Chemistry Chapter 2 Review
Matter: Anything that takes up space and has mass.
Element vs. Compound? You need to memorize the following: 92 elements are naturally occuring (in nature) You need to memorize the following: O, C, H, N, Ca, P, K, S, Na, Cl, Mg (C, H, O, and N = Life)
Properties of an Atom
Terms to know: Neutron: Protons: Electrons: Atomic Number: Atomic Mass: Isotope:
Isotope
Electrons
Electron Energy
Valence Electrons # of electrons in the outermost shell, responsible for chemical bonding. Noble Gases?
Types of Bonds Ionic Covalent Polar vs Non-polar Single, double, triple Hydrogen Metallic
Interactions of Matter In order to achieve stability, an atom will either gain, lose, or share e-s, which will change the physical and chemical characteristics Ionic Bonds – transfer of e-s
Interactions of Matter Covalent Bonds – sharing e-s; can be single, double, or triple bonds
Interactions of Matter Polar Covalent Bonds – unequal sharing of e-s
Interactions of Matter H-bonds and Van der Waals – interaction between slight charges
