Elements that exist naturally as single unbonded atoms, where all the electrons are paired with opposite spins. Their highest energy level orbitals are full, making them stable and unreactive.
Noble gases
1 of 7
The tendency to acquire a noble gas electron configuration
Octet Rule
2 of 7
A ________ is a substance formed from two or more chemically bonded elements in a fixed ratio, ususally shown by a chemical formula.
Compound
3 of 7
A type of bonding that occurs in compounds consisting of a metal and non-metal. Where electrons are transferred from the metal atom to the non-metal atom to form oppositely charged ions that attract.
Ionic
4 of 7
A type of bonding that occurs in compounds consisting of two non-metals. The electrons are shared between the atoms.
Covalent
5 of 7
A type of bonding that occurs in metals. Electrons are shared between all the atoms.
