Chemical Fundamentals Review Living things are composed of matter. Matter has mass, occupies space. Atoms composed of: – Small nucleus Proton (positive charge) Neutron (no charge) – Orbited by Electrons in arranged in shells (negative charge)
3
What is the PERIODIC TABLE? oShows all known elements in the universe. oOrganizes the elements by chemical properties.
4
How do you read the PERIODIC TABLE?
5
What is the ATOMIC NUMBER? oThe number of protons found in the nucleus of an atom Or oThe number of electrons surrounding the nucleus of an atom.
6
What is the SYMBOL? oAn abbreviation of the element name.
7
What is the ATOMIC WEIGHT? oThe number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom.
8
How do I find the number of protons, electrons, and neutrons in an element using the periodic table? o# of PROTONS = ATOMIC NUMBER o# of ELECTRONS = ATOMIC NUMBER o# of NEUTRONS = ATOMIC _ ATOMIC WEIGHT NUMBER
9
Example Atomic Mass – 12 Atomic Number - 6 Protons (6) Electrons (6) Neutrons (12-6 = 6)
10
Bohr Rutherford Diagrams 1.Write how many protons and neutrons are in the nucleus. 2.Draw electrons in rings (energy shells) around the nucleus. Ex. Fluorine 19 F 9 9p+ 10 n
11
Bohr- Rutherford Diagrams 1.Write the # of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. 2.The 1 st electron energy shell has a maximum of 2 electrons. 3.The 2 nd electron energy shell has a maximum of 8 electrons. 4.The 3 rd electron energy shell has a maximum of 8 electrons. 18p + 22n 0 Argon
12
Why are Electrons so Important? The chemical behaviour of an atom depends mostly on the number of electrons in its outermost shell. valence electrons/shell All atoms with incomplete valence shells are chemically reactive and are responsible for the formation of chemical bonds between atoms.
13
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 H would like to Gain 4 electrons Gain 3 electrons Gain 2 electrons Gain 1 electron
14
Atoms bond to form compounds Compounds are made up of at least 2 different kinds of atoms (e.g., H 2 O) Bonds are formed by the sharing or transfer of electrons 2 Types of Chemical Bonds Ionic Bonds Covalent bonds
15
Ionic Bonds – occur when one atom donates or gives up one or more electrons - metal and non metal Ionic Compound ( Na + Cl - ) Salt crystals Opposite charges attract to form ionic bonds
16
Covalent Bonds – involve a sharing of a pair of valence electrons between atoms between two non-metals
17
Single covalent bond Double covalent bond Four single covalent bonds Two single covalent bonds
18
2 Types of Covalent Bonds Polar CovalentNon-polar covalent Equal sharing of electrons Unequal sharing of electrons Determined by the atoms ELECTRONEGATIVITY E.g. H 2 O 2 E.g. H 2 O
19
Electronegativity The measure of an atom’s attraction for additional electrons Polar Covalent Bond - unequal sharing of electrons between two atoms with different electronegativity results. Non-Polar Covalent Bond – equal sharing of electrons between two atoms. Electronegativity = Stronger pull of shared electrons
20
The electronegativity difference ( ∆ En) is the difference in electronegativity number between two atoms participating in a covalent bond.
21
Electronegativity Differences
22
Molecular Polarity Depends on – Distribution of charges – Molecular shape Symmetrical molecular shapes produce non-polar molecules (whether bonds are polar or not) Asymmetrical molecular shapes produce polar molecules Balanced charges produce non-polar molecules Non-balanced charges produce polar molecules
23
Polar Molecules Align themselves to other polar molecules Soluble in water Exclude non-polar molecules (oils and fats)
25
VSEPR Valence shell electron pair repulsion Electrons repel one another forming the shape of the molecule Includes both bonded electron pairs and non- bonding electron pairs (lone pairs)
26
