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)
Ionic Bonds have a strength of...
85
Metallic bonds have a strength of...
65
Network solids have a strength of
100 (the highest)
Hydrogen Bonds have a strength of
5
Dipoles have a strength of
1
LDF's have a strength of
0.1
Which substance has a stronger bond? NaCl or H2O?
NaCl, because it is an ionic bond with a strength of 85
Fe or CH4
Fe, because it is a metallic bond
The stronger the bond, the higher the ____________ and the ___________
melting point and boiling point
Noble gasses are what type of forces?
LDF's
Why are valence electrons important?
They determine the chemical properties of an element and they are the electrons involved in bonding
