  • How many covalent bonds do you expect these elements to make: Si, P, Se
    Si = 4, P = 3, Se = 2
  • Write the electron configuration for copper (Cu)
    1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d9
  • DRAW the lewis dot structure for Strontium, Phosphorus, Xenon
    Sr: 2 lone e- / P: 1 pair and 3 lone e- / Xe: 4 pairs
  • What separates the metals from the nonmetals on the periodic table?
    The metalloids (zigzag line)
  • All elements in the same GROUP have what in common?
    Same number of valence electrons
  • How many valence electrons do halogens have?
    7
  • Choose all that are mixtures: air, saltwater, milk, brass
    All of the above!
  • Explain: If 18 electrons fit on the third ring, why does K have 4 rings?
    10 electrons are in the d orbital, but K has no electrons in d orbitals
  • NAME type of bond and DRAW Lewis structure for MgBr2
    Ionic Bond (metal + nonmetal)
  • DRAW a picture of a metallic bond. Describe the electrons
    Electrons are delocalized from metal cations
  • DRAW the orbital diagram for sulfur
    1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p4
  • NAME type of bond and DRAW Lewis structure for CH2F2
    Covalent Bond (all nonmetals)
  • How many total electrons are present in an ION of iodine?
    54
  • What is WRONG with this electron configuration?
    The 4s orbital is filled before the 3d orbital
  • What is the ionic charge of beryllium?
    Be2+
  • Which types of bonds allow for good conductivity?
    Ionic and metallic (charges move freely)
  • How are ionic bonds formed? BE DESCRIPTIVE
    Metals become cations, nonmetals become anions, attraction between oppositely charged ions
  • What is WRONG with this orbital diagram?
    Every orbital must be filled with one electron before pairing
  • What term best describes the electrons on the outermost energy level?
    Valence electrons
  • The periodic table is 80% metals, nonmetals, or metalloids?
    80% metals!
  • How do you show SHARED electrons in a Lewis structure?
    Solid line between atoms means two shared electrons (covalent bond)
  • CHALLENGE: What is the shorthand configuration for silicon? (noble gas in square brackets)
    [Ne] 3s2 3p2
  • What is the term for a negative ion?
    Anion
  • How many electrons reside in the first, second, and third energy level?
    2, 8, 18...
  • How many electrons are being shared in N2? DRAW the structure
    6 electrons are shared (triple bond)
  • All elements in the same PERIOD have what in common?
    Electrons in the same energy level (for s and p orbitals)
  • DRAW the orbital diagram for the magnesium ion
    Lost two electrons, so should look like neon: 1s2 2s2 2p6
  • Which two types of elements are present in a covalent bond?
    Both nonmetals
