ionic bonding

Salts

Ionic compound: a metal with a non metal that bond because of opposite attraction. Neutral

Acids

H+

Bases

OH-

Cations

Positive ion, will always be metals. More protons than electrons result in cation.

Anions

Negative ion, will always be non-metal. More electrons than protons means anion.

Ions

Charged atom that changes electrons

Isotopes

Same element, different number of neutrons, changes neutrons

Transition metals

D-sub level (3-12), have more than one charge

Valence electrons

Outer shell electrons

Monoatomic

One-atom ion

Polyatomic

Multiple-atom ion (charged compound)

First main property of salts

Hard, brittle from its crystal lattice structure

Second main property of salts

Soluble (dissolve), able to dissociate (allows for electricity conduction)

Third main property of salts

electrolytes are conductive (allows for the flow of charges to move through)

Fourth main property of salts

High melting point because of strong bonds

Crystal lattice structure

Made with opposite attraction
