Bonding, Structure and the Properties of Matter flashcards
Every deck we have for Bonding, Structure and the Properties of Matter, part of AQA GCSE Chemistry. 146 questions written against the published specification, free to study with no account. Each deck schedules its own reviews, so cards you find hard come back sooner than ones you have already got right.
Ionic Bonding and Ionic Compounds
28 cardsHow metals and non-metals transfer electrons to form ions, working out the charges from the periodic table, dot and cross diagrams, and why giant ionic lattices behave as they do.
Covalent Bonding and Simple Molecules
26 cardsShared pairs of electrons, drawing simple molecules, why substances made of small molecules melt at low temperatures, and the difference between bonds and intermolecular forces.
Metallic Bonding, Metals and Alloys
22 cardsDelocalised electrons and giant metallic structures, why metals conduct and can be shaped, and why alloys are harder than pure metals.
States of Matter and Changing State
22 cardsThe particle model, melting and boiling in terms of forces between particles, predicting state from melting and boiling points, and the limitations of the model.
Giant Covalent Structures, Graphite and Graphene
26 cardsDiamond, graphite, graphene, fullerenes and silicon dioxide: how their structures explain their very different properties, plus polymers.
Nanoparticles and Bulk Properties
22 cardsThe sizes of coarse, fine and nanoparticles, how surface area to volume ratio changes with size, and the uses and possible risks of nanotechnology. Chemistry only content.
