WORKSHEET NO-3
NAME: GRADE: 9
SUBJECT: CHEMISTRY TOPIC: Chemical Bonding
1 Diamond and silicon(IV) oxide both have giant structures.
Which statements are correct?
1 Both substances are compounds.
2 There are strong covalent bonds in diamond.
3 Silicon(IV) oxide is bonded ionically.
4 Both substances have very high melting points.

A 1 and 2 B 2 and 3 C 2 and 4 D 3 and 4

2 Caesium, Cs, is an element in Group I of the Periodic Table.


When caesium reacts it forms a positive ion, Cs+.
How is a caesium ion formed?

A A caesium atom gains a proton.


B A caesium atom gains an electron.
C A caesium atom loses an electron.
D A caesium atom shares an electron.

3 The structure of copper is described as a lattice of positive ions in a ‘sea of electrons’.


Which statements are correct?
1 Copper has a high melting point because of the strong electrostatic attraction
between the positive ions and the ‘sea of electrons’.
2 Copper is malleable because the layers of atoms in the lattice can slide over each
other.
3 Copper atoms can be oxidised to form copper ions by losing electrons.

A 1, 2 and 3 B 1 and 2 only C 1 and 3 only D 2 and 3 only
