This type of bond is characterized by the equal sharing of electrons
What are nonpolar covalent bonds?
The energy level that valence electrons find themselves
What is the outermost level?
The whole-numbers that goes in front of chemical species in a balanced reaction
What are coefficients?
A small unit that can repeat itself to form a much more complex molecule
What is a monomer?
Lewis Dot Diagrams only show these electrons
What are the electrons involved in bonding (valence)?
This type of bond involves the unequal sharing of electrons between atoms
What are polar covalent bonds?
This rule says that atoms like to 8 electrons in their valence shells
What is the octet rule?
We must balance chemical equations to satisfy this law
What is the law of the conservation of matter/mass?
Recyclable plastics undergo this type of change when heat is applied
What is physical change?
An element belonging to Group 17 has this many valance electrons
What is 7?
This type of bond is the result of the complete transfer of electrons from one atom to another
What are ionic bonds?
This set of elements is highly unreactive due to their full valence shells
What are the noble gases?
The number that goes in front of hydrogen in the reaction below to balance it:
H2 + O2 --> H2O
What is 2?
When a small unit is repeated many times
What is a polymer?
The molecule ammonium, NH4+, will have this around its Lewis Dot Diagram.
What are brackets?
Subtracting the values of this property between two bonded atoms determines the bond type
What is electronegativity?
Metals tend to do this with their outer electrons to become this
What is give up electrons to become cations (positively charged)?
The number that goes in front of carbon tetrachloride in the reaction below to balance it:
CH4 + Cl2 --> CCl4 + HCl
What is 1?
The connections between polymer chains that strengthen the molecule
What is crosslinking?
What is 2 bonds and 4 electrons?
These are the two boundaries that separate the three bond types
What is 0.4 and 1.7?
Gallium, with 3 valence electrons, will do this to satisfy the octet rule
What is lose 3 electrons to go down to the previous valence shell?
You will have to this to all the numbers in front of the formulas if one of them ends up being a decimal in order to keep the proportion between them the same, for example: 3.5O2
What is double the numbers?
The type of plastic that burns when exposed to heat rather than melting/reshaping
What is a thermoset?
This Lewis is a world-class Formula 1 driver and dating a Kardashian
Who is Lewis Hamilton?
