Atom – the smallest unit of matter Helium atom
4
ELECTRON SHELLS (OR ENERGY LEVELS) a)Atomic number = number of protons Number of Protons = number of Electrons b)Electrons are found at different energy levels or electron shells. c)Electrons found in the outermost energy level are valence electrons and determine how the atom bonds with other atoms
5
Electrons are placed in shells according to rules: 1)The 1st shell or energy level can hold up to 2 electrons 2)Each shell thereafter can hold up to 8 electrons
6
Octet Rule = atoms tend to gain, lose or share electrons so as to have 8 electrons C would like to N would like to O would like to Gain 4 electrons Gain 3 electrons Gain 2 electrons
7
Why are electrons important ? Elements have different electron configurations, which affect how the element bonds with other elements.
10
Electron Dot Structures Symbols of atoms with dots to represent the valence-shell electrons 1 2 13 14 15 16 17 18 H He: Li Be B C N O : F : Ne : Na Mg Al Si P S : Cl : Ar :
11
Chemical bonds: an attempt to fill electron shells Three Types of Bonding Ionic bonds Covalent bonds Metallic bonds

Learning Check A. X would be the electron dot formula for 1) Na 2) K 3) Al B. X would be the electron dot formula for 1) B 2) N 3) P Na, K N,P
13
IONIC BOND bond formed between two ions by the gain or loss of electrons
14
Ionic Bonds Ionic compounds result when metals react with nonmetals Metals lose electrons from their outermost energy level, creating a positively charged ion. Example: Na + Non-metals gain electrons in their outermost energy level, creating a negatively charged ion. Example: Cl -

21
Learning Check Give the ionic charge for each of the following: A. 12 p + and 10 e - 1) 02) 2+3) 2- B. 50p + and 46 e- 1) 2+2) 4+3) 4- C. 15 p + and 18e- 2) 3+ 2) 3-3) 5- 2+ 4+ 3-
22
Ionic Bonds Between atoms of metals and nonmetals Bond formed by gain or loss of electrons Produce charged ions, not molecules Usually form solids Examples; NaCl, CaCl 2, K 2 O
25
Ionic bond – electron from Na is transferred to Cl, this causes a charge imbalance in each atom. The Na becomes (Na + ) and the Cl becomes (Cl - ), charged particles or ions.
27
Ionic Bond, A Sea of Electrons
28
COVALENT BOND bond formed by the sharing of electron pairs
29
Covalent Bond Formed by sharing electron pairs Stable non-ionizing molecules. Often liquids or gases Examples; O 2, CO 2, C 2 H 6, H 2 O, SiC
30
Bonds in all the polyatomic ions and diatomic molecules are all COVALENT BONDS
32
Covalent bonds- Two atoms share one or more pairs of outer- shell electrons. Oxygen Atom Oxygen Molecule (O 2 ) Oxygen Molecule (O 2 )
33
- water is a polar molecule because the electrons are pulled closer to oxygen.
34
METALLIC BOND bond found in metals; holds metal atoms together very strongly
35
Metallic Bond Formed between atoms of metallic elements Good conductors at all states, lustrous, very high melting points Examples; Na, Fe, Al, Au, Co
36
Metals Form Alloys Metals do not combine with metals. They form alloys, which is a solution of a metal in a metal. Examples are steel, brass, bronze and pewter.
