New cards

Metals

  • Hard solids

  • Hugh electrical conductivity

  • High melt/boiling points

2
New cards

How do we apply thomsons model to compounds?

Electrical forces are involved in holding the particles that make up pure substances

3
New cards

Charge of neutral atoms

have equal amount of both positive and negative charge

4
New cards

Charged pieces of tape interaction with other objects

When two objects of diff substances come into contact, some electrons move from one substance to the other.

The top tape becomes + charged bc electrons are transferred to the bottom tape.

5
New cards

Two ways materials conduct electricity

If electrons move around freely, or ions can move around freely

6
New cards

Non metals

  • Softer

  • Colorful elements

  • Lower melt/boiling levels than most metals

  • Poor conduction of heat/electricty

7
New cards

Ionic compounds

Compounds composed of ions, charged particles that form when an atom loses or gains electrons. They are NOT molecules.

8
New cards

covalent/molecular compounds

Compounds form when elements share electrons in a covalent bond to form molecules.

Molecular compounds are electrically neutral.

9
New cards

How does neutral atom become a positive ion?

A neutral atom must lose electrons to become a positive ion (cation)

<p>A neutral atom must <u>lose</u> electrons to become a positive ion (cation) </p>
10
New cards

How does a neutral atom become a negative ion?

A neutral atom must gain electrons to become a negative ion (anion)

<p>A neutral atom must <u>gain</u> electrons to become a negative ion (anion) </p>
11
New cards

Why do some things conduct electricity while others do not?

if electrons can move around freely and if ions can move around freely then electricity can be conducted.

12
New cards

Electrolyte

Conducts electricity when dissolved in water

13
New cards

What are cathode rays?

Negatively charged electrons (smaller than atoms)

14
New cards

Ionic

Metals + non metals

15
New cards

Covalent

Non metals only

16
New cards

Metallic

Metals only

New cards

In the sticky tape activity, we stuck two uncharged pieces of tape together and then pulled them apart. Explain how you knew the two pieces of tape had different charges after pulling them apart.

Support your answer with your observations and data from the activity!

When the two pieces of tape were palled apart, electrons from the top tape transferred onto the bottom tape, which gained more electrons. Thus, the top tape had a positive charge while the bottom tape had a negative charge. Then, we made both the top tape and bottom tape come in contact with neutral objects such as paper, aluminum, and fur. One notable difference was that the fur was attracted to the top tape, but was repelled by the bottom tape. Therefore, the two pieces of tape had different charges when pulled apart

New cards

Explain how atoms become ions using thomsons plum pudding model

For an atom to become an ion, it has to gain or lose electrons. This can be similar to plucking out or adding ā€œplumsā€ (electrons) to the positive charged sphere.

21
New cards

How do you predict the conductivity of a solution based on the composition of the compound dissolved in water (idk if this will be on the quiz)

The more ions and the more easily electrons are able to move around freely, the high the electrical conductivity.

22
New cards

Explain how an object becomes polarized (electrically charged)

separation of positive and negative charges.

Rubbing (transfer) , induction (repel/attract), and contact with a charged object

23
New cards

Diffrientiate between elements, compounds, and mixtures

Elements - pure substances of one atom

Compounds - chemically combining of two or more elements

Mixtures - physically combing two or more substances

24
New cards

ions

An atom that carries a positive or negative charge as a result of losing or gaining electrons.

25
New cards

Copper ions have a positive charge because

copper metal formed on the negative electrode

26
New cards

Anion

Negatively charged ion. Must lose electrons to become a neutral atom. Attracted to anode.

27
New cards

Cation

Positively charged ion. Attracted to cathode.

28
New cards

Polarization

The Disortion of negatively charged electrons by a positively charged electron. This effect caused electrons in neutral objects to changed direction temporarily, even though the overall object remains neutral.

29
New cards

Anode

Electrode that’s Usually on the positive side

30
New cards

Cathode

An electrode that’s usually on the negative side.

31
New cards

Compare differences and similarities of elements, mixtures, and compounds

(This was on last quiz I think, tests target 4.2)
