1Mm = 1,000,000m

1dm = 0.1m

1cm = 0.01m

1mm = 0.001m

1µm = 0.000001m

Term
Naming Ionic Compounds
Definition

metal + nonmetal + -ide

Potassium Oxide

Term
Naming Covelent Compounds
Definition

nonmetal + nonmetal + -ide with prefixes depending on subscript

 

H2O = dihydrogen monoxide

Term
Naming with transition metals
Definition

transition metal + nonmetal + -ide

find charge of transition metal and place in parenthesis after it

Definition
exchange reaction that makes an insoluable precipitate
Term
Molecular equation
Definition
Full equation without ion breakdown
Term
Ionic equation
Definition
full equation with ionic breakdown
Term
Net ionic equation
Definition

Definition

(just to look over)

Term
Oxydation-Reduction (Redox) reactions
Definition

always a transfer in electrons, atoms that gain charge are oxydized and atoms that lose charge are reduced

(charges of free atoms and polyatomics are 0)

Term
Combustion
Definition
energy released, always an O in the reactant
Term

Definition
Pressure is inversely proportional to Volume
Term
Charles' law
Definition
Volume is proportional to temperature
Term
Avogadro's law
Definition
Volume is proportional to mols
Term

Definition

top right is highest

[image]

Term
electron affinity
Definition

top right is highest

[image]

Term

Definition

uneven sharing of electrons

decided by electonegativity

top right is most polar

[image]

Term
electronegativity
Definition
ability of atom to attract electron pairs toward itself in a covelent bond
Term
Formal charge
Definition

charge of each element in molecule found with lewis structure

 

added to find charge of molecule

Term
VESPR theory
Definition

Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion Theory

want to be as far away as possible in arrangement

Term
Polarity with symmetry
Definition

symmetrical (and no lone pairs) makes it nonpolar

any lone pairs makes it polar
