1. Metallic Bonding

2. Metallic Bonds are a special type of bonding that occurs only in metals A metallic bond occurs in metals. A metal consists of positive ions surrounded by a “sea” of mobile electrons. Characteristics of a Metallic Bond. 1.Good conductors of heat and electricity 2.Great strength 3.Malleable and Ductile 4.Luster This diagram shows how metallic bonds might appear 2

4.  All the atoms in metallic bonds are alike. They all have diffuse electron densities. They are similar to the cations in ionic bonds.  Like the cations in ionic crystals, metallic atoms give up their valence electrons, but instead of giving the electrons to some other specific atom, they are redistributed to all atoms, and are shared by all.  All the atoms in metallic bonds are alike.

5.  The model is called "electron gas".  Eg. Na metal. 1s 2 2s 2 2p 6 3s 1. Each Na atom gives up its 3s 1 electrons. We end up with an array of positive ions in a sea of negatively charged space.  The electron gas behaves like the “glue” that holds the metal structure together.  The model is called "electron gas".  Eg.

6. Close Packing Structures There are two ways to position the third layer: Offset and directly above layer 1  Offset  Directly above 6

7. Metallic Bond Characteristics  Properties of metals  Metallic shiny luster.  Malleable.  Electrical conductivity.  Easy tendency to form alloys.  High density.  Alloys  Because the atoms are considered to be positive spheres in a sea of electrons, any similar sized sphere can fit right in without too much trouble.  Even dissimilar sized (i.e. even smaller H atoms) can fit into the spaces between atoms.  Properties of metals  Metallic shiny luster.  Malleable.  Electrical conductivity.  Easy tendency to form alloys.  High density.  Alloys  Because the atoms are considered to be positive spheres in a sea of electrons, any similar sized sphere can fit right in without too much trouble.  Even dissimilar sized (i.e. even smaller H atoms) can fit into the spaces between atoms. 7

8. Alloys Small amounts of a another element added to a metal can change its overall properties. For example, adding a small amount of carbon to iron, will significantly increase its hardness and strength forming steel.

9. Semimetals The electrons in semimetals are much less mobile than in metals, hence they are semiconductors Silicon Magnesium 9

11. Bonding Types Are Continuous There are no clear boundaries between the three types of bonding. Chemical bonding may be thought of as a triangle. Each vertex represents one of the three types of chemical bonds. There are all degrees of bonding types between these extremes. 11

16. Sigma and Pi bonds

17. The Sigma Bond  This is the interaction between two orbitals that overlap along a bond axis.  Can form between s, p, or hybrid orbitals.  This is the interaction between two orbitals that overlap along a bond axis.  Can form between s, p, or hybrid orbitals.

18. Pi Bonding  Is the interaction between to p orbitals overlap perpendicular to the bond axis.  This type of bond only forms by the overlap of the p orbitals with the formation of a sigma bond.  Pi bonds only form when there are double or triple bonds between the two bonding atoms.  Is the interaction between to p orbitals overlap perpendicular to the bond axis.  This type of bond only forms by the overlap of the p orbitals with the formation of a sigma bond.  Pi bonds only form when there are double or triple bonds between the two bonding atoms.

19. Hybridization of Bonds

20. Analogy  Imagine if you have three red buckets and one white bucket of paint.  Mixing them all together you would have four buckets of equally pink paint.  In bonding one s orbital and three p orbitals hybridize in order to produce four hybrid sp3 orbitals that are all equal in energy.  They energy and shape are a blend of s and p but more closely related to p orbitals.  Imagine if you have three red buckets and one white bucket of paint.  Mixing them all together you would have four buckets of equally pink paint.  In bonding one s orbital and three p orbitals hybridize in order to produce four hybrid sp3 orbitals that are all equal in energy.  They energy and shape are a blend of s and p but more closely related to p orbitals.

21.  Imagine if you now have two buckets of red paint and one white bucket.  Again mixing them all together you will gain three buckets of a lighter pink paint.  This is a good analogy for the hybridization of one s orbitals and two p orbitals  Forming three equal sp2 hybrid orbitals  Finally when one s orbital and one p orbital interact they from two equal sp orbitals.  Imagine if you now have two buckets of red paint and one white bucket.  Again mixing them all together you will gain three buckets of a lighter pink paint.  This is a good analogy for the hybridization of one s orbitals and two p orbitals  Forming three equal sp2 hybrid orbitals  Finally when one s orbital and one p orbital interact they from two equal sp orbitals.

22.  Carbon can form 4 covalent bonds however when we write out the electron configuration we find that it really only have 2 unpaired electrons  1s 2 2s 2 2p 2  During bonding the ground state for carbon actually changes. The excitation state pushes one of the electrons from the 2s orbit to the unoccupied 2p orbital  Carbon can form 4 covalent bonds however when we write out the electron configuration we find that it really only have 2 unpaired electrons  1s 2 2s 2 2p 2  During bonding the ground state for carbon actually changes.
