100

Which type of bonding involves the sharing of electrons?

Covalent bonding

100

What charge do Group 2 metal ions have?

+2

100

What is the unit for energy?

J or kJ

100

What is the formula for density?

Mass/Volume

100

Why do helium balloons float but air balloons don't?

Helium is less dense than air

200

Which substance has metallic bonding?

A) NaCl
B) O₂
C) Cu

C) Cu

200

What happens to reactivity down Group 1? 

Increases

200

What is the specific heat capacity of water?

4.2 J/g°C

200
If mass increases and volume stays the same, what happens to density?

Density will increase

200

Lock in. 

Explain the difference between "to cook" and "to be cooked" in slang. 

To cook - something is about to be impressive

To be cooked - ruined/over/beyond saving

300

Why are metals malleable?

Layer of positive ions can slide over each other

300

Explain the bonding within magnesium in Group 2.

Metallic Bonding. 

Electrostatic attraction between delocalised electrons and protons in the nucleus.

300

What is Q for 50g of water if its temperature increased from 10 degree C to 20 degree C.

2100J

300

Calculate mass of an object with a density of 2g/cm3 and a volume of 10cm3. 

20g

300

Which basketball team is the person who popularised 6...7 on?

LaMelo played for the Charlotte Hornets (NBA)

400

Explain why graphite can conduct electricity but diamond cannot. What element are they made from and what type of bonding is involved?

Carbon. 

Graphite has delocalised electrons; diamond does not (all carbons are covalently bonded to 4 carbons). 

400
What happens to melting points as you go down Group 1? Explain why.

Decreases. 

More shells as you go down the group, positive nucleus further away from delocalised electrons, less electrostatic attraction, less energy required to break these bonds. 

400

How would you improve the accuracy of using a calorimeter in the school lab?

Use a lid, use an insulator

400

A 16g cube has a side of 2cm. What is its density?

2 g/cm3

400

Which element is the most abundant element in the universe?

A) Helium

B) Carbon

C) Glucose

D) Hydrogen

D) Hydrogen

500

Which of the following compounds have a higher melting point? 

MgO or NaCl. Why?

MgO.

2 electrons need to be transferred for MgO. 

2+ and 2- electrostatic attraction is stronger than 1+ and 1- (for NaCl)

500
Magnesium is a reactive metal. Why would a strip of magnesium react so slowly when added to hydrochloric acid?

Magnesium oxide layer (black layer)

500

Why are calorimeter energy level calculations lower than actual energy present within fuels? Give 2 reasons.

Heat loss to surroundings --> So temperature rise of water is less than it should be.

Some water has evaporated --> mass of water is affected

Mass of fuel burnt can be inaccurate

500

What happens to the density of an object if both its mass and volume are doubled?

Density stays the same

500

Which singer’s full name is Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta?

Lady Gaga
