1
Element
An element is a substance made up of only one type of atom.
New cards
2
Compound
A compound is made up of at least two different elements chemically bonded together. This means compounds are made up of more than one type of atom.

Sulfate Ion
Sulfate: SO4 2-
New cards
9
Ionic Compound
Ionic compounds are made up of positive and negative ions, held together by electrostatic attraction.
New cards
10
Sodium Chloride Formula
Sodium chloride has the formula NaCl as the charges on the ions must cancel to give a compound with no overall charge.
New cards
11
Aluminium Oxide Formula
For the ionic compound to have no overall charge, two aluminium ions must bond with three oxygen ions, giving the formula Al2O3.
New cards
12
Zinc Nitrate Formula
For the ionic compound to have no overall charge, two nitrate ions must bond with the zinc ion. This gives the formula Zn(NO3)2.
New cards
13
Oxidation Number
A number assigned to an atom or an ion which represents how many electrons have been lost or gained by the atom.
New cards
14
Oxidation Number of an Element
Zero.
New cards
15
Overall Oxidation Number of CaCO3
Zero. The oxidation numbers of a neutral compound add up to zero.
New cards
16
Overall Oxidation Number of HCO3-
-1. The overall oxidation number of a charged compound is simple as it is the charge shown on the molecule.
New cards
17
Oxidation States of Hydrogen and Oxygen
Hydrogen: +1 (except in metal hydrides where it is -1). Oxygen: -2 (except in peroxides and F2O where it is -1).
New cards
18
Common Oxidation States of Halogens and Group One Metals
Halogens: -1. Group one metals: +1.
New cards
19
Oxidation Number of Sulfur in Na2SO4
Sulfur must have an oxidation number of +6 to balance the charges.
New cards
20
Oxidation Number of Chromium in K2Cr2O7
Chromium must have an oxidation number of +6 to balance the charges.
New cards
21
State Symbols in Chemical Equations
(g) - gas; (aq) - aqueous; (l) - liquid; (s) - solid.
New cards
22
Ionic Equation
Ionic equations only show the reacting ions and can be written for any reaction involving ions in solution.
New cards
23
Ionic Equation for HNO3 and NaOH
H+(aq) + OH-(aq) → H2O(l)
New cards
24
Ionic Equation for AgNO3 and NaCl
Ag+(aq) + Cl-(aq) → AgCl(s)
