Chemical Bonding Page 2 • Chemical Bond – attractive force between atoms or ions that binds them together as a unit – bonds form in order to… • decrease potential energy (PE) • increase stability CHEMICAL FORMULA IONIC COVALENT Formula Unit Molecular Formula NaCl CO2 COMPOUND 2 elements Binary Compound NaCl more than 2 elements Ternary Compound NaNO3 ION 1 atom Monatomic Ion + Na 2 or more atoms Polyatomic Ion NO3 Chemical bonds are formed when valence electrons are: • transferred from one atom to another (ionic) • shared between atoms (covalent) • mobile within a metal (metallic) 6 Ionic bonds are formed when metals transfer their valence electrons to nonmetals. The oppositely charged ions attract each other to form an ionic bond. Sodium has one valence electron and chlorine has seven. Sodium want to lose 1 electron and chlorine needs to gain 1. Sodium transfers its valence electron to chlorine Forming an Na+ and a Cl- ion – sodium chloride NaCl 7 Electron-dot diagrams (Lewis structures) can represent the valence electron arrangement in elements, compounds, and ions. atom ion molecular compound ionic compound 8 Dots represent valence electrons. Everything else (inner shell electrons and nucleus) is called the Kernel and is represented by the symbol. Phosphorous has 5 valence electrons so we draw 5 dots around the symbol for phosphorous. 9 Draw the Lewis Dot Structures of the first 18 elements. 10 When metals lose electrons to form ions, they lose all their valence electrons. The Lewis Dot Structure of a metal ion has no dots. The charge indicates how many electrons were lost. Magnesium atom Magnesium ion 11 When nonmetals gain electrons, they fill up their valence shell with a complete octet (except hydrogen.) The ion is placed in brackets with the charge outside the brackets. 12 A + metal ion is attracted to a – nonmetal ion (opposites attract) forming an ionic compound. We can use Lewis dot structures to represent ionic compounds. The formula for magnesium fluoride is MgF2 13 Two major categories of compounds are ionic and molecular (covalent) compounds. (5.2g) • Ionic compounds are formed when a metal combines with a nonmetal. • Ionic compounds have ionic bonds. • Molecular compounds are formed between two nonmetals. • Molecular compounds have covalent bonds. 14 Comparing the properties compounds with ionic bonds and compounds with covalent bonds. Properties of ionic compounds – Solids with high melting and boiling points (strong attraction between ions) – Electrolytes: Do not conduct electricity as solids but do when dissolved or molten – ions are charged particles that are free to move – No individual molecules Properties of molecular compounds – Low melting and boiling points (weak attraction between molecules) – Nonelectrolytes: Do not conduct electricity as solids or when dissolved or molten – no charged particles (ions) to move – Solids are soft 15 – Forms molecules Ionic solids conduct electricity when dissolved or molten. Molecular solids do not. Solution doesn’t conduct electricity Solution conducts electricity Ionic Solid dissolved in water Molecular Solid dissolved in water 16 Nomenclature “Or How Do We Name Compounds” Systematic Naming • Compound is made up of two or more elements • Name should tell us how many and what type of atoms • Too many compounds to remember all the names Cation – Positive ion – Formed by losing electrons – Metals form cations Anion – Negative ion – Has gained electrons – Non metals form anions Ionic Compounds • Made of cations and anions • Metals and nonmetals • Electrons lost by the cation are gained by the anion Ionic Compounds Sodium is cation Na + Cl 1+ Na + 1- Cl Chlorine is anion Charges on Ions Naming Ions • Metal ion is written first in both name and formula – It is named directly from element which formed the ion. – Will nearly always be the positive ion or “cation” – Transition metals can have more than one type of charge – Indicate the charge with roman numerals in parenthesis.

(5.2e) •Diatomic oxygen has a double bond O=O (2 shared pairs) because oxygen needs 2 electrons to fill its valence shell •Diatomic nitrogen has a triple bond NN (3 shared pairs) because nitrogen needs 3 electrons to fill its valence shell •Carbon dioxide has two double bonds 44 Regents Question: 08/02 #17 Which molecule contains a triple covalent bond? (1) H 2 (2) N 2 (3) O 2 (4) Cl 2 45 Molecular polarity can be determined by the shape of the molecule and the distribution of charge. • Possible shapes – Linear – Bent – Pyramidal – Tetrahedral (X2 HX CO2) (H2O) (NH3) (CH4 CCl4) A polar molecule is called a dipole. It has a positive side and a negative side – uneven charge distribution. 46 Symmetrical (nonpolar) molecules include CO2 , CH4 , and diatomic elements. .. Symmetrical molecules are not dipoles. 47 Asymmetrical (polar) molecules include HCl, NH3 , and H2 O. (5.2l) The negative side of the molecule is the side that has the atom with the higher electronegativity. 48 Differences between ionic and covalent bonding: Ionic bonding • electron is “stolen” • high electronegativity difference • between metal & nonmetal • Formation of crystal structure think proportions of atoms in formula unit NaCl 1:1 Na + Cl + Na + Cl Molecules are easier to name and work with • Ionic compounds use charges to determine how many of each. – Have to figure out charges – Have to figure out numbers • Molecular compound’s name tells you the number of atoms.

Comparison of Bonding Types ionic covalent ions molecules nonconductive molten salts conductive transfer of electrons high mp DEN > 1.7 valence electrons sharing of electrons low mp DEN < 1.7 The bonds holding metals together in their crystal lattice are called metallic bonds. • All metals have metallic bonds • “Positive ions immersed in a sea of mobile electrons” – Bonds are between Kernels, leaving the valence electrons free to move from atom to atom – Mobile electrons give metals the ability to conduct electricity 58 Intermolecular Forces • Weaker than covalent bonds • Weak intermolecular forces – lower boiling point The stronger the intermolecular forces, the higher the boiling points and melting points. Strongest • • • • Ionic Solids Molecules with Hydrogen bonds Polar molecules Nonpolar molecules Weakest For nonpolar molecules, the greater the mass, the greater the force of attraction. 61 Hydrogen Bonds • Hydrogen bonds are considered to be dipoledipole type interactions • Hydrogen bonds vary from about 4 kJ/mol to 25 kJ/mol (so they are still weaker than typical covalent bonds. • But they are stronger than dipole-dipole and or dispersion forces. Hydrogen Bonds Hydrogen Bonds ion-dipole forces • Attractive forces between neutral molecules and charged (ionic) compounds Ion-dipole forces (Ion-Molecule attraction) •are important in solutions of ionic substances in polar solvents •(e.g. a salt in aqueous solvent) Van der Waals Forces • • • • Weak bonds Liquefy gases Bonds that combine gas molecules to form liquid Ex. CO2 – liquid in toy car - liquid nitrogen • Molecules must be close to each other • Larger atoms have stronger Van-der Waals forces Dipole-dipole Forces • Polar molecules attract one another when the partial positive charge on one molecule is near the partial negative charge on the other molecule • The polar molecules must be in close proximity for the dipoledipole forces to be significant • Dipole-dipole forces are characteristically weaker than iondipole forces • Dipole-dipole forces increase with an increase in the polarity of the molecule London Dispersion Forces • Nonpolar molecules would not seem to have any basis for attractive interactions • However, gases of nonpolar molecules can be liquefied indicating that if the kinetic energy is reduced, some type of attractive force can predominate. • Fritz London (1930) suggested that the motion of electrons within an atom or non-polar molecule can result in a transient dipole moment London Forces
