Valence electrons : electrons at outer-most energy level. Effective nuclear charge: net positive charge experienced by an electron in a multi-electron atom. Atomic radius: distance from the nucleus to the boundary of the surrounding cloud of electrons. Ionic radius: measure of the size of an atom\'s ion. Ionization Energy: nergy needed to remove electrons from an atom. Electron Affinity: the energy change when an electron is added to the neutral atom to form a negative ion. Electronegativity: tendency of an atom or a functional group to attract electrons. Oxidation number (or Oxidation state): hypothetical charge that an atom would have if all bonds to atoms of different elements were 100% ionic. Oxidation: Lossing electrons Reductio: Gaining electrons Oxidizing agent: Element being Reduced Reducing agent: Element being Oxidized Covalent Bond: chemical bonding by shaing of electrons (Non-metal with Non-metal). Ionic Bond: chemical bonding of non-metal and metal Compounds: combinations of two or more elements Octet rule: maximum of 8 electrons (in the valence shell) can be added during a reaction. Electrolytes: substance that can conduct electricity. Hydration: chemical reaction when adding water. Solubility: property of a solid, liquid, or gaseous chemical substance mix with one other to form a homogeneous solution. Concentration: abundance of a constituent divided by the total volume of a mixture. Dilute: lowering the concentration of a chemical. Concentrated solution: solution in which much of the water has been removed. Brønsted acid: proton donor. Brønsted base: proton acceptor. Monoprotic acids: donate one proton per molecule during the process of dissociation. Diprotic acids: donate two protons per molecule during the process of dissociation. Triprotic acids: donate three protons per molecule during the process of dissociation. pH: measure of acidity and basic of a solution. Strong acid: ionizes completely in an aqueous solution by losing one proton. Weak acids: acid that dissociates incompletely. Strong base: accept hydrogen ions or more generally or donate electron pairs. Weak base: does not ionize fully in an aqueous solution Supersaturated solution: solute > solvent Saturated solution: solute = solvent unsaturated solution: solute < solvent Solution Valence electrons : electrons at outer-most energy level. Effective nuclear charge: net positive charge experienced by an electron in a multi-electron atom. Atomic radius: distance from the nucleus to the boundary of the surrounding cloud of electrons. Ionic radius: measure of the size of an atom\'s ion. Ionization Energy: nergy needed to remove electrons from an atom. Electron Affinity: the energy change when an electron is added to the neutral atom to form a negative ion. Electronegativity: tendency of an atom or a functional group to attract electrons. Oxidation number (or Oxidation state): hypothetical charge that an atom would have if all bonds to atoms of different elements were 10.
