5 total

200

we balance equations to make sure we follow the Law of __________________

Law of Conservation of Mass (Matter is also OK)

200

a negatively charged ion is called ________

anion

200

covalent bonds typically form between ___________ & _____________

This vocab word is a mixture that looks the same throughout, like milk or orange juice, and has dissolved solids. Using evaporation is one of the ways to separate the matter.

Homogeneous mixture

How many atoms are in 2Al(OH)3

2 Aluminum atoms

6 Oxygen atoms

6 Hydrogen atoms

14 atoms total

Which of these equations is balanced?

1.     H2O -> H2 + O2

2.       1F2 + 1Na -> 1NaF

3.     2Mg + Si -> Mg2Si

Equation 3 is balanced

name the two groups from the periodic table that frequently make ionic bonds together

Metals & nonmetals

Oxygen will form how many typical covalent bonds to become stable?


2!

It needs two more valence electrons to get to eight, so it will need to share an electron twice from neighboring atom(s)

Plan how to separate the following mixture, but you can use each step/tool only once:

Dirt, water, sugar, rusty iron, marbles

Answers will vary:

Remember that you typically want to evaporate last or near last since removing small solids like sand/dirt/sugar/salt is difficult if they're the last few things together!
