The greek prefixes in the compound name, such as dinitrogen trioxide, indicate that the compound is formed through this type of bond.
What is a covalent bond?
100
The intermolecular force between similarly charged particles.

One of two fundamental laws in science, which states that matter cannot be created or destroyed.
What is the law of conservation of mass?
200
Ionic bonds form due to this intermolecular force of attraction.
What is electrostatic attraction?
200
Some nonmetals, such as Sulfur and Phosphorus, can "break" the octet rule and hold more than eight electrons, a characteristic known as this.
What is an expanded octet?
200
A type of metal that can form ionic or metallic bonds and is often seen with roman numerals behind its name to indicate its oxidation number.
What is a transition metal?
200
Shortened to the acronym VSEPR Theory.
What is Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion Theory?
200
This type of compound, if it appears on both sides of the equation, may treated as a single unit and its parts not counted separately.
What is a polyatomic ion?
300
Ionic bonds allow metals and nonmetals to fulfill the octet rule through this process.
What is electron transference?
300
Defined as the attraction an atom has for its electrons and the cause for polar covalent bonds.
What is electronegativity?
300
The formal name for the compound FeCl2.
What is Iron (II) Chloride?
300

What is 2 AgNO3 + 1 Cu --> 1 Cu(NO3)2 + 2 Ag
400
When ionic compounds are placed in water, the charged ions will dissociate into cations and anions allowing for this characteristic which is also seen in metals.
What is electrical conductivity?
400
A term that can be used to describe the unequal sharing of bonded electrons or the unequal distribution of electrons within a covalent molecule.
What is polar? DOUBLE JEOPARDY!!! The polarity of a molecule depends on different characteristics of a molecule, such as the electronegativity of its atoms, the presence of lone pairs, and this.
400
A compound made from a Vanadium (V) and an Oxygen.
