Unit 5 Chemical bonds & Oxidation - TEST Holden

Front

What type of bond is formed between Sodium (Na) and Chlorine (Cl)?

Back

Ionic bond is formed when Sodium (Na) transfers an electron to Chlorine (Cl), resulting in the formation of Na+ and Cl- ions.

Front

What are metallic bonds?

Back

Metallic bonds are the forces of attraction between metal atoms and the surrounding sea of electrons, allowing metals to conduct electricity and heat.

Front

How are ionic bonds formed?

Back

Ionic bonds are formed through the transfer of electrons from one atom to another, resulting in the attraction between positively and negatively charged ions.

Front

What type of bond is formed when two non-metals share electrons?

Back

Covalent bond is formed when two non-metals share electrons to achieve a full outer shell.

Front

What do elements on the left side of the periodic table typically form?

Back

Elements on the left side of the periodic table typically form positive ions (cations) by losing electrons.

Front

What is the difference between ionic and covalent bonds?

Back

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

Front

What is an example of a compound formed by ionic bonding?

Back

Sodium chloride (NaCl) is an example of a compound formed by ionic bonding.

Front

What is an example of a compound formed by covalent bonding?

Back

Water (H2O) is an example of a compound formed by covalent bonding.

Front

What is the role of valence electrons in bonding?

Back

Valence electrons are the outermost electrons of an atom and are involved in forming bonds with other atoms.

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 a molecule with a slight charge.
