3 sp2 orbitals; trigonal planar; sigma bond - ANS-Bonding in Graphite

A heavier nucleus is broken a part to form lighter, more stable nuclei energy. - ANS-Fission

A negatively charged ion, formed when non-metals gain electrons, change usually corresponds
to gain of electrons to next filled shell. - ANS-Anion

A positively charged ion, formed when metals lose electrons w/ low electronegativity, always
requires an input of energy. - ANS-Cation

Ability of an element to attract electrons to another electron. - ANS-Electronegativity

Ability of an element to attract electrons to itself in a bond. - ANS-Electronegativity

Are between a metal and non-metal. - ANS-Ionic Bonds -

Assume all centers of electrons density repel each other and that there is a minimum energy
arrangement that the atom will naturally take up. - ANS-Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion
