True-False (A=True, B=False)
1. Atomic size decreases as you go down a vertical column.
2. Ionization energy is the energy necessary to remove valence electrons from atoms.
3. Increasing ionization energy means that generally less energy is required to remove an
electron from the elements going across a row, and it takes progressively more energy to
remove an electron when going down a column.
4. An atom that gives up an electron easily is more likely to take on another electron.
5. Atoms with high ionization energy will be able to hold another electron more easily.
6. Lower ionization energy indicates less attraction for additional electrons, and greater
ionization energy indicates greater desire for electrons.
7. Nonmetals like oxygen have the greatest chance to lo3e electrons.
8. Inert gases have very little desire to gain or to lose electrons.
9. A bond will result when one atom attracts the electrons of another atom.
10. An ionic bond forms when one atom completely removes a valence electron from another
atom.
11. An ionic bond is any bond that is made from ions.
12. Ionic bonds are the least common bonds in the minerals of the earth.
13. Almost all inorganic substances are ionic in nature.
14. Atoms with similar electronegativities form covalent bonds.
15. The amount of ionic and covalent character is determined by the difference in the
electronegativities of the atoms making up the compound.
16. An electron is completely taken away from another atom in a covalent bond.
17. All metals are liquid at room temperature except mercury.
18. Metallic bonds are directed bonds, but ionic and covalent bonds have bonding electrons that
roam.
19. If the difference between the electronegativity of two elements is less than 1.7, the percent
ionic character of the bond is less than 51% percent so the bond is covalent. (Think and
check the periodic table)
