100

What is an atomic number on the periodic table?

The number in the top left of the box. Shows the number of protons in an element.

100

How many electrons does an element want to have for a full outer shell?

Eight (8) electrons

100

Which element is more electronegative: Sodium (Na) or Potassium (K)?

Sodium
100

Does Neon (Ne) have a strong electronegativity if it has a full outer shell of electrons?

No - it has no electronegativity

100

What is cohesion?

Intermolecular attraction between the same substance

200

What are intermolecular forces?

The attractive / repulsive forces acting between atoms.

200

How many valence electrons does Oxygen have?

Six (6) electrons

200

Why does Carbon (C) have a higher electronegativity than Boron (B)?

Because it has more electrons making a stronger attractive force

200
What type of bond is formed with Water (H2O)?

Ionic

200

What is a covalent bond?

An electron being shared between two atoms, creating a bond between two atoms.

300

What are small, basic molecules that act as building blocks for larger compounds?

Monomer

300

What charge do neutrons have?

Neutral charge

300

Which element is more electronegative: Nitrogen (N) or Oxygen (O)

Oxygen

300

*DAILY DOUBLE*

What type of bond is created?

Ionic Bond

300

What is the gravity-defying flow of liquid upward through narrow spaces called?

Capillary Action

400

What are valence electrons?

Electrons on the outermost shell on an element

400

How many protons does Potassium (K) have?

19 Protons

400

Why does Chlorine (Cl) have a higher electronegativity than Argon (Ar)?

Argon has a full outer shell meaning it does not want to gain or lose any more electrons. This means it also has the weakest attractive force

400

What type of bond is formed with Carbon Monoxide (CO)?

Covalent

400

What is an ionic bond?

An electron being taken by another atom, creating a bond between two atoms.

500

What is an intermolecular force?

The attractive or repulsive force between molecules / atoms

500

*DAILY DOUBLE* 

How many TOTAL electrons does Bromine (Br) have?

35 total electrons

500

*DAILY DOUBLE*

Why does Oxygen have a higher electronegativity than Sulfur?

Because Oxygen has a smaller atomic radius

500

What type of bond is formed with Sodium Phosphate (Na3P)?

Ionic

500

What is a large molecule made of repeating structures?

Polymer
