Document Summary

Chapter two: be able to name the parts of an atom, understand which molecules are charged, uncharged, and neutral. Lose/gain protons: protons: positively charged particles, neutrons: neutrally charged particles, electrons: negatively charged particles. If you gain electrons, you become more negative. If you gain protons, you become more positive. If you lose protons, you become more negative. If you gain neutrons, you gain atomic mass. If you lose neutrons, you lose atomic mass. Atomic mass = number of protons + number of neutrons: understand the different types of bonds. Understand what happens between the bonding molecules and the relative strength of the bond types: covalent: bond formed by two atoms sharing one or more pairs of electrons. Stronger and far more common than ionic bonds: hydrogen: bond where a hydrogen atom that is covalently bonded to one oxygen or nitrogen atom, is attracted to another oxygen or nitrogen atom. Hydrogen bonds are weak and they do not bind into molecules.
