Bonding theories |
models that predict how atoms bond together to for molecules |
|
|
What is electron configuration? |
and what is it's Lewis structure? |
|
|
6 dots representing |
valance electrons |
|
|
what is an octet? |
Atoms with 8 valence electrons-particularly stable-are easily identified because they have 8 dots. |
|
|
duet |
the Lewis structure of helium contains two paired dots |
|
|
chemical bond |
involves the SHARING or TRANSFER of electrons |
|
|
ionic bond |
electrons are transfered
|
|
|
covalent bond |
electrons are shared |
|
|
octet rule |
a stable configuration usually consists of eight electrons in the outermost or valence shell |
|
|
double bond |
when two electron pairs are shared between two atoms |
|
|
Lewis structure or dot structure |
the valence electrons of main-group elements are represented as dots surrounding the symbol of the element
