1
Valence Electrons Electrons in the highest (outer) energy level
known as valence electrons have most contact with other atoms responsible for the chemical properties of atoms Outer s and p shells of noble gases contain 8 valence electrons (except He = 2) Example: Ne 2, 8 Ar 2, 8, 8
2
Keeping Track of Electrons
Atoms in the same column Have the same outer electron configuration. Have the same valence electrons. valence electrons - easily found from the group number of the representative elements on the periodic table. Group 2 - Be, Mg, Ca, etc.- have 2 valence electrons
3
X Electron Dot diagrams A way of keeping track of valence electrons.
How to write them 1. Write the symbol 2. Put one dot for each valence electron on each of the four sides of the symbol 3. Pair up only after all four sides of the symbol are occupied by one electron X
4
The Electron Dot diagram for Nitrogen
Nitrogen has 5 valence electrons. First we write the symbol N Then add 1 electron at a time to each side Pair up the 5th electron with the 1st electron
5
Write the electron dot diagram for
Na Mg C O F Ne He

Learning Check A. X would be the electron dot formula for
A. X would be the electron dot formula for 1) Na 2) K 3) Al B X would be the electron dot formula 1) B 2) N 3) P

Electron Dots For Cations
Metals will have few valence electrons (usually 3 or less) Ca
9
Electron Dots For Cations
Metals will have few valence electrons These will come off Ca
10
Electron Dots For Cations
Metals will have few valence electrons These will come off Forming positive ions Ca2+ Pseudo-noble gas configuration
11
Electron Dots For Anions
Nonmetals will have many valence electrons (usually 5 or more). They will gain electrons to fill outer shell. P P3-
12
Chemical Bonds Attraction between two or more atoms
Interaction between valence electrons Ionic bonds Covalent bonds
13
Ionic Bonding Anions and cations are held together by opposite charges. Simplest ratio of ions is called the formula unit. The bond is formed through the transfer of electrons. Electrons are transferred to achieve noble gas configuration.
