Forms of Chemical Bonds There are 3 forms of bonding atoms:There are 3 forms of bonding atoms: Ionic—complete transfer of 1 or more electrons from one atom to another (one loses, the other gains)Ionic—complete transfer of 1 or more electrons from one atom to another (one loses, the other gains) Covalent—some electrons shared between atomsCovalent—some electrons shared between atoms Metallic – holds atoms of a metal togetherMetallic – holds atoms of a metal together Most bonds are somewhere in between ionic and covalent.

Naming Molecular Compounds CH 4 methane BCl 3 boron trichloride CO 2 Carbon dioxide All are formed from two or more nonmetals. Ionic compounds generally involve a metal and nonmetal (NaCl)

Molecular (Covalent) Nomenclature for two nonmetals Prefix System (binary compounds) 1.Less electronegative atom comes first. 2.Add prefixes to indicate # of atoms. Omit mono- prefix on the FIRST element. Mono- is OPTIONAL on the SECOND element (in this class, it’s NOT optional!). 3.Change the ending of the second element to -ide.

Molecular Nomenclature Prefixes PREFIX mono- di- tri- tetra- penta- hexa- hepta- octa- nona- deca- NUMBER
