Ionic bonding(C1.1.3a) I can recall how compounds are made. I can describe why sodium chloride is formed from its ions. I can explain what happens to the electrons during ionic bonding. I can list the properties of ionic compounds. Compound Atom Ion Electron Transfer Charge Ionic Bonding Sodium Chloride

Ions An ion is an atom which has gained or lost electrons and so has become charged. Draw the electronic configuration of: 1.Sodium atom 2.Chlorine atom We will then draw sodium and chlorine ions.

Metals When metal ions form ions they lose electrons. Metal ions always have a positive charge.

Non-metals When non-metals atoms form ions they gain electrons. Non-metal ions always have a negative charge.

Ions Draw: 1.A lithium ion and state its charge. 2.A fluorine ion and state its charge. 3.An oxygen ion and state its charge.

Ions

Sodium chloride WU

Sodium chloride Sodium and chlorine bond together to form sodium chloride. Bonding between a metal and a non - metal is ionic bonding.

Magnesium and oxygen Magnesium ions have the formula Mg2 +, and oxide ions have the formula O2 -. The compound magnesium oxide is held together by strong forces of attraction between the oppositely charged ions.

Feeling brave? Have a go at Calcium chloride

Calcium and chlorine Calcium ions have the formula Ca2+, and chloride ions have the formula Cl-. You need to show two chloride ions because two chloride ions are needed to balance the charge on a calcium ion.

Questions 1.Explain why magnesium oxide has the formula MgO. 2.Explain why calcium chloride has the formula CaCl 2. 3.Predict the formula of the ionic compound magnesium chloride.

Properties of ionic compounds Metal and non-metal. Metal ions lose electrons to become positively charged. Non-metal ions gain electrons to become negatively charged.

Giant structure Consist of many ions which form a giant structure, with strong electrostatic forces of attraction between the oppositely charged particles.

Ionic compound properties High melting and boiling point - The strong ionic bonds require a great deal of energy to overcome the forces of attraction between the ions. Conduct electricity when molten (heated until it melts), ions are free to move and can carry charge around a circuit.

Conducting electricity  When an ionic compound is dissolved in water e.g. sodium chloride the ions are free to move. The charged sodium and chloride ions carry the charge through the salty water. Solutions of ionic compounds conduct electricity. Electrodes placed in water Electrodes placed in salty water
