Experimental Design
After studying about recycling, members of John’s biology class investigated the effect of various recycled products on plant growth.
John’s lab group compared the effect of different aged grass compost on bean plants. Because decomposition is necessary for release
of nutrients, the group hypothesized that older grass compost would produce taller bean plants. Three flats of bean plants (25
plants/flat) were grown for five days. The plants were then fertilized as follows: (a) Flat A: 450 g of 3 month old compost, (b) Flat B:
450 g of 6 month old compost, and (c) Flat C: 0 g of compost. The plants received the same amount of sunlight and water each day.
At the end of 30 days the group recorded the height of the plants (cm).

Nonmetals gain electrons, therefore become negative called anions.

Valence Electrons

31.
Ionic Bonds
Ionic bonds are formed when electrons are transferred between a metal and a nonmetal.
32.
Covalent Bonds
Covalent bonds are formed when electrons are shared between two nonmetals.
33.
How do I tell if the Compound is Ionic or Covalent or Both?
Check to see what the compound is made up of:
A metal and a nonmetal…It’s IONIC!
2 nonmetals…It’s COVALENT!
A polyatomic ion and another element…It’s BOTH! (The polyatomic ion is the covalent part, the whole compound
will be ionic.)
Polarity
Covalent bonds are when electrons are shared between two nonmetals. If the electrons are shared equally, it is a nonpolar
covalent bond. If the electrons are shared unequally (meaning they are pulled closer to the more electronegative element), it
is a polar covalent bond.
34.
To determine whether a bond is polar, nonpolar, or ionic, you must use a table of electronegativities. (This will be given to
you on the SOL if you are supposed to use it.) When you subtract the two values, if the difference is…
…between 0 and 0.4, the bond is nonpolar, meaning the electrons are shared equally between the two atoms
…between 0.4 and 1.7, the bond is polar, meaning the more electronegative element is pulling harder on the
electrons
…greater than 1.7, the bond is ionic, meaning the more electronegative element pulled so hard on the electrons, that
they came off one atom and were transferred to the other atom.

formula)
Molecular Formula – the actual formula of the compound (the way it exists naturally)
To calculate E.F.:

2. Change grams to moles
3. Divide by the lowest number of moles
4. The numbers you get are the subscripts in your formula.
To calculate M.F.:
Divide the molar mass (given) by the empirical mass. Multiply that number by the E.F.
