How many
electrons
does a
Fluorine
atom have?
9
_______
Electron Energy Levels
most stable atoms have the
The
outermost energy level filled.
 Atoms in which the outermost energy level
is filled does not easily gain or lose
electrons, therefore they do not easily form
compounds with other elements.
 ____________ electrons represent the
number of electrons in the outer energy
level.

CHEMICAL BONDS
When two or more elements come
together, they form a compound.
 Compounds are held together by forces
called chemical bonds.
 Atoms can form chemical bonds by
sharing electrons or by transferring
electrons from one atom to another.

Types of Bonds

When a compound is formed through the
transfer of electrons, this is called an ionic
bond.


Most ionic compounds are formed by the
transfer of electrons from a metal to a
nonmetal.
When an atom loses an electron to move to
another atom, it ends up with more protons than
positive
electrons. This results in an overall __________
charge.
Types of Bonding
When an atom gains an electron from
another atom, it ends up with more
electrons with protons. This results in an
negative
overall ___________
charge.
 Ions – electrically charged atoms.
(Ex) Na+ or Cl
Cl
Now, the Na gives
or transfers its one
extra electron to Cl

Types of Bonding

Covalent bond – a bond based on the
attraction between atoms that share
electrons.
(Ex) Water –H2 O
