chemical bond
a link between atoms that results from the mutual electrical attractions between the nuclei and valence electrons of both atoms
ionic bond
*a chemical bond resulting from the electrical attraction btwn. large numbers of + and - ions.
The TRANSFER of electrons
*becomes larger when combined
covalent bond
*a chemical bond resulting from the SHARING of electron pairs btwn two atoms
*remains the same size when share
impure bonds
bonds that range in btwn ionic and covalent
ionic bonds electronegativity
range
1.7-4.0
polar covalent electronegativity range
1.7-0.3
nonpolar covalent electronegativity range
0.0-0.3
polar covalent bond
a covalent bond where the united atoms have an UNEQUAL attraction for the shared electrons
nonpolar covalent bond
a covalent bond in which the bonding electrons are shared EQUALLY by bonded atoms with a resulting balanced distribution of charge.
metallic bonds
metals give up electrons but unlike ionic bonds give up an e- and then share them equally
ionic compound
composed of positive and negative ions combined so that the positive and negative charges are equal
formula unit
simplest collection of atoms from which a compound's formula can be established
lattice energy
the energy released when one mole of of an ionic crystalline compound is formed from gaseous ions
*larger the energy released the STRONGER THE BOND
molecule
the smallest unit quantity of matter which can exist by itself and retain all the properties of the original substance
diatomic molecules
a molecule made up of two atoms
molecular compound
a chemical compound whose simplest units are molecules
*made up of COVALENT bonds
chemical formula
indicates the relative number of each kind of atom in a compound using symbols and subscripts
molecular formula
indicates the relative number of each kind of atom in a MOLECULAR COMPOUND using symbols and subscripts
bond energy
the energy required to break a chemical bond and form neutral atoms
*units are kj/mol
bond length
the average distance btwn. two bonded atoms
octet rule
chemical compounds will form so that each atom by gaining, losing or sharing electrons, has an octet of electrons in its highest occupied level.
expanded valence
when elements have more than 8 in their outer shell
unshared pair
*also called lone pairs
*a pair of electrons that is not involved in bonding but instead belongs exclusively to one atom
structural formula
indicates the kind, number, arrangement, and bonds, but not the unshared pairs of the atoms in a molecule.
isomers
compounds that have the smae formula but a different structure
single bond
sharing a single pair of electrons
double bond
sharing two pairs of electrons
triple bond
sharing three pairs of electrons
*the strongest and hardest bond to break(as compared to single and double)
covalent networking bonds
a continous 3-D network of several different atoms
polyatomic ions
a charged group of covalently bonded atoms
resonance
refers to the bonding in molecules that cannot be correctly represented by a single lewis structure
*occurs with double and triple bonds
central atom
written first in the formulas
Ex. S=C=S
Carbon is central atom
Formula--CS2
NM+NM=
covalent bond
M+M=
metallic bond
M+NM=
ionic bond
Electrons are delocalized?
*electrons are free to move
*highly mobile
Metallic bond def.
a chemical bond resulting from the attraction between metal atoms and surrounding mobile electrons
heat of vaporization
amount of heat needed to change a metal from a solid to a gas
VSEPR theory
describes where the bonded atoms are in realation to one another. used for predicting molecular geometry
VSEPR stands for...
Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion
VSEPR theory states...
repusion btwn the set of valence level electron pairs surrounding an atom causes these sets to be oriented as far apart as possible.
Hybridization
the mixing of two or more atomic orbitals of similar energies on the same atom to produce new orbitals of equal energy.
Hybrid orbitals
orbitals of equal energy produced by the combination of two or more orbitals on the same atom.
AB2
linear
AB2E
bent
AB3
trigonal planar
AB4
tetrahedral
AB3E
trigonal pyramidal
AB2E2
bent
AB5
trigonal bipyramidal
AB6
octahedral
intermolecular forces
the forces of attraction between molecules
dipole
equal but opposite charges separated by a short distance. always points toward the more electronegative
dipole-dipole forces
forces of attraction between polar molecules
induction
a polar molecule can induce a dipole in a non-polar molecule.
hydrogen bonding
an intermolecular attraction btwn a hydrogen atom and an unshared pair of electrons on a strongly electronegative atom in another molecule
London Dispersion Forces
intermolecular attractions resulting from the constant motion of electrons and the creation of instantaneous dipoles and induced dipoles
