81 views3 pages

Document Summary

A compound is composed of 2 or more different atoms in a definite whole- number proportion. Composed of metals and non-metals that attract each other. A measure of tendency of an atom to attract a bonding pair of electrons. Monoatomic cation: formed when a metal loses one or more valence electrons. Monoatomic anion: fromed when a nonmetal gains one or more valence electrons. Polyatomic ion: an ion form when a molecule, rather than a single atom, gains or loses one, two, or three electrons. Ionic compound is identified by ration of cations and anions. Forming steps: determine the charge on the cation, determine the charge on the anion, determine the subscripts. Naming: write the name of the cation followed by the name of the anion. If cation is a transition metal, write its name followed by roman numeral in parentheses. Between atoms consist of shared valence electrons. Molecule: a set of atoms joined by covalent bonds.
