1. A proton has a charge of

Answer: +1

Electrons are −1; neutrons are 0.

2. Isotopes of an element have the same

Answer: number of protons, different neutrons

Carbon-12 and carbon-14 are isotopes.

3. A group (column) on the periodic table shares

Answer: similar chemical properties

Noble gases are Group 18.

4. A period is a

Answer: row

Period 2 has Li through Ne.

5. An ion is an atom that

Answer: has gained or lost electrons

Na⁺ lost one electron.

6. A covalent bond

Answer: shares electrons

H₂O has covalent bonds.

7. An ionic bond typically forms between

Answer: a metal and a nonmetal

NaCl is ionic.

8. Valence electrons are

Answer: in the outermost shell and drive bonding

The group number often hints at valence count for main groups.

9. One mole contains

Answer: 6.022 × 10²³ particles (Avogadro’s number)

A mole is a counting unit.

10. Molar mass of H₂O is about

Answer: 18 g/mol

2(1) + 16 = 18.

11. Molar mass of CO₂ is about

Answer: 44 g/mol

12 + 32 = 44.

12. Moles =

Answer: mass (g) / molar mass (g/mol)

n = m/M.

13. 36 g of water is how many moles?

Answer: 2 mol

36/18 = 2.

14. At STP, 1 mole of an ideal gas occupies about

Answer: 22.4 L

This is a common US chemistry search.

15. The molar mass of NaCl is about

Answer: 58.5 g/mol

23 + 35.5 ≈ 58.5.

16. A balanced equation’s coefficients tell you

Answer: mole ratios of reactants and products

2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O means 2 mol H₂ per 1 mol O₂.
