  2. Bell Work • Good morning! Today is October 14. I hope you all had a great Fall Break! We are now on Chapter 20, Section 1 (page 602 in your book). Please get started on the Bell Work quietly. • 1). Explain why some elements are stable on their own while others are more stable in compounds? • 2). Describe why chemical bonding occurs. Give two examples of how bonds can form. • 3). Compare and contrast the properties of the individuals elements that combine to make salt with the compound salt. (NaCl)

  3. Answers • 1). If an element has eight electrons in its outer electron energy level, it has a tendency not to react. • 2). Electrons are either gained, lost, or shared between atoms. • 3). Sodium, as an elements, is a solid metal. Chlorine is a gas. When the two combine to form sodium chloride, they form a solid compound.

  4. Warm Up • Sodium is in group one of the periodic table. A sodium atom has one valence electron. Atoms with one electron in their outer energy levels will bond easily with atoms having 7 valence electrons. Name one element sodium could give its one extra electron to.

  5. Combining Elements • Many elements exist around you in their uncombined forms, but elements can unite chemically to form compounds when conditions are right

  6. Combining Elements • Compounds often have properties unlike the properties of their individual elements

  7. Combining Elements • A Chemical Formulatells what elements a compound contains and the exact number of atoms of each element in a unit of the compound

  8. Combining Elements • A subscript is written after and below the element’s symbol • Subscripts tell how many atoms are in each unit of a compound NH3

  9. Atomic Stability • An atom is chemically stable when its outer energy level is complete (like the Noble Gases) • Other elements are more stable when they can complete their outer energy levels by becoming part of a compound

  10. Atomic Stability • The Octet Rulesays that atoms tend to combine so they have 8 electrons in their outer energy level • Atoms can gain, lose, or share electrons to complete their outer energy levels and become stable • Gaining, losing, and sharing electrons forms an attraction between atoms

  11. Atomic Stability • The attraction is called a Chemical Bond, and atoms are pulled together, forming a compound

  12. Atomic Stability • Generally, ionic bonds are formed between a metal and a nonmetal, and covalent bonds are formed between two or more nonmetals • Electronegativity is the ability of atoms to attract electrons within a bond – this determines the bond type
