Bonding between atoms that involves one atom giving up electron to another in order to make them both stable.
What is the big green line?

What is the difference in bonding methods?
Ionic bonding gives up an electron to another element, while covalent bonding has 2 elements share an element in order to make them stable.

What is the difference between exothermic and endothermic reactions?
Endothermic --> Energy flows into the system
Exothermic --> Energy flows out of the system
Why is Kelvin an absolute scale?
It ranges from the coldest temperature to the hottest one.
