2. 1/2

3. Lesson 1 – Chemical Bonding

4. Chemical Bonding • Demo… • Hydrogen balloon • Methane Balloon • Carbon dioxide balloon • Hydrogen burning in oxygen • Questions… • What can you tell Mr C about the density of hydrogen and carbon dioxide? • What are the boiling points of… • Water • Hydrogen • Carbon dioxide • Methane

5. Experiment… • Measure melting point of • Salol • Solder (tin/lead) • Salt • Use mercury of IR thermometer • Questions… • What are the melting points of the compounds above? • Which compound has the strongest bonds between atoms? • What can you tell Mr C about the strength of bonds between, • A pair of CO2 atoms • A pair of methane atoms

6. Task… • You will be investigating chemical bonding… • Draw a series of diagrams to show how a chlorine atom bonds with a sodium atom, • You must include… • Atomic structures (showing the electrons) of sodium and chlorine atoms before they bond • Atomic structures (showing the electrons) of sodium and chlorine atoms after they bond • An indication of where electrons move during the bonding process. • Use Longman foundation 2, page 148-149 to help. • Use A3 paper as groups, then complete a neat version individually, after Mr. C has checked your work. Extension: • Draw diagrams to show how (a) Lithium Fluoride, and, (b) Lithium oxide bonds

7. Ionic Bonding Sodium has 1 electron in its outer shell Chlorine has 7 electrons in its outer shell, or you could say that it has one space in its outer shell. They both want full outer shells, so, Sodium will loose an electron and gives it to chlorine… So… Sodium has a positive charge Chlorine has a negative charge They are attracted together

8. Ionic bonding This is where a metal bonds with a non-metal (usually). Instead of sharing the electrons one of the atoms “_____” one or more electrons to the other. For example, consider sodium and chlorine: Sodium has 1 electron on its outer shell and chlorine has 7, so if sodium gives its electron to chlorine they both have a ___ outer shell and are ______. Na Cl + - A _______ charged sodium ion A _________ charged chloride ion Cl Na As opposed to covalent bonds, ionic bonds form strong forces of attraction between different ions due to their opposite ______, causing GIANT IONIC STRUCTURES to form (e.g sodium chloride) with ______ melting and boiling points:

12. MP ~ 800˚C Lesson 2 – Giant Structures • What is the melting point of sodium chloride? • What is the name of the bond between a sodium atom and a chlorine atom? • Ionic bonds (transfer of electrons) • Strong, • This means that the melting point is high as you need a lot of energy to break the strong bonds between atoms.

13. MP ~ 800˚C Task… • Make your own sodium chloride structure… • Colour 8 cubes green, these are the chlorine atoms • Colour 8 cubes grey, these are the sodium atoms • Using the art straws and sellotape, make a model of the structure of sodium chloride

15. Covalent Bonding • So far...

16. Notice that hydrogen has just __ electron in its outer shell. A full (inner) shell would have __ electrons, so two hydrogen atoms get together and “_____” their electrons: Now they both have a ____ outer shell and are more _____. The formula for this molecule is H2. When two or more atoms bond by sharing electrons we call it ____________ BONDING. This type of bonding normally occurs between _______ atoms. It causes the atoms in a molecule to be held together very strongly but there are ____ forces between individual molecules. This is why covalently-bonded molecules have low melting and boiling points (i.e. they are usually ____ or ______). Words – gas, covalent, non-metal, 1, 2, liquid, share, full, weak, stable Covalent bonding Consider an atom of hydrogen:

18. Covalent Bonding – Sharing Electrons • Hydrogen atoms have one electron in their outer shell • But they want two..!

19. Covalent Bonding – Sharing Electrons • Hydrogen atoms have one electron in their outer shell • But they want two..! • If they go round as a pair they can share electrons, so they both have a full outer shell • This sharing of electrons is known as Covalent bonding

20. Covalent Bonding 2 • In a water molecule the hydrogen and oxygen atoms are covalently bonded e.g. • electrons from the oxygen atom • x electrons from the hydrogen atom

21. Dot and cross diagrams Water, H2O: Step 1: Draw the atoms with their outer shell: Step 2: Put the atoms together and check they all have a full outer shell: H O H O H H Oxygen, O2: O O O O

26. Metallic Bonding • Metals form giant structures in which electrons in the outer shells of the metal atoms are free to move. • The metallic bond is the force of attraction between these free electrons and metal ions. • Metallic bonds are strong, so metals can maintain a regular structure and usually have high melting and boiling points. • Metals are good conductors of electricity and heat, because the free electrons carry a charge or heat energy through the metal. The free electrons allow metal atoms to slide over each other, so metals are flexible. • Longman FND 2, page 146-147

27. Questions – Summary of Chemical Bonding • Match the correct type of bonding to the elements that are joined... • Draw a diagram to show how the atoms are bonded in each type of bond.Show the electron arrangement. • Summary Q from Longman 2...(pages...146, 148 & 154)

28. Experiment... Investigate the solubility of • group 1 salts, • covalent and • metallic compounds in water and alcohol. Worksheet: ‘Solubility’ • Watch animation, complete task sheet on different types of bonding

30. Questions to summarise Covalent / ionic and metallic bonds

31. Sodium Chloride…. Dissolved in water, sodium chloride will split up and form the following ions… • Na+ • Cl- From salt • H+ • OH- From water Na+ or H+ ion Cl- or OH- ion • The positive ions (Na+ and H+) will, be attracted to the negative electrode (metal ions are usually positive) • The negative ions (Cl- and OH-) will be attracted to the positive electrode (non- metal ions are usually negative)

32. Questions on Electrolysis • Foundation Science 1 • Draw a series of diagram to show what happens to the atoms when sodium chloride dissolves in water, then undergoes electrolysis

33. Assessment

34. What you need to do… Scenario…. • You work in a research laboratory at the University of Plymouth. • The Environment Agency has approached you with four chemical samples that have been found near the play area at ‘Freedom Field Park’. • They have asked you to identify the type of substance as either ionic, covalent or metallic and given them an outline of the type of properties these substance will have. • You will carry out a practical assignment to identify the four unknown samples and you will produce a letter from the University to the Environment Agency in London. • This letter will include your identification of the four samples and justify your reasons (P2) an explanation of the properties of the samples (M2) and detailed explanation of the structure of any covalent or ionic substances found (D2)
