Chapter 7 Ionic and Metallic bonding
Chapter 7: Ionic and Metallic Bonding What is a chemical bond? • a mutual attraction between the nuclei and valence electrons of different atoms that bind the atoms together. • Why? REMEMBER: valence electrons are involved in bonding!! Types of Bonds • Ionic Bond an electrical attraction due to an exchange of electrons. • Covalent Bond a bond that results from the sharing of electrons. How do you determine the bond type? Bond Formation Bond Length Ionic Bond Covalent Electronegativity
Bond Type Using Electronegativities Nonpolar (0 – 0.3) Covalent Polar (0.3 – 1.7) Ionic Ionic (1.7 – 3.3) Covalent Bonds • atoms are joined by sharing of electrons. • Nonpolar-covalent: an equal sharing of electrons/an even distribution of electron clouds. • Polar-covalent: an unequal sharing of electrons/an uneven distribution of electron clouds.
Ionic Bonds: a bond that results from a mutual electrical attraction between a cation and an anion. Na + Cl “molecule”: a neutral group of atoms held together by covalent bonds. “diatomic molecule”: a molecule containing only two atoms. ex: O2, H2, N2
Electron Dot Diagrams • shows how an atom’s valence electrons become involved in bonding. Hydrogen (1 valence electron) Beryllium (2 valence electron) Nitrogen (5 valence electron) Carbon (4 valence electron) Oxygen (6 valence electron) Neon (8 valence electron)
Bonding site Unshared Pairs/ Lone Pairs Unshared pairs (lone pairs): a pair of electrons that are not involved in bonding (exclusive only to that atom). Lewis Structures Shows how atoms are bonded in a molecule. Draw the dot diagrams for each element first, then “connect the dots”.
Ex: H2O Ex: BF3 Ex: C2H4
Formation of Ionic Compounds Formation of Ionic Compounds What is the electrical charge of an ionic compound?
Formation of Ionic Compounds Sodium chloride, or table salt, is an ionic compound consisting of sodium cations and chloride anions. • An ionic compound is a compound composed of cations and anions.
Formation of Ionic Compounds Although they are composed of ions, ionic compounds are electrically neutral. • The total positive charge of the cations equals the total negative charge of the anions.
Formation of Ionic Compounds Anions and cations have opposite charges and attract one another by means of electrostatic forces. • The electrostatic forces that hold ions together in ionic compounds are called ionic bonds.

Ionic Bonds Formation of Ionic Compounds When sodium and chlorine react to form a compound, the sodium atom transfers its one valence electron to the chlorine atom. • Sodium and chlorine atoms combine in a one-to-one ratio, and both ions have stable octets.
Formation of Ionic Compounds Ionic Bonds Aluminum metal (Al) and the nonmetal bromine (Br2) react violently to form the ionic solid aluminum bromide (AlBr3). • Each bromine atom has seven valence electrons and readily gains one additional electron. • Three bromine atoms combine with each aluminum atom.
Formation of Ionic Compounds Formula Units A chemical formula shows the numbers of atoms of each element in the smallest representative unit of a substance. • NaCl is the chemical formula for sodium chloride.
Formation of Ionic Compounds Formula Units Ionic compounds do not exist as discrete units, but as collections of positively and negatively charged ions arranged in repeating patterns.
Formation of Ionic Compounds Formula Units The chemical formula of an ionic compound refers to a ratio known as a formula unit. • A formula unit is the lowest whole-number ratio of ions in an ionic compound.

Properties of Ionic Compounds Properties of Ionic Compounds What are three properties of ionic compounds?
Properties of Ionic Compounds Most ionic compounds are crystalline solids at room temperature. • The component ions in such crystals are arranged in repeating three-dimensional patterns. The beauty of crystalline solids comes from the orderly arrangement of their component ions.
Properties of Ionic Compounds Each ion is attracted strongly to each of its neighbors, and repulsions are minimized. • The large attractive forces result in a very stable structure.
Ionic compounds generally have high melting points. Properties of Ionic Compounds

Would you expect to find sodium chloride in underground rock deposits as a solid, liquid, or gas? Explain. Sodium chloride is found in underground rock deposits as a solid. Like most ionic compounds, sodium chloride has a high melting point (about 800°C).
Properties of Ionic Compounds The coordination number of an ion is the number of ions of opposite charge that surround the ion in a crystal. • In NaCl, each ion has a coordination number of 6. • The coordination number of Na+ is 6 because each Na+ ion is surrounded by six Cl– ions. • The coordination number of Cl– is also 6 because each Cl– ion is surrounded by six Na+ ions.
Properties of Ionic Compounds In CsCl, each ion has a coordination number of 8. • Each Cs+ ion is surrounded by eight Cl– ions. • Each Cl– ion is surrounded by eight Cs+ ions.
Properties of Ionic Compounds Titanium dioxide (TiO2), or rutile, forms tetragonal crystals. • The coordination number for the cation (Ti4+) is 6. • Each Ti4+ ion is surrounded by six O2– ions. • The coordination number of the anion (O2–) is 3. • Each O2– ion is surrounded by three Ti4+ ions.
