Chemical Symbols
Are one or two-letter abbreviations for the names of an element.
ONLY THE FIRST LETTER IS CAPITALIZED.
If the symbol has a second letter, it is lowercase SO THAT WE KNOW WHEN A DIFFERENT ELEMENT IS INDICATED.
CO Co
CARBON MONOXIDE
Cobalt
The symbol of Carbon is C, the symbol of sulfur S. However the symbol of Cesium is Cs not CS. Why not?

Origin of some of the elements name
Most of the chemical symbols use letters from the current name, some are derived from their ancient name.
Other elements are named after planets, mythological figures, colors, minerals, geographical location and famous people.

Metals appear to the left of the dark ziz-zag line on the periodic table. Most metals are solid at room temperature.
Properties of metals

Metals have luster. This means they are shiny

Ductile
metals can be drawn into wire.
COPPER

Malleable
metals can be hammered into sheets
ALUMINUM

Metals have a high melting point. They are also very dense.

Conductors
Metals are good conductors of electricity and heat

A chemical property of metal is its reaction with water and oxygen. This results in corrosion and rust.

•Shiny
•Solids at room T° (except Hg)
•Luster
•Good conductors of heat and electricity
•Malleable (sheet)
•Ductile (wires)
•High melting points
•High density

Nonmetals occur to the right of the dark zig-zag on the periodic table. Although Hydrogen is in family 1, it is also a nonmetal. Many nonmetals are gases at room temperature.
Properties of Non metals

Nonmetals do not have luster; they are dull.
Properties of Non-metals

Brittle
Nonmetals are brittle so they break easily. This means nonmetals ARE NOT ductile or malleable.

Nonmetals have low density.

They also have a low melting point. This is why they are poor conductors of heat and electricity.

Properties of nonmetals
Nonmetals:
Lacks of luster
Low melting point
Low density
Bad conductors of heat or electricity

Metalloids can be found clustered around the dark zig-zag line that separates metals and nonmetals.
Properties of Metalloids

Metalloids (metal- like) have properties of both metals and nonmetals.

Metalloids are solids that can be shiny or dull.

They conduct electricity and heat better than nonmetals but not as well as metals.

Metalloids are malleable and ductile

Properties of metals, nonmetals and metalloids
Metalloids:
Possess characteristics of both metals and nonmetals
Semiconductors

What is a COMPOUND?
oA substance in which two or more different elements are CHEMICALLY bonded together.

Types of Compounds
•A compound with 2 different elements
•NaCl – Sodium Chloride
Binary
•A compound with 3 different elements
•HClO Hypochlorous Acid

Polarity
•Describes how electrons are shared between atoms .
•Electrons are not always shared equally between two bonding atoms.
•One atom might exert more of a force on the electron than the other, electronegativity.
•The unequal sharing of electrons within a bond leads to the formation of polarity.

Polarity of bonds
Nonpolar covalent bond: Bond between atoms with identical or very similar electronegativities.

Polarity of bonds
Polar covalent bond: Electrons are shared unequally.

1. An ionic compound is a chemical compound in which ions are held together by the electrostatic force between oppositely charged ions.
2. An ionic compound is form by a positively charge ion called a cation, which is always a metal and a negatively charged ion called a anion which is always a nonmetal or a polyatomic ion when we have 2 or more nonmetals together with a charge.

3. The main difference between ionic and covalent compounds is that ionic compounds is composed of a metal bonded to a nonmetal while a covalent compound is a nonmetal bonded to a nonmetal.
4. In ionic compounds there is a complete transference of electrons.
5. In covalent compounds electrons are being shared.
