If an atom within a covalent bond has a higher electronegativity, what type of covalent bond will form?
Polar covalent bond
How dots are to be placed around the atomic symbol of an atom
one on each side--can't add a second dot until all sides have at least one
"Do you know what Francium is? Because I don't."

Group 17
The sodium ion and Neon have identical electron configurations (1s2, 2s2, 2p6). Despite this, why do they still have different chemical and physical properties?
1) sodium ion has a charge, neon does not
2) Sodium has a different number of protons than neon

F
Triple bond

Gavynn
Which group on the periodic table contains the radioactive elements?
Actinides
To understand how an atom will form an ion, we need to know how many valence electrons it has. How can we do this?
Use the periodic table group number rule OR write out its electron configuration
An ion made of two or more atoms
Polyatomic ion
Name the following covalent compound: P2S5
Diphosphorus Pentasulfide
How are bonds illustrated within a Lewis structure?
Solid lines

If we see the suffixes -ite or -ate, what element will be in that compound?
Oxygen
The theory that predicts some molecular shapes of covalent compounds based on the idea that pairs of valence electrons surrounding an atom repel each other.
VSEPR (valence shell electron pair repulsion) theory
How do you indicate that a Lewis structure is of a polyatomic ion?
Place brackets around the diagram, and write the charge outside of the brackets
USUALLY the chem lab group where everything is chaos and instructions are not followed
