100

What forces are bonds composed of?

Attractive and repulsive forces between the interacting charges of ions

100

What are the characteristics of ionic solids?

Brittle, hard solids with high melting points

100

What is the main difference between interstitial and substitutional alloys?

Interstitial alloys have smaller atoms in between larger atoms whereas substitutional alloys have element substitutes of similar size bonded to the existing metal structure. 

100

What is Mrs. Latta's Phone color?

Pink

200

How many valence electrons does Zinc (Zn) have?

2
200

H2O is composed of two double bonds whereas CH4 is composed of 4 single bonds. Which compound experiences the strongest and most stable bonds.

H2O

200

Why are ionic lattice structures formed the way they are?

The structure maximizes forces of attraction and minimizes forces of repulsion
200

What are the characteristics of metal bonding?

Good energy conductors, high melting and boiling points, shiny, malleability and ductility
200

What is Mrs. Latta's Dog Name?

Koda

300

Which of the following elements has the highest electronegativity?

1. Na  2. Mg  3. Cl  4. K   

Cl

300

Between NH3 and CO2, which molecule has the highest potential energy?

NH3

300

What factor mainly contributes to the high melting point of ionic solids?

Strong electrostatic attractions between ions

300

Why do metals have high conductivity?

There is a high presence of free electrons that can carry electric current through their "sea of electrons"

300

What kind of dog does Mrs. Latta have?

giant schnauzer

400
Does CuO or HCl have a higher melting point?

CuO

400
Does an ion with a +2 charge or +1 charge generally form stronger bonds?

The ion with the +2 charge

400

What are the main differences between ionic and covalent compound structures?

Ionic compounds form crystalline lattice structures whereas covalent compound structures are generally formed in more separate molecules. 

400

What does ductility refer to?

The ability of a metal to be stretched and spun into a wire without breaking

400
How old is Mrs. Latta?

28

500

What are the strength of coulombic forces dependent on?

Magnitude of charge and distance between particle nuclei

500
Is there more attraction or repulsion as internuclear distance increases?
Repulsion
500

How are ionic bonds formed and what happens to the atoms?

Valence electrons from a metal are transferred to that of a nonmetal transforming the metal into a positively charged cation and the nonmetal is transformed into a negatively charged anion

500

What effect does the addition of carbon to iron have on it's properties when forming steel?

Increases the hardness and strength of the metal

500

When is Mrs. Latta's birthday?

October 28
