Unit 29 - The Atom and Bonding
Learning Outcomes:
- Examine a variety of substances and classify these as elements or compounds (using the Periodic Table as a reference), metals or non-metals (OC4)
- Describe the structure of the atom, state the location, relative charge, and atomic mass of the sub-atomic particles, and define atomic number and isotope (OC39)
- Draw the Bohr structure of the first 20 elements (OC40)
- Understand how atoms of elements combine to form compounds (OC41)
- Recall that ionic bonding is an attraction between positive and negative ions; describe the bonding in NaCl and MgO as examples (OC42)
- State what a molecule is, understand that covalent bonds involve the sharing of pairs of electrons, and describe the bonding in H2, O2, H2O, CH4 as examples of covalent bonding (OC43)
- Investigate the ability of ionic and covalent substances to conduct electricity (OC44)
