Ionic Bonding
An ionic bond forms between these 2 types of elements
What is a metal and a nonmetal?
In covalent bonding, this happens to electrons
What is they are shared?
The name of the second element is a compound is always changed to this
What is -ide?
Horizontal rows in the PT
What are periods?
Negatively charged subatomic particles
What are electrons?
+ charged ions are called these
What are cations?
Covalent bonds always form between 2 of these types of elements
What are nonmetals?
The prefix for 4
What is tetra-?
Vertical columns in the PT go by these 2 names
What are groups and families?
Protons and neutrons are found here
What is the nucleus?
In an ionic bond, the total + and - of these must be equal
What are charges?
Covalent bonds that are unequally shared
What are polar (covalent bonds)?
The second term in a covalent compound must have one of these
What is a prefix?
This # of + charged particles determines the identity of the element
What is the atomic number?
These can be used to show the valence of an element
What are Lewis structures?
Ions that consist of more than 1 type of atom
What are polyatomic ions?
