What is a bond? 

A bond is a connection between two molecules. 

100

Why do elements form compounds? 

To become stable; Atoms will gain, lose, or share electrons in order to have 8 valence e- in their outer energy shell 

100

Oxidation numbers

  • Charge of an ion within a compound

100
  • Binary ionic compounds

  • Compounds made of 2 elements that transfer e- in an ionic bond

100

Molecule:

A neutral group of atoms held together by covalent bonds.

200

Intramolecular Forces  vs. Intermolecular Forces  

INTERmolecular Forces act BETWEEN atoms inside a molecule.Bonding them chemically.


INTERmolecular Forces act within different substances Think INTERNATIONAL 

200

Would elements ever not benefit from forming compounds?

Yes if they are a Noble gas.

200

What compound will form between Magnesium and Bromine?

MgBr2

200
  • Compounds with polyatomic ions

  • Polyatomic ion: a charged group of covalently bonded atoms

200

Diatomic elements

  • when 2 atoms of the same element exist naturally as a molecule
    H2, N2, O2, F2, Cl2, Br2, and I2

300

types of bonding 

There are many different types of bonding; chemical, molecular, ionic, covalent and metallic bonding. 
300

Which substance contains bonds that involved the transfer of electrons from one atom to another?

A) CO2    B) NH3    C)KBr     D) Cl2



C)KBr  

300

Atoms have

equal numbers of protons and electrons, making them neutral

300

Binary molecular compounds

  • Compounds made of 2 elements that share e- in a covalent bond

300

Which compound has both ionic and covalent bonding?

A)CaCO3    B) CH2Cl2    C) CH3OH  D) C6H12O6

A)CaCO3

400

Difference between Ionic and Covalent Bonding 

Ionic bonding:Transferring electrons from one species to another and forming ions

Covalent:Sharing a pair of electrons between atoms

400

Polar covalent vs. Nonpolar covalent

Polar: Unequal sharing of e-

Nonpolar: Equal sharing of e-



400

Cations

positively charged from losing electrons (typically metals)

400

What is the formula for the compound that forms between calcium and nitrogen?

Ca3N2

400
  • The tendency for electron pairs to be as far apart from one another as possible, why? 

Because the valence e- are repulsed by each other.

500

What does BARF stand for

Broken 

Absorbed 

Released 

Formed 

500

Covalent bond:

  • bond that results between nonmetallic elements that share valence electrons, forming a molecule. 

500

Anions

  • negatively charged from gaining electrons (typically nonmetals)



500
  1. Aluminum and Chlorine

AlCl3

500

Tendencies of Covalent compounds 

  • Tend to still follow the octet rule.

  • Bonds can be single, double, or triple.


    • Double bond = 4 e- shared
