low electron affinityb. one that has low ionization energy and another that has
high electron affinityc. one that has high ionization energy and another that
has low electron affinityd. one that has high ionization energy and another that
has high electron affinity8. Which of the following is a property of an ionic compound?

9. Which factor is used to determine if a bond is considered ionic? a. Size c. Charge b. Electronegativity d. Number of atoms bound
10. Which one of the following is NOT true about metallic bonding?a. It gives rise to excellent electrical conductivity.b. Electrons are free to move throughout the structurec. The strength of metallic bonds increases down a group.d. The strength of metallic bonding affects the boiling
point of metals.11. Why do atoms share electrons in covalent bonds?

13. How does calcium obey the octet rule when reacting to form compounds?a. It gains electrons. b. It gives up electrons. c. Calcium does not obey the octet rule. d. It does not change its number of electrons.
14. A scientist is interested in the study of atmosphere. He finds out that the most abundant gases are diatomic like nitrogen. He wanted to know the other gases that are also diatomic because he wanted to sort their varied characteristics. However, his scope of study is limited only to the ones that are joined by a single covalent bond. If you are his colleague, what can you suggest him to focus at so that he can easily spot the gases he needs for his research? a. halogens only b. hydrogen and the halogens only c. halogens and members of the oxygen group only d. hydrogen, halogens, and members of the oxygen group
15. You draw the Lewis structure of NO3− ion while your co-
worker is also doing the same. You find out that both your illustrations are right. How would you explain this? a. NO3− ion has 3 resonance structures. b. NO3− ion has 4 resonance structures.c. NO3
− ion is an exemption to the octet rule.d. NO3− ion is not a compound so different Lewis
structures may fit.16. A chemist performs the same tests on two white crystalline
solids, A and B. The results are shown in the table below. SOLID A SOLID B
