Ionic and Metallic Bonding Chapter 7

Ions Valence electrons are the electrons in the highest occupied energy level of an elements atoms. Valence electrons determine the chemical properties THE HILL OF OXIDATION NUMBERS

Valence Electrons Group # shows the # of Valence Electrons! 1A = 1 Etc.. A bit of a review!

Octet Rule In forming compounds, atoms tend to gain or lose electrons in order to achieve the electron configuration of a noble gas!!!

Octet Rule = atoms tend to gain, lose or share electrons so as to have 8 electrons C would like to N would like to O would like to lose 4 electrons Gain 3 electrons Gain 2 electrons

Key Concept Metals form Cations Nonmetals form Anions

Formation of Cations When an atom loses an electron it produces a positively charged ion, or a cation. .

Electron–Dot Structures for Ions Remove electrons for cations Sodium Atomic number 11 1s22s22p63s1 Na 1 Valence electron Remove electron to form ion + Na Sodium Ion Atomic number 11 1s22s22p63s0 Now has full shell with similar electronic configuration to Neon --Stable noble gas configuration

Formation of Anions The gain of negatively charged electrons by a neutral atom produces an anion.

Electron–Dot Structures for Ions Add electrons for anions Chlorine atomic number 17 1s22s22p63s23p5 7 Valence electrons Cl Add electron to form ion - Chloride ion atomic number 17 1s22s22p63s23p6 Cl 8 Valence electrons Now has full shell with similar electronic configuration to Argon --Stable noble gas configuration

Mg Lewis Dot Structures Mg example 1s22s22p6 3s2 [Ne] 3s2 The valence shell is the outermost shell of electrons of an atom. Mg example 1s22s22p6 3s2 [Ne] 3s2 2 electrons in the valence Shell Use dots to represent Valence Electrons Mg

Electron-Dot Structures Valence electrons represented by dots Electron-dot symbols – Examples: Na•, •Mg•, …

Ionic Bonds Compounds composed of cations and anions are called ionic compounds. Although they are composed of ions, ionic compounds are electrically neutral. The electrostatic forces that hold ions Together in ionic compounds are Called Ionic bonds.

Formula Units Shows the number of atoms in a compound. Ionic compounds = Formula Units

Properties of Ionic Compounds Most are crystalline solids at room temperature. High melting points. Conduct electricity when melted or dissolved in water.

For NaCl the ratio of the ions is 1:1 (one Na+ to one Cl-) A formula unit is the lowest whole-number ratio of ions in an ionic compound. For NaCl the ratio of the ions is 1:1 (one Na+ to one Cl-) What is the formula unit for Magnesium Chloride?

Practice, Practice, Practice Use the criss cross method to determine formulas of the ionic compounds formed when 1. potassium reacts with iodine. 2. Aluminum reacts with oxygen.

Practice, Practice Write the formulas for each compound. Barium chloride Lithium oxide Magnesium oxide Calcium flouride

7.3 Bonding in Metals The valence electrons of metal atoms can be modeled as a sea of electrons. That is, the valence electrons are mobile and can drift freely from one part of the metal to another. Metallic Bonding Animation

Alloys Mixtures composed of two or more elements, at least one of which is a metal. Their properties are often superior to those of their component elements.
