Why do atoms bond?

To achieve a stable electron configuration/octet.

100

Draw the Lewis Dot Structure for Fr+

[Fr]+

100

Describe the movement of electrons in a bond between LiF.

Li transfers an electron (1 electron) to F.

100

When an electron is equally attracted to the nuclei of two atoms at the same time

Nonpolar covalent bond

100

The greater the boiling point, _________ the strength of the intermolecular force.

GREATER

200

When a bond is formed what happens to energy in the reaction?

Energy is released.

Or

PE is decreased.

200

Determine which element becomes a cation and which becomes an anion in the following ionic compound. Determine their correlating charges. 

CaCl2

Ca becomes a cation with a 2+ charge.

Cl becomes an anion with a 1- charge.

200

Describe the movement of electrons in CH4 and determine what kind of general bonds are present.


Electrons are shared in CHand there are covalent bonds.

200

How do you determine the bond polarity of a substance?

Finding the difference in electronegativity of the elements.

200

Name the three types of intermolecular forces in order of increasing strength.

1. London Dispersion/Dispersion Force

2. Dipole-Dipole

3. Hydrogen Bonding

300

Describe the energy change based on the following chemical reaction. Determine if bonds are forming or breaking.

 2H2O → 2H+ O2

Bonds breaking and energy is absorbed.

300

Draw the Lewis Dot for H2

H:H

300

Why are metals able to conduct electricity? 

Metals are able to conduct electricity because they have a sea of mobile electrons  (delocalized valence electrons).

300

Which element has the greatest tendency to attract electrons in a chemical bond?

a. Francium

b. Oxygen

c. Neon

d. Chlorine

d. Chlorine

300

Explain in terms of strength of intermolecular forces why a substance is a solid at STP and another substance a gas.

The substance that is a gas has very weak intermolecular forces as opposed to the solid with very strong IMFs.

Based on these results, the solid substance could be

a salt/ionic compound

400

Describe what must be present in order for hydrogen bonding to occur between molecules.

A H of one molecule must be attracted to a F, O, or N of another molecule.
