Front

Define ionic bond.

Back

A chemical bond formed between two ions with opposite charges.

Front

What is the difference between intensive and extensive properties?

Back

Intensive properties do not depend on the amount of substance (e.g., color, boiling point), while extensive properties do (e.g., mass, volume).

Front

A positively charged ion.

Front

What is an anion?

Back

A negatively charged ion.

Front

How do you determine the charge of a cation in an ionic compound?
