Chemistry Review

Proton positively charged part of an atom found in the nucleus has mass constant in every atom of an element Ex: every atom of oxygen has 8 protons

Neutron part of an atom that has no charge found in the nucleus has mass may be different in different atoms of the same element Ex: an atom of carbon may have 6, 7, or 8 neutrons

Electron negatively charged part of an atom found outside of the nucleus has little to no mass may change in number when an atom interacts with other atoms Ex: sodium (Na) normally has 11 electrons but often loses 1

Ion an atom that has lost or gained 1 or more electrons and now has a charge lose electron = positive ion gain electron = negative ion

Ion

Ion

Isotope atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons does not affect how the atom reacts with other atoms

Ionic Bonds attraction connecting atoms of oppositely charged ions bonds metals to nonmetals

Metals vs. Nonmetals

Ionic Bonds attraction connecting atoms of oppositely charged ions bonds metals to nonmetals one atom gives up 1 or more electrons to another atom

Ionic Bonds

Ionic Bonds attraction connecting atoms of oppositely charged ions bonds metals to nonmetals one atom gives up 1 or more electrons to another atom form crystal lattices – patterned structures of repeating ions

Crystal Lattice

Ionic Substances substances made of oppositely charged ions held together by ionic bonds ex: table salt, rock (road) salt

Covalent Bonds attraction connecting atoms that share 1 or more electrons bonds nonmetals together form molecules – individual groups of atoms

Carbon Dioxide Molecules

Covalent Bonds attraction connecting atoms that share 1 or more electrons bonds nonmetals together form molecules – individual groups of atoms the electrons are not always shared equally

Molecules in Air (nitrogen [N2], oxygen [O2], water [H2O], and carbon dioxide [CO2])

What is the difference between a crystal lattice and a molecule? Crystal Lattice Sodium chloride NaCl Molecule Carbon Dioxide CO2

What is the difference between a crystal lattice and a molecule? In a crystal lattice, ions are interconnected as a part of a repeating pattern. does not have a constant number of atoms however, the ratio is always the same Ex: A TINY piece of salt may have 1,000 sodium atoms and 1,000 chlorine atoms. Another SLIGHTLY BIGGER piece of salt may have 1,500 sodium atoms and 1,500 chlorine atoms. In both pieces, the ratio of sodium atoms to chlorine atoms is 1-to-1.

What is the difference between a crystal lattice and a molecule? In a molecule, each group of atoms is only connected to the other atoms in that molecule. the number of atoms of each element is constant Ex: Carbon dioxide molecules are ALWAYS made of 1 carbon atoms and 2 oxygen atoms.

What is the difference between a crystal lattice and a molecule? Crystal Lattice Sodium chloride NaCl Molecule Carbon Dioxide CO2

Nonpolar Substances substances held together by covalent bonds with equally shared electrons no charged ends of the molecule ex: methane, vegetable oil

Polar Substances substances held together by covalent bonds with unequally shared electrons unequal sharing causes the molecule to have charged ends ex: water, sugar

What is the difference between a polar molecule and a nonpolar molecule?

What is the difference between a polar molecule and a nonpolar molecule? Nonpolar molecules do NOT have charged ends. Polar molecules HAVE charged ends.
