Chemical Bonding Review

Front

Which type of element typically loses electrons to form a bond?

Back

metal

Front

Which pair of elements will MOST LIKELY form an ionic bond?

Back

magnesium and sulfur

Front

Which statement about covalent bonds is true?

Back

Covalent bonds are usually weaker than ionic bonds because they do not have positive and negative charged elements, instead they share electrons to fill the outer shell.

Front

True or False: The correct chemical name for the formula PCl3 is monophosphorus tetrachloride.

Back

False

Front

What type of bond is located in the pickle to make it glow in an experiment of conductivity of electricity?

Back

ionic bond

Front

Which Lewis Dot Structure is correct for the particular element?

Back

Front

A kitchen scientist heats a pan of salt next to a pan of sugar on a stovetop. What is MOST LIKELY the outcome?

Back

The sugar melts, but the salt does not.

Front

Why is an ionic compound a good conductor of electricity while a covalent compound is a poor conductor?

Back

Ionic compounds form charged particles in solution, and electricity will only flow if charged particles are present.

Front

Why is the resulting compound more stable than the individual atoms in the formation of an ionic chemical bond between lithium and fluorine?

Options:

The shared electron from lithium to fluorine provides each atom with an empty electron shell.

,

The transferred electron from lithium to fluorine provides each atom with a full outer energy level/ electron shell.

,

The transfer of electrons from lithium to fluorine provides each atom with an empty electron shell.

Back

The transferred electron from lithium to fluorine provides each atom with a full outer energy level/ electron shell.
