  • Electronegativity
    tendency of an atom to attract electrons
  • Electronegativity is influenced by ___
    Valence Electrons
  • if valence electron increases then electronegativity ______
    also increases
  • left to right (electronegativity)

    increases
  • top to bottom (electronegativity)
    decreases
  • Most electronegative element
    Flourine (F)
  • Electron Affinity
    ability of an atom to accept an electron
  • Electron Affinity is closely related to _____

    Electronegativity
  • Left to right (Electron Affinity)
    increases
  • Top to Bottom (Electron Affinity)
    decreases
  • Elements that are stable
    Group 8 elements (elements with 8 valence electrons) [except helium]
  • elements with positive charge

    Cations
  • elements with negative charge

    Anions
  • elements that give electrons
    cations
  • elements that receive electrons
    anions
  • elements with positive charge (groups)
    Group 1, Group 2, Group 3 elements
  • elements with negative charge (groups)
    Group 5, Group 6, Group 7 elements
  • elements with both positive and negative charge
    Group 4 elements
  • Atom should have 8 valence electrons to achieve stability

    Octet Rule
  • Any unstable element will react with another element, gaining, losing or sharing their electrons will make them stable
    Octet Rule
  • Ionization Energy
    The amount of energy required to remove an electron from an atom
  • what influences the Ionization Energy
    the size of an atom
  • left to right (ionization energy)
    increases
  • top to bottom (ionization energy)
    decreases
  • represent valence electrons as dots around the chemical symbol of an atom
    Lewis Electron Dot Structure (LEDS)
  • who proposed LEDS
    Proposed by Gilbert Lewis, an American physical chemist
  • How do LEDS work?
    Electrons are distribution in a circular (clockwise motion) one at a time, with the next set of electrons written as a pair of the first set
  • attractive force that holds atoms of elements together in a compound
    Chemical Bond
  • 2 types of chemical bond
    Ionic bond/compound and Covalent Bond/compound
  • chemical bond characterized by the transfer of electrons from metal to non-metal elements

    Ionic Bond
  • compounds that are composed of only two elements, metal (cation) and non-metal (anion)
    Binary Ionic Compounds
  • compounds that are composed by 3 or more elements and it contains polyatomic ions
    Ternary Ionic Compounds (Polyatomic compounds)
  • Pair of elements for Binary Ionic Compounds

    Metal & nonmetal
  • Bond Formation for Binary Ionic Compounds

    Transfer of electrons using (LEDS)
  • Formation of Ions for Binary Ionic Compounds

    Numerical Value of Charge
  • Chemical Formula for Binary Ionic Compounds

    Shorthand symbols for compounds and shows ratios of atoms, using crisscross method
  • Chemical Name for Binary Ionic Compounds
    1) use unchanged name of the metal element (cation)
    2) use the suffix -ide to the name of the nonmetal element (anion)
  • Transition metals
    metals with more than one atom
  • IUPAC
    stock name of elements for binary compounds with transition metals
  • Naming ternary ionic compounds
    prefixes -per and -hypo are used, -per has more value than -hypo
