midterms 😭

a substance made of two or more metals, an impure substance that keeps the properties of metal

the chemical bond that holds atoms together in metals

the closeness of two or more measurements to each other

state with lowest energy; most stable state

state with highest energy; least stable state

the transition from the excited state to the ground state

the probability of the location of an electron in or around a nucleus

bond between two nonmetals

particles in an atom with a neutral charge

atoms needing to have 8 electrons in the valence shell

ion that is positively charged

ion that is negatively charged

releases heat, which allows surroundings to rise

absorbs heat, cools the surroundings

two atoms in a molecule share two pairs of electrons

a molecule or covalent charges that had a seperation of charges, occur when electrons are shared unequally

the tendency of an atom or ion to surrender an electron

nucleus effective charge on the outermost electrons is decreased (because the outer electrons are repelled by the core electrons)

positively charged particle in the middle of an atom

the electrons in an atoms outermost electron shell

negatively charged particle bound to an atom or not

how close a measurement is to its true value

bond formed by complete transfer of valence electrons to attain stability; leads to anions
