what are the two types of acid naming and name commen acids in each
what is the difference between ionic and molecular compounds
ionic- metal and nonmetal
molecular- two non-metals
how do you name ionic compounds
what is a cations and an anion (hint: occurs in ionic compounds)
cation- positively charged ion (occurs when metals lose electrons)
anion- negatively charged ion (occurs when non-metals gain electrons)
what is a multivalent ion
when metals form stable ionic compounds with non-metals by donating different amounts of electrons
what makes something molecular
when its a pure substance formed from two or more non-metals, they share valence electrons through covalent bonding
what is a molecule
particle in which atoms are joined by covalent bonds
what is a covalent bond
bond resulting from sharing valence electrons sharing between non-metals
what is a diatomic molecule
consisting of only two atoms of the same or different element (HOFBrINCl)
what is a non-polar/polar covalent bond
non-polar: bonding shared equally with no charges
polar: bonding shared unequally with physical charges
ionic: complete transfer of valence electrons, full charges
what are the prefixes for covalents bonds
1- mono
2- di
3- tri
4- tetra
5- penta
6- hexa
7- hepta
8- octa
9- nona
10- deca
what is the law of conservation of mass
the law that the total mass of reactants equals the total mass of products
what are the 9 chemical reactions??
what is an acid?
chemical that INCREASES the concentration/amount of hydrogen ions in water
what is a base?
chemical that DECREASES the concentration of H+ in water by causing OH- and H+ to form water molecules
are acids and bases ionic or molecular compounds?
ionic compounds
what are the four ways of chemical naming?
explain the PH scale
what is the neutralization reaction formula
acid+ base –> water + ionic compounds
(techncially also double displacement)
explain all 9 chemical reactions
what is combustion
what is complete combustion
A combustion reaction of hydrocarbons that uses all available fuel and produced only CO2, H2O, and energy; occurs under excess oxygen.
what is incomplete combustion
A combustion reaction of hydrocarbons that may produce CO, C, CO2, H2O, and energy; occurs under limited oxygen.
what is corrosion
-Corrosion is the slow and heatless breakdown of metals as it reacts with chemicals in the environment
- affected by air, water, electrolytes, acidity, mechanical stress
- can change physical properties
- some are benifitial (hard oxide coatings on aluminum), some are destructive (flaky rust on iron)
- can be slowed with oil, paint, or zinc
