The bond that forms from the sharing of valence electrons
AtomsPrefix 1mono- 2di- 3tri- 4tetra- 5penta- 6hexa- 7hepta- 8octa- 9nona- 10deca-
Name first element Name the second element and add –ide Use prefixes to indicate the number of atoms in the molecule Exception…if there is only one of the first atom, mono is left out!

Electron dot notation is used to shown how electrons are shared Molecules are formed Each molecule has 8 valence electrons Except Hydrogen!
Each line represents the sharing of 2 electrons

Xe,Si, P, S, Cl, Br, and I Sometimes have more than 8 electrons PF 5 Be and B often only have 6 electrons BeCl 3
Draw C 2 H 4 Label all bonds as sigma or pi
A single electron, not paired
As the number of shared electrons increases, bond length decreases Breaking the bond of a short bond is larger than a long bond
What is an ionic bond and how does it differ from a covalent bond? What is the difference between a sigma bond and a pi bond? Predict the bond energy of each of the bonds in CH 2.
