Chemistry I A Final

Front

What type of bond forms between calcium and bromine?

Back

Ionic bond: This type of bond occurs when electrons are transferred from one atom to another, resulting in the formation of charged ions.

Front

What is the solid state of water called?

Back

Ice: Water in its solid state is known as ice, which forms when water freezes at 0°C (32°F).

Front

Which subatomic particle has a positive charge?

Back

Proton: Protons are positively charged particles found in the nucleus of an atom.

Front

What element has the same number of electrons as a N³⁻ ion?

Back

Neon: A N³⁻ ion has gained three electrons, making it isoelectronic with Neon, which has 10 electrons.

Front

How are elements arranged in the modern periodic table?

Back

By atomic number: Elements are organized in order of increasing atomic number, which is the number of protons in the nucleus.

Front

What is electronegativity?

Back

Electronegativity is a measure of an atom's ability to attract and hold onto electrons when forming a bond.

Front

What is a polar covalent bond?

Back

A polar covalent bond is a type of bond where electrons are shared unequally between two atoms, resulting in partial charges.

Front

What is the charge of a neutron?

Back

Neutrons have no charge: They are neutral particles found in the nucleus of an atom.

Front

What is the atomic number of an element?

Back

The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom, which determines the element's identity.

Front

What is a metallic bond?

Back

A metallic bond is a type of bond found in metals where electrons are shared freely among a lattice of metal cations.
