How to predict the chemical formula of an ionic compound?

  1. Determine the charges of the ions involved.
  2. Use the criss-cross method: swap the magnitudes of the charges to determine the subscripts.
  3. Simplify the subscripts if possible.

Why Noble Gasses Don't Bond

Noble gasses already have a full outer shell of electrons, meaning they are stable and don't need to gain or lose electrons.

Study Notes

Kinetic Particle Theory

  • Describes Brownian Motion, where all particles are constantly and randomly moving.
  • All matter is composed of tiny randomly moving particles.
  • Particle movement is determined by temperature, which is a measurement of kinetic energy related to heat.
  • Higher heat means higher kinetic energy and faster average molecular speed.
  • Lower heat means lower kinetic energy and slower average molecular speed.
  • Energy is neither created nor destroyed, but changes form.
  • Energy is the capacity to do work.

States of Matter

  • Solids: Compact, fixed arrangement of atoms with strong attraction forces, low kinetic energy, incompressible and has a definite volume and shape.
  • Liquids: Moderately loose arrangement of atoms, moderate attraction forces, low kinetic energy, flows/slides and has a constant volume with an indefinite shape.
  • Gases: Widely spaced arrangement of atoms with a weak attraction force, high kinetic energy, compressible and has an indefinite shape and volume.

Phase Changes

  • Evaporation (liquid to gas): High heat energy and temperature needed to change state.
  • Condensation (gas to liquid): Low heat and temperature for a phase change to occur
  • Melting (solid to liquid): Temperature increase at or above 0°C for melting.
  • Freezing (liquid to solid): Temperature decreases below 0°C to freeze.
  • Sublimation (solid to gas): Bypasses the liquid phase, high heat needed.
  • Deposition (gas to solid): Bypasses the liquid phase, low heat needed.

Diffusion

  • Movement of molecules from higher to lower concentration along a concentration gradient.
  • It is a passive transport process, doesn't require energy.

Atomic Structure and Periodic Table

  • Atoms are the basic building blocks of elements.
  • Molecules are formed from one or more atoms bonded together.
  • Atomic structure includes protons, neutrons, and electrons.
  • Protons have a positive charge.
  • Neutrons have no charge.
  • Electrons have a negative charge.
  • Atomic number is the number of protons.
  • Atomic mass is the sum of protons and neutrons.
  • Isotopes are different forms of the same element with varying numbers of neutrons.

Ions

  • Ions are atoms or molecules with a net electric charge due to gaining or losing electrons.
  • Cations are positively charged ions.
  • Anions are negatively charged ions.

Bonds

  • Ionic bonds: Transfer of electrons between atoms, creating oppositely charged ions that attract each other.
  • Covalent bonds: Sharing of electrons between atoms to achieve stability.
  • Octet rule: Atoms tend to gain, lose, or share electrons to achieve a full outer electron shell (eight valence electrons).

Periodic Table

  • Elements are organized by increasing atomic number.
  • Elements in the same column (group) share similar chemical properties due to similar valence electron configurations.
  • Elements in the same row (period) have increasing numbers of electron shells.
