Bonding and structure

    Cards (71)

    • metals form positive ions
    • non metals form negative ions
    • metals are malleable, conductive(heat and electricity) and shiny
    • non metals are dull, brittle, have LMaBPs, lower densities and are poor conductors
    • transition metals can form coloured compounds
    • transition metals can form different ions
    • TM are often used as catalysts
    • what is the reactivity series: Pottasium, Sodium, Calcium, Magnesium, Aluminium, Carbon, Zinc, Iron, Tin, Lead, Hydrogen, Copper, Silver, Gold, platinum
    • the nunomic for the reactivity series
      please stop calling me a careless zebra instead learn how copper saved gold proplery
    • Group 1 metals are low density, weak and have LMP
    • The group 1 metals are very reactive especially with group 7 metals
    • group 1 metals are especially reactive with water, oxygen
    • the MP and BP dcreases in Group 1
    • group 1 metals have increasing reactivity because they have an increased distance that weakens the attractive force from the positive nucleus
    • G1 always form ionic compounds. Which use Electrostatic forces between a positive metal ion and a negative non metal
    • metal + oxygen -> metal oxide
    • metal + water -> metal hydroxide + hydrogen
    • metal + acid -> salt + hydogen
    • metal oxide + acid -> salt + water
    • metal carbonate + acid -> salt + water + carbondioxide
    • lithium + oxygen -> Lithium oxide
    • sodium + oxygen -> sodium oxide or sodium peroxide
    • potassium + oxygen -> potassium super oxide or potassium peroxide
    • the reactivity of the halogens decreases as you go down the period
      because they have a weaker force of attraction to an electron to complete its outer shell because it has a larger radius
    • chlorine is a green gas
    • bromine is a reddy brown volatile liquid
    • iodine is a dark grey solid which produces purple poisonous gas
    • iodine is an antiseptic, used to prepare people for surgery
    • all the halogen gasses are poisonous
    • halogens are diatomic
      because they share their outer shell electron with each other, called a covalent bond
    • a strong covalent bond by the diatomic halogen gase
    • the melting and boiling points increase, going down the period
    • when a halogen reacts with a metal, it becomes a halide ion
      fluorine -> fluoride
      chlorine -> chloride
      bromine -> bromide
      iodine -> iodide
    • so sodium + chlorine -> sodium chlorIDE
      magnesium + bromine -> magnesium chlorIDE
    • the boiling point of Noble gasses increases as you go down the period
    • the halogens arent flammable
    • Ionic bonding is where the metal shares its outer shell electron with a non metal. This forms a positive metal ion and a negative non metal ion.
      this is then the same electronic structure as a Nobel gas in group 0
    • in ionic bonding the metals are formed with electrostatic forces which are strong and cause the ionic bond between two elements of opposite charges
    • you always need a square bracket around a dot and cross diagram with the charge on the outside
    • an ionic compound forms regular lattices structures, ions are held together by strong electrostatic forces, and represented by a ball and stick diagram
