⩥ How does a binary ionic compound form. Answer: A metal loses
electrons (forming a cation) and donates them to a nonmetal which gains
electrons informs in anion, the compound is held together by the force of
electrostatic attraction
⩥ Covalent bond. Answer: Attractive force between the nuclei of a
molecule's atoms and pairs of electrons between atoms; a mutual
attraction of atoms for a shared pair of electrons
⩥ Between which types of elements do covalent bonds form?. Answer:
A covalent bond usually forms between two nonmetals
⩥ Isoelectric. Answer: Term used to describe tow elements having the
same electronic configuration; the only difference is the number of
protons
⩥ Describe the trends of electronegativity. Answer: Decreases going
down the table, increases from left to right
, ⩥ Pure covalent bond. Answer: A bond in which electrons are shared
equally between atoms
⩥ Polar covalent bond. Answer: A bond in which electrons are not
equally shared between atoms
⩥ Pure covalent electronegativity difference. Answer: less than 0.4
⩥ Polar covalent electronegativity difference. Answer: 0.4 - 1.8
⩥ Ionic electronegativity difference. Answer: greater than 1.8
⩥ Two nonmetals are generally ______. If they are directly beside each
other on the table, they are probably ______. If they are far away from
each other, they are probably ______.. Answer: covalent; pure covalent;
polar covalent
⩥ Metals and nonmetals are generally.... Answer: ionic
⩥ Ionic compounds containing only monatomic ions nomenclature.
Answer: 1) name of the cation (metal)
2) name of the anion (nonmetal).... change ending to "-ide"
