atoms and bonding

PLEASE READ THIS AND HELP ME OUT!
Hey guys, uhh so i dont really like getting help with homework but ther are some questions on my science homework, and i love science, but its about atoms, and i dont really understand atoms so i am asking for some help, alright so this is 9th grade science so hope u guys can help, thanks-
MULTIPLE CHOICE-

Thank you for posting your question to the Ask Me Help Desk.

Instead of giving you all of the answers to your questions I will provide you with links to some notes that can help you to answer them on your own.

Covalent Bonding PowerPoint

Covalent Bonding PDF

Ionic Bonding PowerPoint

Ionic Bonding PDF

Electron Arrangement PowerPoint

Electron Arrangement PDF

Oxidation Numbers PowerPoint

Oxidation Numbers PDF

You will need either the PowerPoint viewer or Adobe Acrobat to view them.
Good luck! Let us know if you need anything else.

or use your textbook and take some logical guesses at the right answers. id be happy to help you through some topics, but its not realistic to be taught an entire chapter in a post.

focus first on the theory of atomic structure.... the protons, neutrons, electrons, how they are "arranged" and their individual charges and what make one element different from another.

dont try to do the bonding questions until you get this. then look at the section on bonding and how atoms can fill their valence shell by bonding or by gaining or losing electrons.

if you have some specific questions you can post them.... but again, teaching an entire chapter of bonding theory here is unrealistic, and we dont provide answers to homework. well happily help you through specific questions.
