CPC MP4 Quarterly Assessment

Metals tend to 

• gain electrons
• lose electrons

Nonmetals tend to 

• gain electrons
• lose electrons

If I gain electrons I become

• Positive because I've added to my atom
• negative because I've added electrons
• same because i'm balanced
• equal because now I have electrons

When metals bond with non-metals they form what type of bonds

• covalent
• ionic
• cooperative
• lewis

When a nonmetal gains electrons, it becomes this type of ion.

• Anion
• Cation

When a metal loses electrons, it becomes this type of ion.

• anion
• cation

When two or more different elements are chemically combined.

• Mixture

• Element

• Solution

• Compound

When naming ionic compounds you always write the name of the positive element  _______ .

• first
• second
• with "ide"
• with a prefix

If my charge becomes 2+ what does that say about me?

• I am stealing 2 electrons
• I am losing 2 electrons
• I am in period 2
• I have an atomic # of 2

In most cases, when naming you change the ending of the second element to ________.

• -ate.
• -ite.
• -ide.
• -ine.
