Naming Chemical Compounds Lesson

Multiple Choice

In metallic bonds electrons are:

• shared

• move around the nuclei randomly

• transferred

Multiple Choice

Malleability and ductility are characteristics of compounds with

• covalent bonds

• metallic bonds

• ionic bonds

• alloy bonds

Multiple Choice

Which of the following lists of elements contain only metals?

• Li, Al, Te

• Ni, Pb, H

• Na, Os, Ga

• Ca, Zn, I

Multiple Choice

Why do all bonds form?

• so the number of protons equals the number of electrons

• so an atom can become unstable

• to fill the outermost energy level

Multiple Choice

How are ionic bonds formed?

• Transfer of electrons
• Sharing of electrons

Multiple Choice

Ionic bonds are between...

• Metal and Non-metal
• Non-metal and Non-metal
• Metal and Metal

Multiple Choice

Formula for barium sulfide

• B₂S₃

• BaS

• Ba₂S

• BaS₂

Multiple Choice

What two types of atoms make a covalent bond?

• 2 Nonmetals
• 1 Nonmetal and 1 Metal
• 2 Metals
• 2 Noble Gases

Multiple Choice

Diatomic elements are defined as IDENTICAL elements that bond with each other (i.e. Oxygen with Oxygen).  What type of bond should they form?

• Ionic
• Polar Covalent
• Nonpolar Covalent
• Van der Waals force

Steps to creating a compound

• Identify if it is ionic, transitional ionic, or covalent

• Identify the charge (O has 6 valence electrons it needs 2 more to be stable so it's charge is -2)

• balance the charges

Multiple Choice

what is the correct chemical formula for Ca and I

• Ca₂I

• CaI₂

• CaI

• Ca₂I₂
