  1. Chemical Bonds & Reactions - + + -

  2. Chemical Bond • A force of attraction that holds two atoms together • Has a significant effect on chemical and physical properties of compounds • involves the valence electrons Valence Electrons – the electrons in the outermost energy level of an atom This Lithium Atom has one valence electron

  3. Lewis Structure(Electron Dot Diagram) • a way of drawing the outer energy level electrons (valence) of an atom • The symbol for the element surrounded by as many dots as there are electrons in its outer energy level (valence) • Examples How many valence electrons do each of these atoms have?

  4. Oxidation Number • The charge that an atom would have if it lost or gained electrons; ionic charge • Can be helpful in determining which atoms will interact or bond with each other • Example: According to electron dot diagram for Magnesium, it has two valence electrons. Because Magnesium is “unhappy” with two, it will typically lose them. If this happens it will turn into a Magnesium ion. At this point it will have an oxidation number of +2. 2+ Mg

  5. H O Ne Sr What Could the Oxidation Number Be? +1 or -1 because it can gain or lose one electron -2 because it will gain two electrons 0 because it will not gain or lose electrons +2 because it will lose two electrons

  6. 3 Types of Chemical Bonds • Ionic • Covalent • Metallic What can you describe about each of these bonds just by looking at the name?

  7. The force of attraction between oppositely charged ions. Occurs after a transfer or loss/gain of electrons Usually form between atoms of metals and atoms of non-metals Resulting compounds have a name that usually ends in –ide IONIC BONDS 1+ 1- Na Cl Which different groups or families of elements will most-likely interact to create these types of bonds? - Example - Sodium Chloride (NaCl)

  8. + + O + + + + H + + H COVALENT BOND • A force that bonds two atoms together by a sharing of electrons • Each pair of shared electrons creates a bond • Usually occurs between atoms of non-metals - - - - - + + - - - - - Example – Water (H2O)

  10. Molecule A neutral group of two or more non-metal atoms held together by covalent bonds Type: Diatomic - molecules consisting of two atoms of the same element bonded together Examples: H2,F2, O2, N2 Compound A pure substance composed of two or more different elements (atoms) that are chemically combined Examples: CO, NO2, NaCl Results of Bonding

  11. Chemical Reaction • The process by which a chemical change occurs • Atoms are rearranged, and chemical bonds are broken and reformed • One or more substances change to produce one or more different substances • Types • Synthesis (creating) • Decomposition (separating) • Combustion (burning) • Displacement/Replacement (switching) What does H2 & O2 gas create? Out of the four types of reactions, which would describe the chemical reaction taking place to the right? H2 O2

  12. Physical Change • a change in shape, size, color, or state • a change without a change in chemical composition • a change that is reversible Examples tearing paper cutting your hair change in state Physical changes are not indicative of a chemical reaction

  13. Chemical Change • a change in which a substance becomes another substance having different properties • a change that is not reversible using ordinary physical means • Changes that usually cause, heat, sound, light, odor, fizzing/foaming, color changes You usually need more than one of the above characteristics to be considered a chemical change! Examples mixing vinegar & baking soda burning a piece of wood soured milk

  14. Chemical Equation • Shorthand form for writing what reactants are used and what products are formed in a chemical reaction • Sometimes shows whether energy is produced or absorbed • Examples: 2H2 + O2 2H2O CH4 + 2O2  CO2  +  2H2O C6H12O6 + 6O2 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy

  15. Components of a Chemical Equation Chemical Formulas Chemical Formula  2H2 + O2 2H2O Subscript Coefficient Coefficient Subscripts (Yield) (Products) (Reactants) Sometimes you will see a “yields” sign that looks like this. What do you think it means?

  16. Exothermic Reaction A chemical reaction in which energy is released. The products have greater bond energy than the reactants C6H12O6 + 6O2 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy (respiration) Endothermic Reaction A chemical reaction in which energy is absorbed. The products have lower bond energies than the reactants CO2 + H2O + energy  C6H12O6 + O2 (photosynthesis) Energy and Chemical Reactions

  17. Rates of Chemical Reactions The rates at which chemical reactions can take place are based on the interaction (collisions) between the different particles. These rates can be impacted by the following: • Temperature –a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a sample of matter • Ex. Increasing the temperature when cooking • Surface area – amount of material that comes into contact with the reactants • Ex. Cutting a potato into smaller pieces when cooking • Concentration – amount of substance per volume • Ex. Turning the valve on a gas stove to increase the concentration of methane molecules • Catalysts (enzymes) – organic substances that help speed up chemical reactions, but are not consumed in the reaction

  18. Proposed by Antoine Lavoisier In a chemical reaction, atoms are neither created nor destroyed All atoms present in the reactants are also present in the products Chemical equations must account for/show the conservation of mass  balancing equations Law of Conservation of Mass In its present form, does this chemical equation show a conservation of mass? 2 H2 + O2  2 H2O Reactants Products How would you balance this equation to show the conservation of mass? H  2 O  2 H  2 O  1 4 2 4 2

  19. Hints For Balancing Equations • Count the atoms • List the number of atoms of each element to see which elements must be balanced • Use a coefficient to add atoms to one side of the equation • Start with the reactant or product that has the greatest number of different elements • Add a coefficient to another reactant or product • Make sure that the coefficients in your balanced equation are the smallest whole numbers possible (they should have no common factor other than one)
