What are ionic bonds?

Ionic bonds involve the transfer of electrons between atoms, resulting in the formation of positively and negatively charged ions that attract each other. For example, sodium chloride (NaCl), where sodium loses an electron to become positively charged and chlorine gains an electron to become negatively charged.

Study Notes

Periodic Table

  • Metals and non-metals are categorized based on their conductivity; metals conduct electricity and heat well, while non-metals do not.
  • Transition metals are found in the center of the periodic table, forming colorful compounds and having variable oxidation states.
  • Noble gases are in group 18 and are unreactive due to full valence electron shells.
  • Trends in properties of elements are observed across rows (periods) and columns (groups).
  • Periods and groups classify elements based on their properties.

IUPAC Naming and Classification

  • Alkanes are saturated hydrocarbons with single bonds between carbon atoms (e.g., methane, ethane).
  • Alkenes are unsaturated hydrocarbons with at least one double bond between carbon atoms (e.g., ethene).
  • Alcohols are organic compounds containing a hydroxyl group (-OH) (e.g., ethanol).
  • Carboxylic acids are organic acids containing a carboxyl group (-COOH) (e.g., acetic acid).
  • Esters are organic compounds derived from carboxylic acids and alcohols, often with pleasant smells (e.g., ethyl acetate).

The Atmosphere

  • Gas properties are defined and measured by pressure, volume, and temperature.
  • Earth's atmosphere is a mix of gases (e.g., nitrogen, oxygen).
  • Testing and treatment methods analyze air quality and purification techniques are used to purify air.
  • Extraction, emission, and environmental impacts cover processes, pollution release, and effects on the environment.

Matter

  • Matter exists in solid, liquid, and gas forms. Characteristics include density and boiling point.
  • Particle/kinetic theory suggests that matter consists of moving particles.
  • Diffusion is the spreading of particles from high to low concentration.
  • Atoms are made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Electron configurations describe electron distribution within atomic orbitals.
  • Valency refers to an element's combining capacity, usually involving electrons.

Bonding

  • Atoms connect via ionic, covalent, and metallic bonds.
  • Chemical formulas and reactions involve atomic symbols and ratios.
  • Chemical kinetics studies reaction rates and influencing factors.
  • Equilibrium reactions reach a balance between forward and reverse reactions.
  • Energy changes in reactions can be endothermic (absorbing heat) or exothermic (releasing heat).
  • Combustion reactions involve burning fuels to release energy (often releasing carbon dioxide and water).

Types of Chemical Reactions

  • Acids donate protons (H+), and bases accept protons.
  • Neutral solutions have a pH of 7.
  • Acid/base reactions produce water and salts.
  • Redox reactions involve electron transfer (oxidation and reduction).
  • Reactivity series lists metals in order of reactivity, from highest to lowest. Metal extraction retrieves metals from their ore.
  • Corrosion is a metal's gradual deterioration by chemical reactions, typically happening in the environment.

Electrochemical Cells

  • Electrochemical cells transform chemical energy into electrical energy via redox reactions.
