2013 Nazarbayev University Introduction While many thousands of substances are known‚ they can be classified into a few simple categories based on type of bonding that exists among the atoms in the substance. Bonds are chemical forces that hold atoms together to form molecules or compounds. These categories are ionic‚ molecular and metallic substances. In ionic compounds valence electrons are transferred from one atom to another‚ resulting in formation of ions of opposite charge. Metals will lose

covalent bonds and ionic bonds. Covalent bonds are bonds in which one or more pairs of electrons are shared by two atoms. Covalent bonds‚ in which the sharing of the electron pair is unequal‚ with the electrons spending more time around the more non-metallic atom‚ are called polar covalent bonds. In such a bond there is a charge separation with one atom being slightly more positive and the other more negative‚ i.e.‚ the bond will produce a dipole moment. On the other hand‚ Ionic bonds are bonds in which

-Hydrogen If both B^5 and Al^13 are s^2p^1‚s why is Boron a nonmetallic metalloid and Al a metallic metalloid? -Boron has fewer total electrons so it is less inclined to give them away. The Carbon family elements radically change in their individuals properties. How do they change from C to Pb? -It goes from non-metal to metalloid to metals

In the present article‚ the authors investigate the use of flame spheroidized hydroxyapatite particulates in a PEEK polymer for usage as bone analogue materials. Metallic implants have been used for orthopedic implants in the past‚ but polymeric implants have been explored due to stress-shielding issues associated with metallic implants. Wolf’s Law states that if bone is not subjected to mechanical stimuli‚ then it will be absorbed (Uhthoff and Dubuc‚ 1971). Therefore‚ it is important to develop

Subject Content Most of the objectives specified in this section relate to Knowledge with Understanding‚ although some indication has been given as to where the skills of Handling Information and Solving Problems may be developed. Teachers are reminded that‚ in the written papers‚ 40% of the marks are allocated to these higher ’thinking’ skills. In almost every section‚ students should therefore be given practice at dealing with unfamiliar situations so that these higher thinking skills can be developed

“Warren–Girder” structure. This is done using 2 processes namely Superplastic forming and Diffusion bonding. The manufacture process starts with 3 sheets of forged titanium. A material called stop-off is printed onto 2 of the sheets which will stop them from joining together in the diffusion bonding process. The 3 sheets are then sandwiched together‚ and placed in a Furnace where the diffusion bonding takes place. A Flat sheet is produced and all layers are joined except in areas where stop-off has

Gold is a soft metal that is largely unreactive. Gold jewellery can lie underground for thousands of years and emerge shiny after that lengthy exposure to air‚ water‚ and other chemicals in the environment. Gold does dissolve in some solvents as indicated below and does react with halogens. The most common oxidation states of gold are Au(I) and Au(III) but there are a few examples of Au(V) (various anions [AuF6]- and [Au2F10]). The Au(III) ion has the d8configuration which gives rise to many square

Current‚ Voltage and Power * Electricity is the flow of electric charge. We can describe the flow of electric charge in several ways. These include the quantities Current‚ Voltage and Power. Current * Current (I) is the rate of flow of Charge Carriers‚ such as electrons. Current is usually thought of as moving in the direction of positive charge‚ so from the positive power supply to the negative. However‚ since in metals it is electrons that carry electric charge‚ the actually flow is opposite
