What is an ionic bond?

Back

An ionic bond is a type of chemical bond formed through the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions, typically formed when one atom donates an electron to another.

What is the formula for an ionic compound formed from 6 Fe ions and 9 O ions?

Back

Fe₂O₃

Front

How do you determine the type of bond in an oxygen molecule (O₂)?

Back

Use the formula (IE - AE)/2 = # of bonds. For O₂, it results in a double covalent bond.

Front

Which of the following is an example of an ionic compound?

Back

MgCl₂

Front

Which pairs of elements could NOT react to form an ionic compound?

Back

Carbon and Oxygen.

Front

What is the charge of a sodium ion (Na⁺)?

Back

+1

Front

What is the charge of a chloride ion (Cl⁻)?

Back

-1

Front

What is a covalent bond?

Back

A covalent bond is a type of chemical bond where two atoms share one or more pairs of electrons.

Front

What is the difference between ionic and covalent bonds?

Back

Ionic bonds involve the transfer of electrons and the attraction between charged ions, while covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between atoms.

Front

What is the octet rule?

Back

The octet rule states that atoms tend to form compounds in ways that give them eight valence electrons, achieving a stable electron configuration.
