#1
Front (Question)

define organic chemistry

Back (Answer)

chemistry of carbon compounds

#2
Front (Question)

define atomic numer

Back (Answer)

protons

#3
Front (Question)

define mass number

Back (Answer)

protons + neutrons

#4
Front (Question)

define isotope

Back (Answer)

same atomic number but differing neutrons

#5
Front (Question)

define valence electrons

Back (Answer)

electrons on the outermost shell

#6
Front (Question)

define the Aufbau principle

Back (Answer)

must fill the lowest energy orbitals first

#7
Front (Question)

define hunds rule

Back (Answer)

when there are two or more orbitals of the same energy, electrons will go into different orbital rather than pairing up in the same orbital

#8
Front (Question)

define ionic bonding

Back (Answer)

• metal and a nonmetal • transferring of electrons • opposite charges attract

#9
Front (Question)

define covalent bonding

Back (Answer)

• two or more nonmetals • electrons are charged

#10
Front (Question)

define non polar covalent

Back (Answer)

electrons are shared equally

#11
Front (Question)

define polar covalent

Back (Answer)

electrons are not shared equally (one molecule is more electronegative)

#17
Front (Question)

define sigma bond

Back (Answer)

a single bond

#18
Front (Question)

define a pi bond

Back (Answer)

• double bond (1 pi bond) • triple bond (2 pi bonds)

#19

Back (Answer)

lewis structures that can be interconverted by moving electrons only

#20
