Chemical bonds are what make up the world. In bonds‚ elements are held together and form compounds that may have new physical and chemical properties. There are two main kinds of bonds‚ they ionic and covalent. In bonding the goal of the atoms involved is to reach a level of stability with less energy. In order to reach the epitome of stability‚ as in the case of noble gases‚ an atom strives to complete its outer shell. Either losing or gaining electrons may do this‚ which concludes in an ionic bond

CHEMICAL WEATHERING Chemical weathering is a process of alteration of rocks of the Earth’s crust. is a chemical decomposition process. is brought out by atmospheric gases and moisture. End product has a different chemical composition and poorer physical constitution. The process: Chemical change in the nature of rock takes place in the presence of moisture containing many active gases such as CO2‚ N2‚ H2‚ and O2. Rocks are made up of minerals. All the minerals in a rock are not in

bonds formed between two ions by the transfer of electrons. The speed at which a chemical reaction proceeds is known as the rate of reaction. The rate of almost every reaction can be increased or decreased due to different factor. Scientists have identified five factors that affect the rate of reaction. The five factors are temperature‚ concentration of the reactants‚ surface area‚ agitation (mixing)‚ and catalyst (chemical helpers). The collision theory states that the rate of a reaction is directly

Chemicals of Life • With the exception of water‚ virtually all chemicals of life are CARBON based • Molecules that contain Carbon are considered organic with some exceptions such as CO2 • Carbon has 4 valence electrons so it is oriented in a tetrahedron shape Sketch→ • Carbon can form up to 4 covalent bonds and can form long chains‚ rings‚ and branched chain molecules • Carbon acts as the backbone of biological molecules • Molecules that only contain carbon and hydrogen are known as hydrocarbons→

Chemical Bonding Chemical compounds are formed by the joining of two or more atoms. A stable compound occurs when the total energy of the combination has lower energy than the separated atoms. The bound state implies a net attractive force between the atoms ... a chemical bond. The two extreme cases of chemical bonds are: Covalent bond: bond in which one or more pairs of electrons are shared by two atoms. Ionic bond: bond in which one or more electrons from one atom are removed and attached to

Chemical Reactions & Equations CHEMICAL REACTION : In a reaction when the original state of the particle changes and it cannot be reversed by simple physical means‚ this type of reaction is known as chemical reaction. Example :- Fermentation of grapes‚ burning of wood etc. In this reaction we have seen that after burning of wood‚ coal is formed and we cannot make wood from coal. PHYSICAL REACTION : In a reaction when original state of the particle can be recovered by any means then this type of
