1

Compound

two or more elements whose atoms are chemically bonded

New cards
2

Chemical bond

Force that holds atoms together

New cards
3

Octet rule

8 valence electrons on the outermost energy level

New cards
4

Covalent Bond

bond where valence electrons are shared between atoms

New cards
5

Polar covalent bond

bond where one atom has a slightly stronger pool on the electrons than the other (Occurs between atoms of different elements)

New cards
6

Non-polar covalent bond

bond where both atoms equally share the electrons (occurs between atoms of the same element)

New cards
7

Ionic bond

bond where one atom loses electrons and the other gains electrons

New cards
8

Cation

atom that loses the electrons, has a positive charge

New cards
9

Anion

atom that gains the electrons, has a negative charge

New cards
10

Oxidation number

number of electrons that need to be lost or gained to achieve a full outer shell of valence electrons

New cards
11

Law of Conservation of Mass

in a chemical reaction mass is either created nor destroyed but transformed into new products

New cards
12

Chemical reaction

reaction where reactants are changed into new substance

New cards
13

Synthesis

to reactants react to become one product

New cards
14

Single replacement

an element and compound react to form a new compound in element

New cards
15

Double replacement

two compounds react to form two new compounds

New cards
16

Decomposition

a compound reacts to form two or more products

New cards
17

Combustion

a hydrocarbon and oxygen gas react to form water and carbon dioxide

New cards
18

to become more stable

Why do atoms bond?

New cards
19

covalent and ionic

What are two types of bonds?

New cards

21

share

Atoms in a covalent bond….. electrons

New cards
22

What are the properties of covalent compounds?

New cards
23

when ionic bonds are formed one atom loses electrons and one gained electrons forming ions

How are ions formed?

New cards
24

Metals

What type of elements are typically cations?

27

oppositely charged

Ionic bonds are formed between… ions

New cards
28

Transferred

In ionic bonds, electrons are ….. between atoms

New cards
29

Antione Lavoisier

Who is the father of modern-day chemistry?

New cards
30

color change, formation of gas, temperature change, production of ador, formation of a precipitate (solid) production of light

How do you know a chemical reaction has occurred?

New cards
31

Synthesis, decomposition, single replacement, double replacement, and combustion

What are 5 types of reactions?
