Segment D: Bonding Review
Segment D: Bonding Review
In this segment, we review Unit 4, "Chemical Bonds." The unit covered the importance of evidence-based science and looked at both intra-molecular bonds that hold atoms together and intermolecular bonds, which exist between one molecule and another.
Science
Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information about the use of the modern atomic theory and periodic law to explain the characteristics of atoms and elements.
Evaluate merits and limitations of different models of the atom in relation to relative size, charge, and position of protons, neutrons, and electrons in the atom.
Construct an argument to support the claim that the proton (and not the neutron or electron) defines the element's identity.
Construct an explanation based on scientific evidence of the production of elements heavier than hydrogen by nuclear fusion.
Construct an explanation that relates the relative abundance of isotopes of a particular element to the atomic mass of the element.
Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information to explain how atoms bond to form stable compounds.
Analyze and interpret data to predict properties of ionic and covalent compounds.
Develop and use models to predict formulas for stable, binary ionic compounds based on balance of charges.
Use the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) nomenclature for translating between chemical names and chemical formulas.
