Chemical Bonds Ch 20 What makes matter different!
Sect 1 Stability in Bonding • When elements combine to form a compound, the compound has properties very different from those of the elements that make it. • Ex. NaCl
Formulas • A compound ALWAYS has the same chemical formula. Ex. H2O • This tells the types and numbers of atoms making up the simplest unit of the compound. • This means the same elements in the same proportions • The same elements can combine in different ratios to form different compounds. Ex. H2O vs. H2O2
The goal and purpose of bonding is stability • Using electron dot diagrams and Bohr models, we are able to see how valence electrons are arranged. • What is the goal # for outer level electrons? • When outer levels are not at this number, they try to act in a way to fill that level.
Stability is Reached • When atoms gain, lose or share electrons, an attraction forms between the atoms that pulls them together to form a compound. • This attraction is called a chemical bond.
Section 2 Types of Bonds Chemical Bonds hold compounds together! In this section, we will discuss Ionic and Covalent bonds.
Gain or Loss of Electrons! • Chemical bonds between atoms involve the electrons. • Bonded atoms typically have a stable electron configuration. • They stabilize by forming ionic or covalent bonds.
Ionic Bonds • Ionic bonds are formed by the transfer of electrons • Ionic bonds form networks instead on “molecules” . In NaCl, the ratio is one (1) Na+ ion to one (1) Cl- in a “formula unit”. • The total charge is net zero (0). Ex. MgCl2,NaCl, KI,
Ionic Bonds • Ionic bonds form due to the attractive forces between the oppositely charged ions. • Ionic compounds are often crystalline solids with very high melting points. • They will also conduct electricity when dissolved in water.
Covalent Bonds • Atoms that are joined by covalent bonds, share electrons • The number of covalent bonds an atom can form is dependant upon the number of electrons available for sharing. • Covalent bonds: Single – 1 pair of shared electrons Double – 2 pair of shared electrons Triple – 3 pair of shared electrons
Covalent Bonds • Unequal sharing of electrons sometimes occurs in covalent bonds. • The strength of attraction of each atom to its electrons is related to the: 1. size of the atom 2. charge of the nucleus 3. the total number of electrons the atom contains
Covalent Bonds • You may think of this as an “unequal sharing of electrons” • This unequal sharing has a consequence of on part of the atom having a slight negative (-) charge and another part of the atom has a slight positive (+) charge. • This is called a polar molecule. Ex.H2O
