STRUCTURES AND PROPERTIES OF SUBSTANCES CHAPTER 4
CHEMICAL BONDING • Only noble gases exist naturally as single, uncombinedatoms. • All other atoms: combined. CHEMICAL BONDS: Electrostatic forces that hold atoms together in compounds. - In nature, systems of lower energy (more stable) tend to be favoured over system of higher energy (less stable). - Bonded atoms tend to have lower energies(ie. more favourable!)
LEWIS STRUCTURES (Review) Chemical bonding involves the interaction of valenceelectrons(outermost electrons) • Lets you see exactly how many electrons are involved in the bond helps you keep track of the number of valence electrons. • Two ways to show bonding pairs of electrons: (Dots represent a lone pair (non-bonding pair) of electrons.)
IONIC BONDING • Force of attraction between oppositely charged ions. • Occurs between atoms with large differences in electronegativity(why is this? Periodic Table!) • Ionic solid: arranged in a specific sequence of repeating units – minimum possible energy. • Atoms of ionic compounds usually come from s and p blocks.
PPs, pg. 165 #1-4
PROPERTIES OF IONIC SOLIDS • Crystalline with smooth, shiny surfaces • Hard but brittle • Non-conductors of electricity and heat • High melting points • Many are soluble in water
LATTICE ENERGY AND IONIC BONDING • Lattice energy: the amount of energy given off when ionic crystal forms from the gaseous ions of its elements. Example: MgF2 has lattice energy= 2957 kJ/mol • Same amount of energy needed to break up the ionic crystal. • Compounds with larger lattice energies have higher melting points.
COVALENT BONDING • Balance between forces of attraction and repulsion that act between the nuclei and electrons of two or more atoms. • Optimum separation for atoms at which nucleus-electron attractions, nucleus-nucleus repulsions, and electron-electron repulsions achieve a balance. • Results in the sharing of pairs of electrons. • Formation of new Orbital: overlapping of atomic orbitals. • Lower energy levels than original atomic orbitals.
Characteristics of Covalent Bonding • In most cases, covalent bonding allows atoms to acquire noble gas configurations. • Hydrogen must fill its s orbital. • Carbon must fill its 2s and three 2p orbitals.
Bond Energy • Energy required to break the force of attraction between two atoms in a bond and to separate them. • Measures the strength of a bond. • Increase in bond energy due to increase of (-) charge in between the two nuclei. Therefore, nuclei are more attracted to the overlap orbital.
PREDICTING IONIC AND COVALENT BONDS Using Physical Properties Covalent (molecular) compounds: • Exist as a soft solid, liquid, or a gas at RT. • Low melting and boiling points • Poor conductors of electricity • May not be soluble in water. Using Formula of the Compound • Two atoms with identical electronegativitiesshare electrons equally. Therefore, the bond is _______________________. • Very different electronegativities– one atom attracts electrons more. For example, sodium chloride – sodium’s valence electron has a very high probability of being found near sodium. This bond is ________________. • Electron is not actually not ‘lost’, ‘gained,’ or transferred. • “bonding contiuum”
Metals Properties: • Conduct electricity and heat in both solid and liquid states. • Malleable and ductile. Bonding • Difference in electronegativities not large enough to form ionic bonds. • Do not have a sufficient number of valence electrons to form covalent bonds with one another. • Electrons are shared – but different than covalent.
Metallic Bond • Metals composed of densely packed core of cations. • Electrons are shared and mobile – can move throughout metal. • Force of attraction between the positively charged cations and the pool of valence electrons that move among them metallic bond.
Properties of Metals and the Free-Electron Model • Conductivity (heat and electricity): electrons can move freely throughout the metallic structure. • Malleability and Ductility: metallic bonds are non-directional. Cations can slide over one another. • Melting and Boiling Points: Group 1 metals have lower melting and boiling points of Group 2 greater number of valence electrons and larger positive charge = stronger metallic bonding forces. • Transition metals: generally high melting and boiling points.
SR, page. 171 #1, 2-7.
Co-ordinate Covalent Bonds • When one atom contributes both of the electrons to the shared pair. • Occurs when a filled atomic orbital overlaps with an empty atomic orbital. • Behaves in the same way as any other single covalent bond.
Resonance Structures: More than one Possible Lewis Structure • Bonds between S and O are identical: two “one-and-a-half” bonds. • Resonance structures are combinations – hybrids – if its two resonance structures. • Does NOT shift back and forth between bonds. • Resonance structures: models that give the same relative position of atoms as in Lewis structures, but show different places for their bonding and lone pairs.
PPs, page 177 #9-12.
Central Atom with an Expanded Valence Level • Expanded valence energy level: bonding in some molecules is best explained by a model that shows more than eight electrons in the valence energy level of the central atom. • Experimental evidence suggests that larger atoms can accommodate additional valence electrons because of their size. • Sometimes, must violate the octet rule to allow for more than four bonds around a central atom.
PPs, pg. 178 #14-17
Shapes and Polarity of Molecules • Lewis structures do not communicate any information about a molecule’s shape. • VSEPR (Valence-Shell Electron-Pair Repulsion) Theory: • Bonding pairs and lone pairs of electrons repel one another. • Lone pair (LP) will spread out more than a bond pair repulsion is greatest between lone pairs (LP – LP) • Bonding pairs (BP) are more localized between nuclei, so spread out less. BP-BP repulsions are smaller than LP-LP repulsions. • Repulsion between BP and LP is intermediate.
Electron-Group Arrangements When all electron groups are bonding pairs, a molecule will have one of these shapes. If there are lone pairs, variations of these result.
Molecular Geometry Shape of molecule depends on electron pairs.
PPs, 185 #18-22
Molecular Shape and Polarity Recall: For diatomic molecules: bond polarity is also the molecule’s polarity. Dipole: term used to describe the charge separation for an entire molecule. Molecular Polarity/Molecular Shape Table: • A: central atom • X: more electronegative than A. • Y: more electronegative than X.

4.3 – Intermolecular Forces in Liquids and Solids Intramolecular Forces: forces exerted within a molecule or polyatomic ion. Intermolecular Forces: forces of attraction and repulsion that act between molecules or ions. • also called ‘van der Waals forces.’ • Dipole-dipole forces • Ion-dipole forces • Induced dipole forces • Dispersion forces • Hydrogen bonding
Dipole-Dipole Forces • Polar molecules (dipoles) in liquid form orient themselves so that oppositely charged ends are near to one another. • Polar molecules will tend to attract one another more at room temperature than similarly sized non-polar molecules would. • More energy required to separate polar molecules than non-polar of similar molar mass. • Higher melting and boiling points.
Ion-Dipole Forces • Force of attraction between an ion and a dipole. • Reason why most ionic solids are soluble.
Induced Intermolecular Forces • Induced by charge • Ion-induced dipole force: • When an ion in close proximity to a non-polar molecule distorts the electron density of the non-polar molecule. • Molecule becomes temporarily polarized two species are attracted to each other • Dipole-induced dipole force: • Charge on polar molecule induces the charge on a non-polar molecule.
Dispersion (London) Forces • Shared pairs of electrons in covalent bonds are constantly vibrating. • Bond vibrations cause momentary, uneven distributions of charge. • Act between any particles. • Factors of Magnitude: • Number of electrons: larger molecules, more uneven distribution of charge. Raise boiling point. • Shape of molecule: sphere has less surface area than linear molecule. More linear molecules have higher boiling points than spherical.
Hydrogen Bonding • Strong form of dipole-dipole attraction that exists between a hydrogen atom in a polar-bonded molecule that contains bonds such as H-O, H-N, H-F, and an unshared pair of electrons on another small, electronegative atom such as O, N, or F. • Small, electronegative atom can be on its own, but is usually bonded in a molecule. • H-bond is about 5% as strong as a single covalent bond strength in numbers. • Ex// DNA
Hydrogen bonding and properties of water • Why is water less dense in a solid state than in a liquid state? • Water molecules align in a specific pattern so that hydrogen atoms of one molecule are oriented toward the oxygen atom of another molecule. • If water molecules behave as most molecules do, lake water would freeze from the bottom up floating ice insulates the water beneath it. • Polar covalent compounds are soluble in water • Ex// alcohols (O-H bonds), ammonia (N-H bonds), small mass amines (N-H), etc.
Bonding in solids • Crystalling solids: organized particle arrangements with distinct shapes: gemstones, etc. • Amorphous solids: indistinct shapes: particle arrangements lack order: glass and rubber.
Crystalline solids: 5 types • Atomic • Molecular • Network • Ionic • Metallic
