• to change

• to make water

• to keep the same properties

What group of elements do not combine since thye are already stable?

• Noble Gases

• Halogens

• Transition Metals

• Alkali metals

What do atoms have to do in order to form compounds and become stable?

• Lose all their electrons

• Get a full outer energy level (full valence electrons)

• Get a full level of protons

• break apart

What is the magic number of valence electrons to become full (except period 1)?

• 6

• 8

• 0

• 2

What are the two ways to get a full outer energy level?

• Gain and share

• lose and share

• transfer (gain/lose) and share

• Transfer (gain/lose) and combine

What type of bond transfers valence electrons?

• Ionic

• Covalent

• Metallic

• Corportate

What type of bond shares valence electrons?

• Ionic

• Covalent

• Metallic

• Corporate

The force that holds atoms together through sharing or transferring is called a ________________.

• Covalent Bond

• Ionic bond

• Chemical Bond

• metallic bond

What is an ion?

• Charged atom due to gaining or losing electrons

• a charged valence electron

• a particle that makes up protons and neutrons

• a particle that is shared in ionic bonding
