Periodic Table/Elements
Compounds and Bonds
100
An electron that is found in the outermost shell of an atom and that determines the atom's chemical properties
What is a "Valence Electron"?
100

An atom would want to lose an electron in order to become stable.

What is an atom that is "less than half full"?

100

The ion for antimony (Sb) is negative 3.

What is an "anion"? 

100
This family on the periodic table is already full.
What are "noble gases"?
100
An interaction that holds atoms or ions together.
What is a "chemical bond"?
200
When the atoms of each element have the same number of valence electrons
What is a "family"?
200
An atom would want to gain an electron in order to become stable.
What is an atom that is "more than half full"?
200
The atoms that lose electrons and have more protons
What is a "positive ion"?
200

These are the families on the periodic table who always lose electrons and are always positive.

What are families "1, 2, and 3"?

200
A substance formed when two or more atoms bond together.
What is "compound"?
300
The amount of electrons needed to fill up the outermost cloud of the atom
What is "eight valence electrons"?
300
The number that indicates the charge of an atom.
What is an "oxidation number"?
300
When an atom has more electrons than protons
What is a "negative ion"?
300
This is the ion for Lithium.

  What is a the cation Li+1

300

Charged particles that form when atoms gain or lose electrons

What is an "ion"?
400
The element that is the exception to the Octet Rule and has a full outer shell with 2 electrons.
What is "Helium"?
400
This model of the atom uses all of an atoms subatomic particles in its diagram.
What is a "Bohr Model"?
400
A ion that gains electrons in order to become stable.
What is an "anion"?
400
This is the ion for oxygen?

What is the Anion O -2

400

A bond that forms when valence electrons are transferred from one atom to another.

What is an "ionic bond"?
500
The rule that says that atoms lose or gain electrons to obtain a full outer shell, usually 8 valence electrons.  
What is the "Octet Rule"?
500

This model of the atom uses only the valence electrons its diagram.

What is a "Lewis Dot Structure"?
500
An ion that loses electrons and is always positively charged.
What is a "cation"?
500
This is the ion for boron.

What is the cation B +3

500

This is where a chemical bond takes place.


What is "between valence electrons"?
