Bonds Bonds hold molecules together Different types of bonds give different properties Bond: force of attraction between protons (nucleus) of one atom and electrons of another Takes two electrons & two nuclei Bonds hold molecules together Different types of bonds give different properties Bond: force of attraction between protons (nucleus) of one atom and electrons of another Takes two electrons & two nuclei
Bond Formation Electron orbitals overlap and hold two electrons in place Bonds form when attraction > repulsion Electron orbitals overlap and hold two electrons in place Bonds form when attraction > repulsion
Making Bonds Bond formation is SPONTANEOUS : System goes from high to low energy, by releasing energy Creates stability Bond formation is SPONTANEOUS : System goes from high to low energy, by releasing energy Creates stability
Breaking Bonds Bond breaking is NOT SPONTANEOUS System goes from low to high energy, needs to get that energy from somewhere else Bond breaking is NOT SPONTANEOUS System goes from low to high energy, needs to get that energy from somewhere else
Bonds and Energy Levels Kinetic and potential energies both decrease when bonds are formed Kinetic and potential energies both increase when bonds are broken KE is your temperature, PE reflects that In comparisons, more energy lost means a more stable compound Because energy out = energy in Kinetic and potential energies both decrease when bonds are formed Kinetic and potential energies both increase when bonds are broken KE is your temperature, PE reflects that In comparisons, more energy lost means a more stable compound Because energy out = energy in
Which kind of energy is stored in a chemical bond? 1) potential 2) kinetic 3) activation 4) ionization As energy is released during the formation of a bond, the stability of the chemical system generally: 1) decreases 2) Increases 3) remains the same Which kind of energy is stored in a chemical bond? 1) potential 2) kinetic 3) activation 4) ionization As energy is released during the formation of a bond, the stability of the chemical system generally: 1) decreases 2) Increases 3) remains the same
Valence Electrons Valence electrons are in the outermost energy level of an atom, so higher energy Elements in same period have same # valence electrons, so behave similarly Valence involved in bonding, others stay back and relax Valence electrons are in the outermost energy level of an atom, so higher energy Elements in same period have same # valence electrons, so behave similarly Valence involved in bonding, others stay back and relax
Major League Valence Electrons steady, reliablea little less predictable wild, unpredictable
The Octet Rule Noble gases are inert (inactive), very stable 8 valence electrons, complete octet 8 is most electrons that can be held in valence shell All atoms want 8, and work to get there by interacting with others Bonding is sharing or giving/receiving electrons Stability found in complete octet Noble gases are inert (inactive), very stable 8 valence electrons, complete octet 8 is most electrons that can be held in valence shell All atoms want 8, and work to get there by interacting with others Bonding is sharing or giving/receiving electrons Stability found in complete octet
Exceptions to octet rule: H & He: only 2 electrons B & Al: will try for 8 electrons, but fine with 6 N: easy-going, can have less or more than 8 F: really electronegative, can take more than 8e-, bonds with nonmetal in Period 3 or lower Somewhat reactive noble gases (with F) Exceptions to octet rule: H & He: only 2 electrons B & Al: will try for 8 electrons, but fine with 6 N: easy-going, can have less or more than 8 F: really electronegative, can take more than 8e-, bonds with nonmetal in Period 3 or lower Somewhat reactive noble gases (with F)

Important Clarification About Lewis Structures When placing electrons dots around a chemical symbol, the first two always go on top BUT those are simply the first 2 of however many valence electrons are present They are counted with the valence electrons, not separate If an atom has 1 VE, only draw 1 dot, not 2 on top and then 1 When placing electrons dots around a chemical symbol, the first two always go on top BUT those are simply the first 2 of however many valence electrons are present They are counted with the valence electrons, not separate If an atom has 1 VE, only draw 1 dot, not 2 on top and then 1

Types of Bonds: Covalent Bonding
Covalent bonds Covalent bonds: atoms share electrons to achieve a stable octet 2 nonmetals, same or different elements Remember: 2 electrons per bond 8 electrons (octet) = up to 4 bonds can be formed (with exceptions) Single/double/triple bonds Extra electrons as lone pairs Covalent bonds: atoms share electrons to achieve a stable octet 2 nonmetals, same or different elements Remember: 2 electrons per bond 8 electrons (octet) = up to 4 bonds can be formed (with exceptions) Single/double/triple bonds Extra electrons as lone pairs
Know That Lines Are Bonds! 7 single bonds 1 double bond & 2 single bonds 10 single bonds Looks confusing, but same basic principle
- Reminder - Electronegativity is a measure of the attraction of a nucleus for a bonded electron; how much an atom “wants” electrons

Ions Formed when individual atoms lose or gain electrons to be like the closest noble gas Metals low EN, nonmetals high EN Metals lose valence e- (to the nonmetal) and become cations (+) Nonmetals gain valence e- (from the metal) and become anions (-) Oxidation numbers represent charges formed, and the closest noble gas configuration Formed when individual atoms lose or gain electrons to be like the closest noble gas Metals low EN, nonmetals high EN Metals lose valence e- (to the nonmetal) and become cations (+) Nonmetals gain valence e- (from the metal) and become anions (-) Oxidation numbers represent charges formed, and the closest noble gas configuration Electrons (-) charged, so Negative charge = gain electrons Positive charge = loss electrons
Reminder Ionization energy: the amount of energy needed to remove the most loosely bound electron from a neutral atom -Sort of the inverse of electronegativity Metals have low IE, want to lose their electrons, don’t put up a fight Nonmetals have high IE, want all the electrons they can get, hold on for dear life Ionization energy: the amount of energy needed to remove the most loosely bound electron from a neutral atom -Sort of the inverse of electronegativity Metals have low IE, want to lose their electrons, don’t put up a fight Nonmetals have high IE, want all the electrons they can get, hold on for dear life
