- 3. an expression that defines the number of atoms of each element in one molecule of a compound
- 5. type of linkage formed from the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions in a chemical compound
- 6. a representation of the valence electrons of an atom that uses dots around the symbol of the element
- 9. a covalent linkage in which two atoms share three pairs of electrons
- 10. consists of molecules whose formula represents the actual number of atoms bonded together in the molecule
- 13. a symbolic representation of its chemical composition.
- 16. a group of atoms bonded together, representing the smallest fundamental unit of a chemical compound that can take part in a chemical reaction.
- 17. the energy required to separate an isolated molecule (i.e. in gas phase), after the cleavage of a bond, into two fragments (atoms or radicals) at infinite distance
- 18. the formation of a chemical bond between two or more atoms, molecules or ions to give rise to a chemical compound
- 19. compounds made up of ions that form charged particles when an atom (or group of atoms) gains or loses electrons
- 20. identify the location of chemical bonds between the atoms of a molecule
Down
- 1. when atoms with different electronegativities share electrons in a covalent bond.
- 2. a covalent bond between two atoms involving four bonding electrons as opposed to two in a single bond.
- 4. a chemical bond in which one pair of electrons is shared between two atoms.
- 7. a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electrons to form electron pairs between atoms.
- 8. a type of chemical bond that is formed when electrons are shared equally between two atoms
- 11. the absolute grouping of atoms or ions represented by the empirical formula of a compound, either ionic or covalent.
- 12. an ion that contains more than one atom
- 14. a way of describing delocalized electrons within certain molecules or polyatomic ions where the bonding cannot be expressed by a single Lewis formula
- 15. a very simplified representation of the valence shell electrons in a molecule
