Covalent Bond
|
Chemical bond between two nonmetals in which electrons are shared
|
|
Molecule
|
Formed when two or more atoms bond covalently
|
|
Pure Covalent Bond
|
Both nonmetals have the same electronegativity and share electrons equally
|
|
What are the 7 diatomic molecules? (Molecules that are found with two atoms in nature)
|
1. H2 - Hydrogen
2. N2 - Nitrogen 3. O2 - Oxygen 4. F2 - Fluorine 5. Cl2 - Chlorine 6. Br2 - Bromine 7. I2 - Iodine |
|
Sigma Bond
|
Single covalent bond that occurs when the electron pair is shared in an area centered between two atoms
|
|
What are the three ways a sigma bond can form?
|
1. Overlap s orbital and s orbital
2. Overlap s orbital and p orbital 3. Overlap p orbital and p orbital |
|
Lewis Dot Structures
|
Shows placement of valence electrons to form covalent bonds and the possible geometry of the nucleus
|
|
Multiple Covalent Bonds
|
Formed when more than one pair of electrons are shared
|
|
Pi bond
|
Parallel orbitals overlap to share electrons
|
|
What bonds does a double covalent bond consist of?
|
1 sigma bond, 1 pi bond
|
|
What bonds does a triple covalent bond consist of?
|
1 sigma bond, 2 pi bonds
|
|
What are all covalent bonds a balance between?
|
Attractive forces between electrons and nuclei, and repulsive forces between nuclei and nuclei and electron and electron
|
|
What is the strength of a single bond?
|
2 electrons, longest, weakest
|
|
What is the strength of a double bond?
|
4 electrons, medium length, medium strength
|
|
What is the strength of a triple bond?
|
6 electrons, shortest, strongest
|
|
Energy is ________ when a bond forms.
|
Released
|
|
Energy is _____ to break a bond.
|
Taken
|
|
Bond Dissociation Energy
|
Amount of energy needed to break a specific covalent bond, always positive
|
|
Endothermic
|
Takes more energy to break the existing bonds than the energy given off when a new molecule forms
|
|
Exothermic
|
Takes less energy to break existing bonds than the energy given off when a new molecule forms
|
|
How do you name the first and second element in nomenclature?
|
First element- Use regular name from table
Second element- Ends in ide |
|
What are the exceptions to using prefixes?
|
1. first element never uses mono
2. second element drops o if it begins with a vowel |
|
Oxyacids
|
Polyatomic acids that contain Hydrogen
|
|
How do you name oxyacids?
|
-do not begin with "hydro"
-name using polyatomic ion -ate to ic, and ite to ous -make sure to write acid |
|
Structural Formula
|
Uses letter symbols and bonds to show the relative positions of atoms
|
|
Binary Acid
|
Contains only hydrogen and one other element
|
|
How do you name binary acids?
|
Hydro + root + ic Acid
|
|
Resonance
|
Condition that occurs when more than once valid Lewis structure can be written for a molecule or ion
|
|
Coordinate Covalent Bond
|
One atom donates a pair of electrons to be shared with an atom that needs two electrons to become stable
|
|
What are the rules for oxidation numbers in covalent molecules?
|
1. pure element oxidation # = 0
2. more electronegative atom keeps its natural oxidation state - this will be the oxidation state of the electronegative element 3. all halogens = -1 4. oxygen = -2 5. hydrogen = +1 |
|
Where does hybridization occur?
|
In molecules
|
|
What are hybridized single, double, and triple bonds called?
|
single - sp
double - sp2 triple - sp3 |
|
What are the four types of bonds?
|
1. Ionic
2. Pure (Nonpolar) Covalent 3. Polar Covalent 4. Metallic |
|
How can you use electronegativity to predict bond type?
|
1.70 and below = polar covalent
0 = pure covalent 1.70 and above = ionic |
|
Rules of Solubility
|
Polar + Polar = soluble
Nonpolar + Nonpolar = soluble Polar + Nonpolar = not soluble |
|
What is the glue that holds molecules together?
|
Van der Waals Forces
|
|
Dipole
|
-strongest intermolecule force
-between polar molecules -the greater the polarity, the stronger the dipole |
|
Hydrogen Bond
|
-2nd strongest intermolecule force
-H attraction to F, N, O -Because H is so small, the attraction force is extremely strong |
|
London Dispersion Force
|
-weakest intermolecule force
-between non polar molecules -typical of gases - volitile |
|
Characteristics of Diamonds (Covalent Network Solids)
|
-very strong (big molecules)
