905578036 | valence electrons | the outer most electrons on the outermost shell | 18 | |
905578037 | full valence shells | are inert/ or chemically unreactive | 19 | |
905578038 | chemical bonds | an attraction between two atoms from sharing of outer shell electrons | 20 | |
905578039 | covalent bond | the sharing of a pair of valence electrons by 2 atoms | 21 | |
905578040 | molecule | two or more atoms held together by covalent bonds | 22 | |
905578041 | ionic bonds | a chemical bond resulting from the attraction between oppositely charged ions | 23 | |
905578042 | ion | is a atom or molecule that has gained or lost one or more electrons | 24 | |
905578043 | hydrogen bond | non covalent attraction between hydrogen and an electronegative atom | 25 | |
905578044 | chemical reactions | making and breaking of chemical bonds, leading to changes in the composition of matter, example the reaction between hydrogen and oxygen molecules that form water | 26 | |
905578045 | cohesion | hydrogen bonds that hold the substance together | 27 | |
905578046 | adhesion | the clinging of one substance to another | 28 | |

905578055 | pH of 14 | very basic | 37 | |
905578056 | buffer | something that will change the pH of a solution | 38 | |
905578057 | is a trace element an essential element? | yes, because an organism requires trace elements, even if just in a small amount | 39 | |
905578058 | The reactivity of an atom rises from? | the existence of unpaired electrons in the valence shell | 40 |
