1. Bell Ringer  How do we know how many valence electrons an atom has?  What happens during ionic bonding?  What is holding an ionic molecule together?  What 2 classes of elements are involved in an ionic bond?

2. Covalent Bonding Chapter 6.2 a

3. Chemical Bonding  Ionic Bond – Force that holds cations and anions together and which involves the transfer of electrons.  Occurs between a metal and a nonmetal.

4. Chemical Bonding  What do you think will happen when 2 nonmetals bond?  Will there be a transfer of electrons? Why? FF

5. Covalent Bonding  When two nonmetals meet - one atom is NOT strong enough to take electrons from the other!  So they must share them  Covalent Bond!  Covalent bond - is a chemical bond in which two atoms share one or more pairs of valence electrons.

6. Covalent Bonding  Electrons want to be in pairs – 4 pairs of 2 to fulfill the octet rule.  Paired electrons are ‘happy’!  Unpaired electrons are ‘sad’

9.  All 3 figures represent the same thing!  BAR = Bond of shared electrons FF FFFF

10.  Diatomic means “two atoms”.  Atoms of same element share bonding electrons equally.  Balanced

12. FFFF OR Single Bond = One Pair of e - Shared Between Two Atoms. Each atom gives one e - to the shared pair
