1. Compounds Video Clip: Why it Matters

2. NOTES 2: VALENCE ELECTRONS, LEWIS DOT DIAGRAMS, AND OXIDATION NUMBERS

3. 1. How many total electrons are in a neutral atom of Sulfur? 2. How many electrons are in sulfur’s highest energy level (it’s most outer shell)(HINT: use the picture to the right)? Review: Bohr’s Electron Model 3. How many electrons does sulfur need to gain or lose in order to have 8 valence electrons (electrons in the outermost shell)?

4. Bohr developed an atomic model in which the electrons are arranged in specific energy levels. The lowest level (n=1) is located closest to the nucleus. The highest level is located farther away from the nucleus. Recap: Bohr’s Electron Model

5. *The electrons in the highest energy level for any element are known as valence electrons.* Valence electrons are involved in chemical bonding. Bonding and Valence Electrons Video Clip Bonding and Valence Electrons Video Clip Recap: Bohr’s Electron Model

7. Valence Electrons: Valence Electrons can be easily found by looking at the Group number or “A” number located above the column where the element is located on the periodic table.

8. Examples: Al= Group # ___ and ____A so it has ___ valence electrons. Pb= Group # ___ and ____ A so it has ____ valence electrons. 13 3 3 14 4 4

9. Valence Electrons the Quick and Easy Way Determine the number of valence electrons. Phosphorus Phosphorus Argon Argon Lead Lead Barium Barium 5 valence electrons 8 valence electrons 4 valence electrons 2 valence electrons

10. Exceptions * This ONLY works for Group A Elements (the Representative Elements) Helium  two valence electrons

11. LEWIS DOT DIAGRAMS: is a diagram in which the chemical symbol of an element represents the nucleus and the inner energy level and “dots” represent the valence electrons. 1. There can only be up to 8 valence electrons and thus only 8 dots around a symbol. 2. The first 4 dots are single and then they pair up as more are added. Octet rule states that all atoms wish to be like the Nobel gases (group 18) with a full valence of 8 electrons.

17. Oxidation numbers OXIDATION NUMBERS: is the number of electrons an atom gains, loses, or shares when it forms a chemical bond and achieves the octet rule. This will also be the charge of the ION. Metals as a rule lose electrons and will have a (+) charge. Nonmetals will gain electrons and have a ( -) charge Nobel gases in group 18 will not lose or gain and have a 0 charge
