Update) Introduction to General, Organic,
and Biochemistry Questions & Answers
{Grade A} 100% Correct (Verified
Solutions)- GCU
when do you use Roman numerals in naming ionic compounds - correct answer for
transition metals, Sc 3+, Al 3+, Zn 2+, Cd 2+, Hg 2+
what are covalent bonds - correct answer atoms held together by sharing electrons
instead of a transfer of electrons... relatively small difference in orbitall energies, such
as between 2 nonmetal atoms
the further the elements are on the periodic table, the ________ the difference in
electro nativity --> ________ ionic character - correct answer greater, greater
forumla of acetate anion - correct answer C2H3O2-
explain electronegativity - correct answer electrons at highest potential energies in
atoms (i.e their valence electrons) will seek lower potential energies
What are ionic compounds - correct answer atoms held together by electrostatic
forces as cations (+) and anions (-)... typically a metal and nonmetal (large difference
in orbital energies

what is bond polarity - correct answer a measure of how equally or unequally the
electrons in any covalent bond are shared
more electronegative atoms (in a bonded pair), more strongly attract shared
electrons
what is the difference of electronegativity is something is covalent - correct answer 0
-- Same energy level
what is the difference in electronegativity for something that is polar covalent -
correct answer greater than 0.4, less than 1.8
what are the steps for naming binary covalent compounds - correct answer 1. more
electronegative atom name ends in -ide
2. greek prefixes are used to designate number of each type of atom in the chemical
formula
3. know the common names
what is greek prefix for 4 - correct answer tetra

what determines the size of an ion - correct answer the quantum number of the
outermost election and by effective nuclear charge experienced by the outermost
electrons
cations are ________ than their parent atoms - correct answer smaller, the outermost
electron is removed and repulsions between electrons are reduced
