Chapter 5 test this week

Chapter 4 and 5 -You Should Know
For this test you should be familiar with the following concepts and tasks:
1.     Differentiate between atoms, ions, and molecules
      Knowledge of the three subatomic particles, their properties and their location within the atom.
      Define and give examples: ionic bonding – (metal and non-metal), covalent bonding –(non-metal and non-metal) –explain how different ions form bonds
      Draw and interpret Bohr models for first 20 elements on the periodic table
      Identify valence electrons using the periodic table
      Draw and interpret Lewis diagrams showing bonds for ionic compounds (eg NaCl. MgO) and covalent compounds (eg H2O, CH4)
      Distinguish between lone pairs and bonding pairs of electrons and molecules
2.     Classify substances as acids, bases, or salts, based on their characteristics, name and formula
      Identify acids and bases using indicators (chart in the provincial package)
      Explain the significance of the pH scale
      Differentiate between acids, bases and salts with respect to chemical formulas and properties
      Use the periodic table and a list of ions (including polyatomic ions) to name and write chemical formulas for common ionic compounds
      Convert names to formulas and formulas to names for covalent compounds
3.     Distinguish between organic and inorganic compounds
      Define organic compounds and inorganic compounds
      Distinguish between organic and inorganic compounds based on their chemical structure
      Recognize a compound as organic or inorganic from its name, from its formula or from a diagram or model
4.     Analyze chemical reactions
      Define and explain the law of conservation of mass

      Write and balance (using lowest whole number coefficients) chemical equations from formulae, word equations or descriptions
