Oxygen has 6 valence electrons.

How many covalent bonds will oxygen form, in order to have a full octet?

Multiple Choice

Oxygen is a diatomic element which means in nature, it is found in two's. (O₂) Oxygen shares two pairs of electrons to make sure each atom completes the octet rule. This creates a...

• single bond

• double bond

• triple bond

Multiple Choice

N-3 is formed. What is the correct equation for this ion formation?

• $$N^{+3}\ \longrightarrow N^{-3}\ +\ 3\ e$$

• $$N\ +3e\ \longrightarrow N^{-3}$$

• $$N\ +\ 2\ e\ \longrightarrow N^{-2}\$$

• $$N^{+3}\ \ +\ 3\ e\longrightarrow N^{-3}\$$

Which properties are all characteristics of ionic compounds?

• solids with high melting and boiling points

• soft solids which are highly malleable

• when solid, the ions are held in place so the compounds cannot conduct electricity

• conduct electricity when dissolved or molten

Multiple Choice

The experiment shown is used to test the electrical conductivity of potassium iodide crystals. However the lamp does not light up. Distilled water is added to the beaker and the lamp lights up. Why is this so?

• Metal ions are free to move when potassium iodide melts

• Metal ions are free to move when potassium reacts with water

• Electrons are free to move in the solution when potassium iodide dissolves

• Oppositely charged ions are free to move in the solution when potassium iodide dissolves
