Chemical Bonding Why? To achieve stability (happiness) Lower energy level 8 electrons –react so as to achieve the valence level configuration of NEAREST inert gas How? 1. Ionic Bond: ◦Transfer of electrons from Metal (low IE/EN) to non-metal (High IE/EN) ◦Larger difference in IE/EN 2. Covalent Bond: between NON-metals b/w items with similar IE/EN (small difference) Due to SHARING of electrons
2. Covalent Bond: between NON-metals b/w items with similar IE/EN (small difference) Due to SHARING of electrons * In a given covalent bond each element contributes 1 electron to the pair shared* *BOND FORMATION: due to an overlap of atomic orbitals on the valence level * Identical Bonds: identical in every way, strength, length etc

Bonding cont’d Sigma Bonds: the first bond formed between two atoms - it will use hybrid orbitals Pi Bond ( π bond): the second/third bond formed between two atoms PURE ‘P’ for PI bonds

So..... Why do we care??? Knowing # of bonds and # of lone pairs allows us to determine shape of a molecule and then in term helps to determine polarity!! Woot woot
Remember hyperlink on title VSEPR Theory Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion Theory Electron pairs around the atom place themselves AS FAR APART as possible (Bonding or nonbonding lone pairs) Determines geometry of a molecule based on Lewis structures Lone pairs on the central atom have basically the same affect as a bonded pair of e -

Polarity – Bonds and Molecules Bond Types: 1. Ionic: transfer of electrons 2. Covalent: equal sharing of e - pair 3. Polar Covalent: unequal sharing of e - pair, creates dipoles (slight charges), determined by Δ EN of the elements

Intermolecular Forces Two types of forces 1. Intramolecular: within a molecule (ionic/covalent bonds) 2. Intermolecular: between molecules
