Some compounds are IONIC - electrons are TRANSFERRED from a metal to a nonmetal; the compound is held together ELECTROSTATICALLY Coulomb’s Law: force = k (n+)(n-)/d2
e- + + e- E. g. carbon dioxide Some compounds are COVALENT - electrons are SHARED between two atoms This commonly occurs for two or more NONMETALS
Ions • An atom or group of atoms with a net charge caused by the net loss or gain of electrons • CATION = positively charged ion • ANION = negatively charged ion
Predicting Whether an Atom Will Form a Cation or Anion in Order to Make an Ionic Compound Metals LOSE electrons to form CATIONS, nonmetals GAIN electrons to form ANIONS
Valence Electrons in Ionic Compounds • The A-group (representative) elements follow the OCTET RULE; they obtain an inert gas valence (outer) shell that contains 8 electrons • Metals - lose # electrons = group numbere.g. Ca Ca2+ + 2e- (Ar outer shell) • Nonmetals - gain electrons = 8 - group #e.g. N + 3e- N3- (Ne outer shell)
Valence Electrons for Covalent Compounds • Covalent compounds form between two or more nonmetals • In this case the nonmetals can either LOSE all of their valence electrons,or - • GAIN enough electrons to obtain an OCTET
Examples - SO3 - oxygen (VIA) gains 8-6 = 2 O2- ion forms - sulfur (VIA) loses all 6 S6+ ion forms NOTE: There is a rule that states that oxygen is ALWAYS -2. These rules are coming up!
Example 3.3 - Predicting Ion Charges When Forming Ionic Compounds • Metals lose electrons, Nonmetals gain them • Al = group IIIA metal, so LOSES 3 ELECTRONS Al Al3+ + 3e- • S = group VIA nonmetal, so GAINS 8 - 6 = 2 ELECTRONS S + 2e- S2-
Polyatomic Ions • Contains 2 or more atoms COVALENTLY bonded, and the complete unit contains a net charge, e.g. nitrate, NO3-
Polyatomic Ion Examples NO2-, CO32-, SO42-, PO43- NO2-ion CO32-ion
Compound held together electrostatically Very strong forces hold the lattice together, so ionic cmpd’s have very high melting points NaCl crystal latticem.p. = 800 oC Ionic Compound = Metal + Nonmetal or a Metal + Polyatomic Ion
Predicting Formulas of Ionic Compounds Balance positive and negative charges to produce a neutral molecule Ca2+ + Cl- Ca2+ + CO32-Ca2+ + PO43-Al3+ + O2-
Oxidation Numbers • A number assigned to each element in a compound in order to keep track of the electrons during a reaction Mg2+ = +2 Cl- = -1 O2- = -2 N3- = -3
Rules for Assigning Oxidation Numbers(Chap. 5, p. 207) Rules higher up take precedence over lower rules • The O.N. for an atom in its pure, uncombined state = 0. • The sum of the O.N.’s for a neutral molecule = 0. For a polyatomic ion, the sum = charge.
Rules cont’d • Group IA = +1Group IIA = +2 • H = +1 UNLESS combined with IA or IIA, then = -1 • Oxygen = -2 • For binary ionic compounds only -Group VA = -3Group VIA = -2Group VIIA = -1
Examples • P4 • Al2O3 • MnO4- • NaH • Na2SO3 • Mg3N2
Chemical Nomenclature Examples (More Detail in Lab) • Ionic Compounds NaCl sodium chloride Al2S3 aluminum sulfide FeSO4 iron(II) sulfate KClO3 potassium chlorate • Covalent Compounds SO2 sulfur dioxide P2O5 diphosphorus pentaoxide N2O dinitrogen oxide
The Mole - The mole is the chemist’s counting unit pair = 2 Dozen = 12 Gross = 144 Ream = 500 Avogadro’s Number (NA) = 6.022 X 1023
By definition, 12C = 12.000 amu How many particles does it take to have 12.000 grams of 12C ? NA = 6.022 X 1023 (as determined by experiment) Where Does Avogadro’s Number Come From?
Significance of the Mole Mass in amu’s Mass in grams/mole NA of carbon atoms weighs NA of iron atoms weighs
Molar Mass - the mass in grams of one mole of any element • Molar mass of sodium (Na) = mass of 1 mol of Na atoms = 22.99 g/mol = mass of 6.022 X 1023 Na atoms • Molar mass of lead (Pb) = mass of 1 mol of Pb atoms = 207.2 g/mol = mass of 6.022 X 1023 Pb atoms
Moles to Mass Mass to Moles moles • grams = grams 1 mole grams • 1 mole = moles grams Molar mass 1 / Molar mass Mass Moles Conversion

Mole Calculation Using Density The graduated cylinder in the photograph contains 25.0 cm3 of Hg. If the density of Hg = 13.534 g/cm3 at 25 oC, how many moles of Hg are in the cylinder? How many atoms of Hg are there?

Empirical & Molecular Formulas Empirical = simplest ratio of atoms in the molecules Molecular = actual ratio
Calculating Empirical Formulas Formulas of unknown compounds are determined from the percent composition of each element by mass. Assume 100 g and divide by atomic weight Divide by fewest number of moles
Calculating Molecular Formulas The molecular weight must be known. It is obtained from a separate experiment Benzene empirical formula = CHformula weight = 12.01 + 1.008 = 13.018 If the MW = 78.11, then what is the molecular formula?
