Unit 3 - Lesson 1

This document provides information about elements, ionic compounds, and covalent compounds: - Elements can be monatomic or diatomic, and are listed in the periodic table. Common diatomic elements include hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen. - Ionic compounds are formed from a transfer of electrons between ions, giving them full charges of positive and negative. Their electron clouds are more one-sided. - Covalent compounds share electrons between nonmetal atoms. Polar covalent compounds have one atom that is partially stronger, while nonpolar covalent compounds have equally strong atoms.

3) Periodic Table of Elements

Atoms & Ions


Atoms
• Single unit of Elements

Ions
• Atoms or Subunits of Ionic Compounds which have gained or lost extra electrons
through chemical reactions. They carry positive or negative charges.
o Ions – single atoms which have extra or less electrons (atoms with a plus or minus)
o Polyatomic Ions – multiple atoms as a singular unit which have extra or less
electrons than in atomic state (subunits of ionic compounds with a plus or minus)

Chem-is-try 1
Ionic Compounds
(Metal + Nonmetal)

• Compounds which combine from ions which have transferred electrons.


• Full Charges of a positive & negative ion.
• Electron clouds tend to be more one sided.

Covalent Compounds
(Nonmetal + Nonmetal)

• Compounds which share electrons to stay together.


• Polar Covalent - One atom is ‘partially stronger’ than the other atom.
• Non-Polar Covalent – Each atom is equally as strong.

Chem-is-try 2
DEFININTIONS:
o Elements – smallest unit of matter that maintains its unique properties
o Atoms – monatomic (single) version of Elements
o Ionic compounds – chemical compound comprised of ions held together by electrostatic
forces (electric charges at rest)
o Covalent compounds – two or more nonmetal atoms (or nonmetal + metalloid atom)
bonded by sharing valence electrons
