Chapters 4 & 5 Chemical Formulas and Bonding
2
Compound Formation Atoms form compounds to become more stable and achieve a full set of valence electrons. Compound takes on a new set of properties from the original elements. Ex: water, sodium chloride, sucrose (sugar)
3
Ionic Bonding Ionic bonds are the electrical attraction between positive and negative ions
4
Ionic Compounds Consist of positive and negative charged ions Positively charged ions: cations Negatively charged ions: anions Ionic compounds are electrically neutral Sodium ions + chloride ions Lead (IV) ions + nitrate ions
5
Properties of Ionic Compounds Generally high melting points; solid at room temperature Brittle Dissociate in water Ions are pulled apart in water Causes the solution to become a good conductor of electricity Represented by an empirical formula Shows the ratios of ions in the compound
6
Ion Formation The Octet Rule Atoms tend to gain, lose, or share electrons in order to acquire a full set of valence electrons Most atoms need 8 valence electrons
7
Lewis Dot Diagrams Shows the valence electrons of an atom as dots around the element symbol. Shorthand way of representing the atom Often used to represent changes to valence electrons during a chemical reaction
8
Lewis Dot Diagrams Examples: Sodium chloride Aluminum fluoride
9
Writing Ionic Formulas Examples: Lithium sulfate Potassium iodide Magnesium chlorate
10
Naming Ionic Compounds Name of positive ion followed by name of negative ion Examples: LiNO 3 FeCl 3 KMnO 4 CaCr 2 O 7 NaS 2 O 3
11
Homework Worksheet 7.1
12
Covalent Bonding Covalent bonds are formed by the sharing of a pair of electrons between 2 atoms A group of covalently bonded atoms is called a molecule Covalent compounds are called molecular substances or compounds
13
Molecular (Covalent) Compounds Shown by molecular formulas Shows the types of atoms and the actual number of each Glucose = C 6 H 12 O 6 What would be the empirical formula? The molecular formula for lactic acid is C 3 H 6 0 3 What would be its empirical formula?
14
Sometimes, different molecules have the same molecular formulas Glucose is part of a family of sugars with the molecular formula C 6 H 12 O 6 Structural Formulas are used to specify how the atoms are actually bonded to each other.
15
Electronegativity in covalent bonds Electrons in covalent bonds are not always shared equally If one atom is significantly more electronegative than the other, the bond is called a polar bond When atoms sharing electrons are similar in electronegativity, the bond is nonpolar
16
Bond Type by Electronegativity Ionic bonds: large difference in electronegativity (>2.0) The elements are very far apart on the periodic table (metals and nonmetals) Polar covalent bonds (.4-2.0) Elements are fairly close on the periodic table (very electronegative nonmetal with another nonmetal) Nonpolar covalent bonds (<.4) Atoms are very close to each other
17
Naming molecular compounds Prefixes are attached to the name of the atoms to indicate the number of atoms. Less electronegative atom is listed first, more electronegative is second On the more electronegative atom, the end of the name is dropped and –ide is added.
18
Prefixes Mono- Di- Tri- Tetra- Penta- Hexa- Hepta- Octa- Nona- Deca-
19
Exceptions 1. Prefix mono- is normally left off the first word of a compound’s name 2. Diatomic molecules are called by their elemental name 3. Some molecules have common names: H 2 O = water NH 3 = ammonia
20
Practice N 2 O 4 PCl 5 NF 3
21
Naming Hydrates A hydrate is an ionic compound with water absorbed into its solid structure Anhydrous is the opposite (water- free) Name the ionic compound followed by the proper prefix and the word hydrate.
22
Hydrates Practice CuSO 4 * 5H 2 O MgSO 4 * 7H 2 O
23
Acids Acids are substances that dissolve in water to produce H + ions Name acids according to anion: If anion ends in –ide Hydro-root name of anion-ic acid If anion ends in –ate Change the –ate to –ic acid If anion ends in –ite Change the –ite to –ous acid
24
Acid practice HCl HBr H 2 SO 4 HClO 3 HNO 2
25
Hydrocarbons Covalently bonded organic compounds containing C and H Name always ends in –ane Prefix tells number of carbons Number of hydrogens = carbonsX2 + 2
26
Hydrocarbon prefixes Meth- Eth- Prop- But- Pent- Hex- Hept- Oct- Non- Dec-
27
Hydrocarbon practice Ethane Nonane C 8 H 18 C 5 H 12
28
Mixed Review Name the following: H 2 SO 3 Mg(NO 2 ) 2 * 6H 2 O S 2 O 6 Write formulas for: Trinitrogen heptaoxide Heptane Potassium dichromate Hydrosulfuric acid
