BONDING PART II

Covalent Bonds

LET’S FIRST REVIEW IONIC BONDING
4
F K In an IONIC bond, electrons are lost or gained,
resulting in the formation of IONS in ionic compounds. F K

12
K F _ + The compound potassium fluoride
consists of potassium (K+) ions and fluoride (F-) ions
13
K F _ + The ionic bond is the attraction between the positive K+ ion
and the negative F- ion
14
So what are covalent bonds?
15
In covalent bonding, atoms still want to achieve a noble gas configuration (the octet rule).
16
But rather than losing or gaining electrons,
In covalent bonding, atoms still want to achieve a noble gas configuration (the octet rule). But rather than losing or gaining electrons, atoms now share an electron pair.
17
The shared electron pair is called a bonding pair
In covalent bonding, atoms still want to achieve a noble gas configuration (the octet rule). But rather than losing or gaining electrons, atoms now share an electron pair. The shared electron pair is called a bonding pair
18
Chlorine forms a covalent bond with itself Cl2
19
How will two chlorine atoms react? Cl Cl
20
Cl Cl Each chlorine atom wants to
gain one electron to achieve an octet
21
Cl Cl do to achieve an octet? What’s the solution – what can they
Neither atom will give up an electron – chlorine is highly electronegative. What’s the solution – what can they do to achieve an octet?

Cl Cl octet
27
Cl Cl octet circle the electrons for each atom that completes
their octets
28
Cl Cl The octet is achieved by each atom sharing the
electron pair in the middle circle the electrons for each atom that completes their octets
29
Cl Cl The octet is achieved by each atom sharing the
electron pair in the middle circle the electrons for each atom that completes their octets
30
Cl Cl This is the bonding pair circle the electrons for
each atom that completes their octets
31
Cl Cl It is a single bonding pair circle the electrons for
each atom that completes their octets
32
Cl Cl It is called a SINGLE BOND circle the electrons for
each atom that completes their octets
33
Single bonds are abbreviated
Cl Cl Single bonds are abbreviated with a dash circle the electrons for each atom that completes their octets
34
This is the chlorine molecule,
Cl Cl This is the chlorine molecule, Cl2 circle the electrons for each atom that completes their octets
35
O2 Oxygen is also one of the diatomic molecules
36
O How will two oxygen atoms bond?
37
O Each atom has two unpaired electrons

O Oxygen atoms are highly electronegative.
So both atoms want to gain two electrons.

Both electron pairs are shared.
51
O O 6 valence electrons plus 2 shared electrons = full octet
52
O O 6 valence electrons plus 2 shared electrons = full octet
53
O O two bonding pairs, making a double bond
54
O O = For convenience, the double bond can be shown as two dashes.

This is the oxygen molecule,
= this is so cool!! This is the oxygen molecule, O2
56
Covalent bonding allows for an amazingly large variety
of compounds such as
57
water and carbon dioxide,
small compounds like water and carbon dioxide,
58
and ethanol (alcohol),
59
to larger compounds such as aspirin,
(21 atoms)
60
and the sex hormones estradiol and testosterone, (estrogen) (44 atoms)
61
to all of the 40,000 proteins you have in your body, including
62
insulin, with 779 atoms,
63
and hemoglobin, with about 9500 atoms!
64
The known chemical world, is far far far below 1% of that.
There are an estimated 1040 possible compounds containing up to 50 atoms The known chemical world, including natural and synthetic compounds, is far far far below 1% of that. NATURE volume 442 p August 2006

are commercially available.
As of 2007, there are about 31,000,000 known compounds; About 12.5 million of those are commercially available. Thousands of new compounds are discovered or synthesized every week! CAS registry:
