What are electrolytes? Chemically‚ electrolytes are substances that become ions in solution and acquire the capacity to conduct electricity. Electrolytes are present in the human body‚ and the balance of the electrolytes in our bodies is essential for normal function of our cells and our organs. Common electrolytes that are measured by doctors with blood testing include sodium‚ potassium‚ chloride‚ and bicarbonate. The functions and normal range values for these electrolytes are described below

Topic 4 - Bonding 4.1 Ionic bonds 4.1.1 Ionic bond: +ve (cations) and -ve (anions) ions are attracted to each other and form a continuous ionic lattice 4.1.2 Group 1 metals form +1 ions‚ group 2 metals form +2 ions‚ metals in group 3 form +3 ions . Examples : Li+‚ Mg2+‚ Al3+. Greater ease of ionisation Li->Cs is due to the increased electron shielding of the nuclear attraction caused by additional inner shells of electrons. The easier atoms are to ionise‚ the more reactive they

Lewis structure The Lewis structure is used to represent the covalent bonding of a molecule or ion. Covalent bonds are a type of chemical bonding formed by the sharing of electrons in the valence shells of the atoms. Covalent bonds are stronger than the electrostatic interactions of ionic bonds‚ but keep in mind that we are not considering ionic compounds as we go through this chapter. Most bonding is not purely covalent‚ but is polar covalent (unequal sharing) based on electronegativity differences

INORGANIC CHEMISTRY – CLASS XI (ISC) Properties of Group 1 elements [Alkali metals] 1. Due to high reactivity‚ alkali metals do not occur free in nature. Elements of group 1 (or IA) are known as alkali metals because their hydroxides are soluble in water and form strongly alkaline solutions. Alkali metals are stored under kerosene oil because they get tarnished on exposure to air. 2. The general electron configuration of alkali metals is ns1. 3. Alkali metals have largest size and lowest
