80
New cards

what ionic compounds

a neutral substance made of positively and negatively charged ions held together by strong electrostatic force and They usually form when a metal reacts with a nonmetal. [1]

  • Cations and anions: The metal atom loses electrons to become a positive ion (cation). The nonmetal atom gains those electrons to become a negative ion (anion). [1]


81
New cards

what are molecular compounds

a chemical substance formed when nonmetal atoms share electrons to create discrete, electrically neutral molecules. [1, 2, 3]

Key Characteristics

  • Covalent bonds: Atoms hold together by sharing pairs of electrons rather than transferring them.

  • Composition: They typically consist of two or more different nonmetal elements (such as hydrogen, carbon, oxygen, or nitrogen).


82
New cards

what are polyatomic ions and which are they

charged groups of two or more atoms joined together by covalent bonds that act as a single unit and include OH-, CH-,CO32-,SO42-,SO32-,NO3-, NO2-,NH4+

83
New cards

what is the first step in naming ionic compounds AbBa

write down the name of the element A first

84
New cards

what is the second step in naming ionic compounds AbBa

The anion (Bb- is usually a non-metal is then named by taking the first part of the elements name and adding “ide”

85
New cards

How do you name polyatomic ions

they have traditional names and do not carry a ide at the end like sulfate or ion at the end.

86
New cards

how do you name transition metals with different oxidation numbers in different compounds

to name these compounds for the ion with the smallest charge add “ous” to the end of the name for the largest charge add “ic” to the end of the name.

87
New cards

what is a more reliable way to how do you name transition metals with different oxidation numbers in different compounds

is to name metals ions using roman numerals as follows Fe2+ —> Iron(II)

88
New cards

what is relative atomic mass and how do you find it

the weighted average mass of an element's atoms compared to one-twelfth of the mass of a carbon-12 atom and Multiply the mass number of each isotope by its percentage abundance.

  • Add all of those values together.

  • Divide the total sum by 100


89
New cards

ex of relative atomic mass

Example: Chlorine

  • Isotope 1: Mass 35 with 75% abundance

  • Isotope 2: Mass 37 with 25% abundance

  • Calculation: \((35 \times 75) + (37 \times 25) = 2625 + 925 = 3550\)

  • Divide by 100: \(3550 / 100 = 35.5\) [1, 2]

90
New cards

what is relative molecular mass and how do you find it

the total sum of the relative atomic masses of all the atoms in a single molecule of an element or compound andHow to Find Relative Molecular Mass

To find the relative molecular mass, add up the atomic masses of all the individual atoms in the chemical formula. [1]

  1. Find the chemical formula of the molecule.

  2. Look up the relative atomic mass (\(A_{r}\)) for each element using a periodic table.

  3. Multiply each element's atomic mass by the number of atoms of that element in the formula.

  4. Add all the values together to get the final total


91
New cards

ex of relative molecular mass

Step-by-Step Example: Water h20

  • Elements present: Hydrogen and Oxygen

  • Atomic masses from the periodic table:

    • Hydrogen = \(1\)

    • Oxygen = \(16

  • Number of atoms:

    • {H} = 2\) atoms

    • t{O} = 1\) atom [1]

  • Calculation:

    • Atomic mass of H} \times 2) +Atomic mass of O} \times 1)\)

    • \((1 \times 2) + (16 \times 1) = 2 + 16 = 18\) [1]

New cards

what is stoichiometry

the calculation of the quantities of reactants and products involved in a chemical reaction

93
New cards

what are non electroylytes

A nonelectrolyte is a substance that does not conduct an electric current when it dissolves in water or melts into a liquid. [1, 2]

Key Characteristics

  • No Ions Formed: These substances stay as neutral molecules in liquid. They do not split into charged particles called ions.

  • Covalent Bonds: Most nonelectrolytes are molecular compounds held together by covalent bonds instead of ionic bonds.

  • Zero Conductivity: Because there are no free-moving charges in the liquid, electricity cannot flow through the solution. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]


94
New cards

what is molar concentration and how do you find it


  • Molarity (\(M\)) = moles of solute/ liters of solution (M)= (n/V)

Steps to Find Molar Concentration

  • Find the moles of solute (n): If you start with grams, divide the mass of the solute by its molar mass from the periodic table: moles = mass (g)/ molar mass (g/mol)

  • Find the volume of the solution (V): Measure the total volume in liters (L). If your volume is in milliliters (mL), divide by 1,000 to convert it to liters.

  • Divide the values: Divide the number of moles of solute by the volume of the solution in liters to get the concentration in mol/L or M.


95
New cards

what is the typical unit for molarity

moles per liter= moles of solute/ liters of solution

96
New cards

what is a precipitation reaction and what is an example?

A precipitation reaction is a chemical change in a liquid solution where two soluble salts mix and form an insoluble solid, which is called a precipitate

97
New cards

what is a redox reaction and what is an example

A redox reaction (oxidation-reduction reaction) is a chemical process where electrons are transferred between two substances

98
New cards

what is an acid base reaction and what is an example?

H+ to form water and a salt. This type of reaction is also known as a neutralization reaction.

  • Acid: A substance that releases hydrogen ions (\(H^{+}\)) or donates a proton.

  • Base: A substance that accepts hydrogen ions (\(H^{+}\)) or releases hydroxide ions (\(OH^{-}\)


99
New cards

what are ionic equations?

100
New cards

what are electrolytes?

An electrolyte in chemistry is a substance that produces mobile ions when dissolved in water or melted, allowing the liquid to conduct electricity.

How Electrolytes Work

When an ionic compound or polar covalent substance dissolves, it breaks apart into charged particles called ions.

  • Cations: Positively charged ions that move toward the negative electrode (cathode).

  • Anions: Negatively charged ions that move toward the positive electrode (anode).

  • Conductivity: Electric current flows through the solution via the physical movement of these ions, not through moving electrons
