How many main types of bonds are there?
|
3
|
|
Ionic Bond
|
Between a metal and a nonmetal. In Ionic bonds, electrons are TRANSFERRED
|
|
Metallic Bond
|
Between a metal and a metal
|
|
Covalent Bond
|
Between nonmetals, electrons are SHARED
|
|
Valence Electrons
|
electrons on the outer shell of an atom
|
|
Octet Rule
|
All atoms "want" to obtain the electron configuration of a noble gas (8 valence electrons) except for Helium (2 valence electrons)
|
|
Lewis Dot Diagram
|
Dots to indicate the # of valence electrons in the outer shell
|
|
What is the type of force that holds ions together in an ionic compound?
|
electrostatic (opposites attract)
|
|
Why are ionic compounds such poor conductors in solid form? Why can they conduct when dissolved in water?
|
Ionic compounds are poor conductors in solid form because their bonds are very strong (strong attraction between + and - ions), so the electrons are unable to move and conduct. They can conduct in liquid form because the ions and electrons are free to move.
|
|
Four properties of ionic compounds are...
|
1. All solid at room temperature because they have strong bonds
2. Brittle 3. Bad conductors in solid form 4. Good conductors in liquid form |
|
Salt
|
ANY ionic compound
|
|
Halide
|
a salt that contains a halogen
|
|
Crystal Lattice
|
A repetitive arrangement of atoms in an ionic compound
|
|
Lewis Dot Diagram with Ionic Bonds

Review this
|
|
Metallic bonds must contain two different metals (T or F)
|
F, because they can contain atoms of the same metal OR atoms of two different metals
|
|
Properties of metals
|
Conducts electricity, conducts heat, malleable, ductile, luster, all silver except for gold and copper
|
|
In a metallic bond, the valence electrons form a...
|
roving sea of electrons
|
|
What is the roving sea of electrons?
|
It allows the movement of the valence electrons
|
|
In a metallic bond, the valence electrons "belong" to...
|
ALL of the metal atoms
|
|
What causes the metallic bond?
|
Electrons are free to roam, this creates a positively charged side and a negatively charged, which are attracted to one another, hence forming a bond
|
|
Alloy
|
solid metal solution made up of two or more elements
|
|
Covalent bond (more specific definition)
|
2 or more valence electrons are shared between two atoms
|
|
Single bond
|
1 pair of electrons are shared between two atoms
|
|
What creates a covalent bond?
|
Positively charged nucleus attracted to electrons of another atom
|
|
Electronegativity
|
attraction of one atom for the electrons of another in a bond (highest Electronegativity: F)
|
|
Nonpolar covalent bond
|
when electrons are equally shared between two atoms (they are in the middle)
|
|
Polar covalent bond
|
When electrons are unequally shared (One atom is closer to the electrons)
|
|
Dipole
|
When a bond or molecule has unequal sharing
|
|
The type of bond is determined by...
|
the difference in electronegativities (Ionic bonds, difference is greater than or equal to 2.1, Polar Covalent bonds have a difference greater than or equal to 0.5, but less than 2.1, and Nonpolar covalent bond have a difference of 0 to 0.5
|
|
How does a covalent bond differ from an ionic bond?
|
Convalent bonds have a sharing of electrons while ionic bonds have a transfer of electrons
|
|
Bond dissociation energy
|
the energy required to break the chemical bond between two atoms and separate them
|
|
Molecular shapes are based on...
|
VSEPR (Valence, Shell, Electron, Pair, and Repulsion (electrons want to be as far apart as possible)
|
|
In Lewis Structures, Hydrogen is always in the middle (T or F)
|
F, because hydrogen wants only 2 electrons
|
|
In Lewis Structures, Carbon is almost always in the middle (T or F)
|
T
|
|
Molecular Polarity depends on...
|
Electronegativity difference and the molecular shape
|
|
Bond Polarity depends on...
|
Electronegativity difference
|
|
Polarity only applies to...
|
Covalent bonds, any non-metal to non-metal
|
|
Intermolecular Forces
|
Forces between molecules, attraction that exists between molecules, weaker than a bond
|
|
Intramolecular Forces
|
Forces within molecules (Covalent bonds)
|
|
Hydrogen Bond
|
A form of dipole attraction in which a hydrogen atom bonded to a strongly electronegative atom is attracted to another electron rich atom
|
|
London Dispersion Force
|
An attraction between atoms and molecules caused by the formation of instantaneous dipoles in the atoms and molecules (Non-polar molecules attracted to other non-polar molecules)
|
|
Dipole Force (relating to intermolecular forces)
|
between two polar molecules
|
|
Hydrogen bonding
|
Strong type of dipole bond, always between Hydrogen and FON (Fluorine, Nitrogen, or Oxygen)
|
|
LDF's can have a strong total force when...
|
There are large amounts of LDF's
|
|
The larger the nonpolar molecule, the higher the ___________ because more electrons = more _______ = stronger force
|
boiling point, LDF's
|
|
Network Solids
|
No intermolecular forces, all covalent bonds, only compounds of pure Carbon and Silicon + Oxygen and others
|
|
Examples of Network Solids...
|
Graphite, Diamonds, Quartz (SiO2)
|
|
