Unit 3- Chemical Bonding and Nomenclature FINALReview

Front

What is a metallic bond?

Back

A metallic bond is a type of chemical bond that occurs between atoms in a metal that involves free floating valence electrons.

Front

What is the general formula unit when an element from Group 1 reacts with an element from Group 16?

Back

The general formula unit is X₂Y.

Front

Which pair of atoms will form an ionic bond?

Back

Ca and Br will combine to form an ionic bond.

Front

What is the correct formula for Dicarbon Pentachloride?

Back

The correct formula is C₂Cl₅.

Front

What properties indicate the presence of metallic bonding in a material?

Back

Malleability, ductility, and electrical conductivity indicate metallic bonding.

Front

What is an ionic bond?

Back

An ionic bond is a type of chemical bond formed through the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions.

Front

What is a covalent bond?

Back

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

Front

What is the significance of valence electrons in bonding?

Back

Valence electrons are the outermost electrons that determine how an atom can bond with others.

Front

What is the octet rule?

Back

The octet rule states that atoms tend to gain, lose, or share electrons to achieve a full outer shell of eight electrons.

Front

What is the difference between ionic and covalent bonds?

Back

Ionic bonds involve the transfer of electrons, while covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons.
