100

Why do atoms give or take electrons? 

To have a full outer energy level.

100

Ionic bonds form between ______ & ______.

Metals and Nonmetals

100

Covalent Bonds form between ______ & ______.

Nonmetals & Nonmetals

100

What is the difference between ionic and covalent compounds as far as electrons are concerned?

Atoms in ionic compounds transfer electrons to each other, and in covalent compounds the atoms share electrons
100

Name the ionic compound: Li2O

Lithium Oxide

200

What charge would an ion of Nitrogen have?

-3

200

What holds the atoms in ionic bonds together?

The ion's opposite charges.

 Ex. Na+ and F-...the opposite charges make the ions "stick" together.

200

In a (an) _______________, electrons are shared.

Covalent bond

200
Formula of Lithium Nitride

Li3N

200

Name this compound: CuCl2

Copper Chloride

300

An atom that has lost or gained electrons becomes a (an) _______.

ion

300

True or False?

Chlorine (#17) can form an ionic bond with all group 1 elements.  


False - Hydrogen is a nonmetal and will form a covalent bond with Chlorine

300

What holds the atoms in covalent bonds together?

The shared electrons are attached to BOTH nuclei

300

Why do ionic compounds conduct when dissolved in water?

Water separates the ionic compound into it's two ions.  The ions are charged particles, and will conduct electricity in water. 

300

Name this compound: PbS

Lead Sulfide

400

Do metals tend to give away or take valence electrons?

Give away

400

Draw the lewis dot structure for Sodium Sulfide.

400

Draw the lewis dot structure of a covalent compounds that is composed of Oxygen & Flourine

400

Do ionic compounds have a low or high melting point?

High melting point.  

(It takes a lot of energy to break ionic bonds)

400

Name the covalent compound: CH4

Carbon tetrahydride

500

What is the charge of a magnesium ion?

+2

How many ions of Potassium (#19) will there be in an ionic bond between Potassium and Nitrogen (#7)?

3

500

How many bonds (sharing of 2 e-) will there be between two Oxygen atoms?

2 bonds (see below)

500

When dissolved in water, are covalent compounds good or poor conductors?

Poor

500

Name this compound: H2S

dihydrogen monosulfide
