A Bit of Review • Valence electrons • Only electrons in the s and p sublevels count! • Most atoms will gain or lose electrons in order to get a full valence electron shell • The number of valence electrons in a neutral atom can be found from the periodic table!! \ • Octet “rule”: Most elements need 8 e- to have a full valence electron shell • Some major exceptions: • H and He (2 valence e-)
Let’s bond Bond: • Ionic • Ionic: Pertaining to or occurring in the form of ions • Bond: something that binds, fastens, confines, or holds together • Must be both a cation and an anion present • Total charge is zero
Let’s bond Co valent together or shared valence electrons Nonmetals will SHARE electrons in order to fool themselves into thinking they have a full valence electron shell nonmetal and nonmetal

Writing Lewis Dot Structures for Molecular Compounds • General Rules: • “Central” atoms will be surrounded other atoms • The element with the least complete valence shell tends to be the central atom HUH?!?!?!

Writing Lewis Dot Structures for Molecular Compounds • General Rules: • “Central” atoms will be surrounded other atoms • The element with the least complete valence shell or least electronegative tends to be the central atom • Must be at least one bond to each atom • # of valence e- short = # of bonds formed nitrogen has 5 valence e- so needs 3 more to be full chlorine has 7 valence e- so needs 1 more to be full 3 1 nitrogen tends to form 3 bonds chlorine tends to form 1 bonds 3 1 THIS IS ONLY A GUIDELINE!!!!!!

Shapes of Molecules • Electron pairs surrounding an atom repel each other. This is referred to as Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion (VSEPR) theory. • NOT based on how many electron pair there are, but where they are. • Where they are: electron domains (charge clouds) HUH?!?!?!
Shapes of Molecules What counts as an electron domain? 1) A connection between the atom of interest and any other atom a) single, double, and triple bonds each count one electron domain 2) A lone pair on the atom of interest 2 electron domains 4 electron domains 4 electron domains 4 electron domains 4 electron domains 2 electron domains 3 electron domains 3 electron domains
Shapes of Molecules • The molecular shape gives the arrangement of only the atoms around the central atom as a result of electron repulsion. (just the atoms) • The electron pair geometry gives the arrangement of atoms AND the lone pair electrons around the central atom.
Linear Molecules • In carbon dioxide, CO2, the central C atom has two atoms attached (the 2 oxygen atoms) and has no lone pair. • 2 electron domains • The electron pair geometry is linear. • The molecular shape is linear. • Bond angle is 180o
Trigonal Planar • In formaldehyde, H2CO, the central C atom has three atoms attached (2 hydrogen and 1 oxygen) and has no lone pair. • 3 electron domains • The electron pair geometry is trigonal planar. • The molecular shape is trigonal planar. • Bond angle is 120o
Trigonal Planar • In sulfur dioxide, SO2, the central S atom has two atoms attached (2 oxygens) and has one lone pair. • 3 electron domains • The electron pair geometry is trigonal planar. • The molecular shape is bent. • Bond angle is 120o
Tetrahedral • In water, H2O, the central O atom has two atoms attached (2 hydrogen atoms) and has two lone pair. • 4 electron domains • The electron pair geometry is tetrahedral. • The molecular shape is bent. • Bond angle is ~109.5o (~104.5o actually)
Tetrahedral • In ammonia, NH3, the central N atom has three atoms atached (3 hydrogen atoms) and has one lone pair. • 4 electron domains • The electron pair geometry is tetrahedral. • The molecular shape is trigonal pyramidal. • Bond angle is ~109.5o (~107o actually)
Tetrahedral • In methane, CH4, the central C atom has four atoms attached (4 hydrogen atoms) and has no lone pair. • 4 electron domains • The electron pair geometry is tetrahedral. • The molecular shape is tetrahedral. • Bond angle is 109.5o
Let’s bond Co valent together or shared valence electrons Nonmetals will SHARE electrons in order to fool themselves into thinking they have a full valence electron shell If “X” and “Y” share bonding e- equally: If “X” and “Y” do NOT share bonding e- equally: Unequal sharing of bonding e- leads to polar covalent bonds
N S Polar Covalent Bonds Polar: having poles One end opposite from the other
Polar Covalent Bonds Polar covalent bonds reslut from differences in electronegativity. HUH?!?!?! Electronegativity: The ability of an atom to pull BONDING electrons towards itself.
Polar Covalent Bonds If EN difference is: < 0.5 the bond is considered to be nonpolar 2.5-2.5=0 2.5-2.5=0 2.8-2.8=0 2.5-2.1=0.4 ≥0.5 the bond is considered to be polar 3.5-2.5=1 4.0-2.1=1.9 3.0-2.5=0.5 3.5-1.8=1.7
Delta (δ) Notation for Polar Bonds • The lowercase Greek letter delta, d, is used to indicate a polar bond. • The MORE EN element has extra e-, so it is negative and is indicated by the symbol d–. • The LESS EN element is short of e-, so it is positive and is indicated by the symbol d+. 2.1 3.0 H–Cl • d– • d+
Polar Covalent Bonds Give delta notation and polarity arrows for the following: • d+ • d– • d+ • d– • d+ • d– • d+ • d– 3.5 1.8 3.0 2.5 2.5 3.5 4.0 2.1
Nonpolar Molecules with Polar Bonds • CCl4 has polar bonds, but the overall molecule is nonpolar • Using VSEPR theory, the four chlorine atoms are at the four corners of a tetrahedron
Nonpolar Molecules with Polar Bonds • The chlorines are each δ–, while the carbon is δ+. • The net effect of the polar bonds is zero, so the molecule is nonpolar.
