1. BONDING General Rule of Thumb: metal + nonmetal = ionic
polyatomic ion + metal or polyatomic ion = ionic (both)
nonmetal + nonmetal(s) = covalent

2. WORKSHEET
Types of Chemical Bonds

Isn’t it ionic that opposites attract?

4. Valence Electrons (outer electrons)
All elements in a particular group or family have the same number of valence electrons (# = to group #)
Examples:
Group 1 elements (Na, K, Li, H): 1 valence electron.
Group 2 elements (Mg, Ca, Be): 2 valence electrons.
Group 17 elements (Cl, F, Br): 7 valence electrons.

5. Lewis Structures
Electron dot structures show the valence electrons as dots around the element’s symbol: Li B Si N O F Ne

6. Lewis Structures
Electron dot structures show the valence electrons as dots around the element’s symbol: Li B Si N O F Ne

7. Octet Rule
Noble gas atoms are very stable; they have stable electron configurations. In forming compounds, atoms make adjustments to achieve the lowest possible (or most stable) energy.
Octet rule: atoms react by changing the number of electrons (become ions) so as to acquire the stable electron structure of a noble gas.

8. IONS (go back to list of Lewis Structures)
Electron dot structures show the valence electrons as dots around the element’s symbol:
Li : group 1 = loses 1 electron = Li+
B : metalloid = don’t do these for ions
Si (Group 4 elements don’t form ions)
N: group 5 = gains 3 electrons to become like group 8= N3- O F
Ne: Noble Gases are stable, do not form ions

9. Ionic Bonds
Anions and cations have opposite charges; they attract one another by electrostatic forces
(IONIC BONDS)
Na+ attracts Cl-

10. Ionic Bonds
Ionic compounds are electrically neutral groups of ions joined together by electrostatic forces. (also known as salts)
the positive charges of the cations must equal the negative charges of the anions.

DETERMINE THE CHARGE OF THE ION, CRISS CROSS CHARGES so the compound is NEUTRAL!!! (compounds DO NOT have charges)
Cation + always goes 1st, Anion – always goes last!!

14. Making Ionic Compounds
+ CATION always goes first in a compound!!!
- ANION always goes last in a compound!!!

15. Another Example: reducing to the simplest formula
What is the ionic compound formula for the calcium ion with the oxide ion?
Ca O

16. Ionic Compounds w/ polyatomic ions
DO NOT CHANGE THE FORMULA OF A POLYATOMIC ION!!!
Determine the formula for:
Li+ and PO43-
NH4+ and N3-

20. NOW LET’S NAME THEM

21. Covalent Bonds
The joy of sharing!

22. Covalent Bonds
Covalent bonds: occur between two or more nonmetals; electrons are shared not transferred (as in ionic bonds)
The result of sharing electrons is that atoms attain a more stable electron configuration.

23. Covalent Bonds Most covalent bonds involve:
2 electrons (single covalent bond),
4 electrons (double covalent bond, or
6 electrons (triple covalent bond).

24. MOLECULES
Lewis structures (electron dot structures) show the structure of molecules. (Bonds can be shown with dots for electrons, or with dashes: 1 dash = 2 electrons)

25. Writing Lewis Formulas (for molecules)
How to:
Add up all valence electrons for EACH atom in the molecule
Attach atoms with a single bond (skeleton drawing) (C = ALWAYS CENTRAL, H = ALWAYS ON OUTSIDE OF STRUCTURE)
Subtract out 2 electrons for each single bond you drew (EACH BOND = 2 electrons)
Distribute remaining electrons (in pairs) around atoms to obtain octet rule (except H)
If there’s not enough electrons to satisfy the octet rule, make MULTIPLE BONDS (double, triple)

32. Octet Rule
Octet Rule: The representative elements achieve noble gas configurations (8 electrons) by sharing electrons.
THERE ARE A FEW EXCEPTIONS!!!
Hydrogen can only have 1 bond (2 electrons around it)

42. Resonance
A molecule or polyatomic ion for which 2 or more dot formulas with the same arrangement of atoms can be drawn is said to exhibit RESONANCE.

43. Resonance Example CO32- 3 resonance structures can be drawn for CO32-
the relationship among them is indicated by the double arrow.
the true structure is an average of the 3.

(the dashed lines indicate the 4 pairs of bonding electrons are equally distributed among 3 C-O bonds; unshared electron pairs are not shown)

BUT, molecules are 3 dimensional!
for example, CH4 is:

BUT, molecules are 3 dimensional!
but in 3D it is:
a tetrahedron!
= coming out of page
= going into page
= flat on page

50. Why do molecules take on 3D shapes instead of being flat?
Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion theory
“because electron pairs repel one another, molecules adjust their shapes so that the valence electron pairs are as far apart from another as possible.”

51. Why do molecules take on 3D shapes instead of being flat?

Remember: both shared and unshared electron pairs will repel one another (unshared electron pairs repel MORE than shared electron pairs in bonds)

52. 5 Basic Molecule Shapes
1. tetrahedral
example: CH4

53. 5 Basic Molecule Shapes 2. Pyramidal Example: NH3
(note: unshared pair of electron repels, but is not considered part of overall shape; no atom there to contribute to the shape)

54. 5 Basic Molecule Shapes 3. Bent or angular Example: H2O
Notice electron pair repulsion

55. 5 Basic Molecule Shapes
4. Linear
Example: CO2

56. 5 Basic Molecule Shapes 5. Trigonal planar or planar triangular
Example: BF3

57. CHEAT SHEET… Let’s make this easy to remember shapes
Linear= only 2 regions of SHARED electron pairs (no unshared electrons) around the CENTRAL atom
Bent = 2 SHARED electron pairs, 2 UNSHARED electron pairs around the CENTRAL atom
Tetrahedral = 4 SHARED electron pairs (meaning 4 bonds) around the CENTRAL atom
Trigonal Planar = 3 SHARED electron pairs (meaning 3 bonds) around the CENTRAL atom
Pyramidal = 3 SHARED electron pairs, 1 UNSHARED pair of electrons around the CENTRAL atom

58. Warm-Up…
Define ionic and covalent bond in your own words (what is happening to the electrons)
List the five different molecule shapes and state what is found around the central atom in each

59. Electronegativity
We’ve learned how valence electrons are shared to form covalent bonds between elements. So far, we have considered the electrons to be shared equally. However, in most cases, electrons are not shared equally because of a property called electronegativity.

60. Electronegativity
The ELECTRONEGATIVITY of an element is: the tendency for an atom to attract electrons to itself when it is chemically combined with another element.
The result: a “tug-of-war” between the nuclei of the atoms.

61. Electronegativity
Electronegativities are given numerical values (the most electronegative element has the highest value; the least electronegative element has the lowest value)
*** see Periodic Table, in lower part of element box
Most electronegative element:
Fluorine (4.0)
Least electronegative elements:
Fr (0.70), Cs (0.79)

62. Electronegativity Notice the periodic trend:
As we move from left to right across a row, electronegativity increases (metals have low values nonmetals have high values – excluding noble gases)
As we move down a column, electronegativity decreases.
The higher the electronegativity value, the greater the ability to attract electrons to itself.

63. Nonpolar Bonds
When the atoms in a molecule are the same, the bonding electrons are shared equally.
Result: a nonpolar covalent bond
Examples: O2, F2, H2, N2, Cl2

64. Polar Bonds
When 2 different atoms are joined by a covalent bond, and the bonding electrons are shared unequally, the bond is a polar covalent bond, or POLAR BOND.
The atom with the stronger electron attraction (the more electronegative element) acquires a slightly negative charge.
The less electronegative atom acquires a slightly positive charge.

65. Polar Bonds H Cl Example: HCl Electronegativities: - + H = 2.20

66. Polar Bonds
Example: H2O
Electronegativities:
H = 2.20
O = 3.44

67. Polar Bonds
Example: H2O
Electronegativities:
H = 2.20
O = 3.44

68. Polar Bonds
Example: H2O
Electronegativities:
H = 2.20
O = 3.44

69. Electronegativity Difference
Predicting Bond Types
Electronegativities help us predict the type of bond:
Electronegativity Difference
Type of Bond
Example
0.00 – 0.40
H-H
0.41 – 1.00
H-Cl
1.01 – 2.00
H-F
2.01 or higher
Na+Cl-

(slightly polar)

(very polar)

70. Polar Molecules
A polar bond in a molecule can make the entire molecule polar
A molecule that has 2 poles (charged regions), like H-Cl, is called a dipolar molecule, or dipole.

71. Playing with Poalrity
Fill your petri dish with water, all the way to the top
GENTLY place paper clips on the top of the water– you should be able to get them to float
Why do they float if they have a greater density than water?

72. Playing with Polarity (CONTINUED)
Remove the paperclips and cover the surface of the water with a thin layer of pepper. What do you notice?
Now take one of the toothpicks and place the end of the toothpick into he center of the petri dish. What happened?
Dump the contents of your petri dish in the sink and wipe it out with a paper towel
LIKE mixes with LIKE

73. Playing with Polarity (CONTINUED)
You should have a plate full of milk.
Put one drop of each color food coloring near to the center but not directly in the center (see image on board)
Grab a toothpick and put the end in the center of the tray of milk (just like last time). Again, what happened?
Continue putting the toothpicks in various places on the dish and observe
Dump the contents of your petri dish in the sink and leave it on the counter

74. Polar Molecules
The effect of polar bonds on the polarity of a molecule depends on the shape of the molecule.
Example: CO2
O = C = O shape: linear
*The bond polarities cancel because they are in opposite directions; CO2 is a nonpolar molecule.

75. Polar Molecules
The effect of polar bonds on the polarity of a molecule depends on the shape of the molecule.
Water, H2O, also has 2 polar bonds:
But, the molecule is bent, so the bonds do not cancel.
H2O is a polar molecule.

76. Geometry and polarity Three shapes will cancel out polarity.
