Elements are the simplest substances. There are about 100 different elements S Fe N O C K N N N N N N N N Elements • Each elements has just one particular type of atom that is different to the atoms in any other element • Even in elements atoms usually join (bond) together. • In some elements atoms bond to form small simple structures. • In other elements atoms bond into giant structures with millions of atoms.
Reacting is different to just mixing. The physical and chemical properties of compounds are very different to their original elements. ELEMENTS COMPOUND O C O O O (colourless gas, that supports combustion) (black solid) (a colourless gas, that extinguishes fire) Compounds are not just mixtures Carbon dioxide Carbon + oxygen C

Two of the three particles in atoms have an electrical charge. Protons +1 Neutrons 0 Electrons -1 19 F 9 20 Ne 10 Fluorine 9 protons 9+ 9 electrons 9- 10 neutrons 0 Total Charge 0 Neon Copy & Fill in the gaps ___ protons ___ ___ electrons ___ ___neutrons ___ Total Charge ___ No charge on element atoms BUT atoms have equal numbers of protons and electrons. This means their overall charge = zero. For example 10+ 10 10 10- 0 10 0
The electrons around the outside of atoms are arranged in layers called shells 1st Shell: 2 electrons 2nd Shell: 8 electrons 3rd Shell: 8 electrons Noble Gases: full shells Each shell has a maximum number of electrons that it can hold. In noble gases the shells are completely full rather than partially full. During bonding other atoms try to attain the “full electron shell” structure of the noble gases.
Metal and non-metal Non-metals only Types of bonding Atoms can be joined together in 2 possible ways Ionic Bonding Covalent Bonding All three types involve changes in the electrons in the outermost electron shells of the atoms
Ionic Bonding Involves the gain or loss of electrons to form charged atoms called ions. The positive ions and negative ions are attracted to each other and bond together.
Most ionic compounds contain a metal and a non-metal. n+ Lose 1 or more electrons (negative) Neutral atom Positive ion n- Gain 1 or more electrons Neutral atom Negative ion IONIC BONDING When metals react they lose outer shell electrons to leave a full electron shell. This produces a charged atom (ion) with a + charge. When non-metals react with a metal they gain electrons to achieve a full electron shell.
The oppositely charged ions are attracted into a lattice that gets bigger and bigger until it consists of millions of ions + + + + + - - - - + + + opposites attract + - - - + + + + + + - - - - - - - - + - + Opposites attract – lattices And ion, and ion, and ion!
Metals lose electrons to form positive(+) ions called cations. n+ n- Ions and electron structures Non-metals gain electrons to form negative (–) ions called anions. • We know that the atoms lose or gain electrons to achieve full electron shells.
Sodium has 1 electron in its outer shell. Loses 1 electron Na+ Na Formation of sodium chloride1. Formation of sodium ions If it loses this it will have no partially filled shells. Sodium atom (2.8.1) Sodium 1+ ion (2.8.0) This only happens if there is another atom able to accommodate the lost electron.
Chlorine has 7 electrons in its outer shell. Cl Gains1 electron (from sodium) Cl Formation of sodium chloride 2.Formation of Chloride ions If it gains 1 electron it can achieve a full outer electron shell. It is, therefore, going to be able to accept the electron that the sodium wants to lose. Chlorine atom (2.8.7) Chlorine I - ion (2.8.8)
Sodium loses its outer electron. Chlorine gains it. The result is both end up with full shells Cl Na Formation of Sodium Chloride- the overall process. Cl Na Two oppositely charged ions are formed, which attract. Millions of such pairs form a giant lattice
We can assume full inner electron shells. We can therefore sometimes shorten bonding diagrams by omitting to draw the inner electron shells. Na Cl Cl Na Simpler electron diagrams
More than one electron may be transferred between atoms in ionic bonding. O O2- Mg Magnesium Oxide 2.6 2.8.2. Magnesium atom Oxygen atom Mg2+ 2.8 2.8 Bonding in Magnesium Oxide

Following the previously shown slides draw bonding diagrams for the compounds formed from the following atoms: Lithium (2.1) and fluorine (2.7) Sodium (2.8.1) and sulphur (2.8.6) Magnesium (2.8.2) and sulphur (2.8.6) Magnesium (2.8.2) and fluorine (2.7) Aluminium (2.8.3) and nitrogen (2.5) Activity Remember that the total number of electrons lost by the metal must equal the total number of electrons gained by the non-metal
Both sodium chloride and magnesium oxide are simple ionic compounds. In both cases the metal and non-metal need to lose or gain the same number of electrons respectively. Na Cl Cl- Na+ 1 electron O2- Mg2+ O Mg 2 electrons Electrons Lost = Electrons Gained This is not always the case.
Consider the reaction of sodium with oxygen. Sodium (2.8.1) needs to lose 1 electron. Oxygen (2.6) needs to gain 2 electrons This can only happen if there are two sodium ions formed for every one oxygen ion formed. Na+ Na O O2- 1 electron per sodium Na+ Na Different numbers of electrons The formula will be Na2O.
Consider the reaction of magnesium with chlorine. Magnesium (2.8.2) needs to lose 2 electron. Chlorine (2.8.7) needs to gain 1 electrons We need 2 chlorines for every one magnesium. Cl Cl- Mg Mg2+ Cl- Cl 2 electrons Different numbers of electrons The formula will be MgCl2
When atoms form ions they aim to attain electron shells that are either completely full or completely empty. If we know the electron configuration of an atom we can usually work out how many electrons it must lose or gain to achieve a noble gas configuration. This will tell us the charge on its ion. Charges on ions
Octet Rule: atoms will bond with other atoms to gain, lose or share electrons in order to achieve a full outer shell (i.e. 8) • Ion = charged atom • Ionic bond: is formed between positive ions and negative ions which are attracted to each other and bond together. • Most ionic compounds contain a metal and a non-metal. • Need to know MgO and NaCl
Covalent Bonding Involves the sharing of electrons between atoms to form molecules
Covalent compounds are generally formed when non-metal atoms react together. Sharing of electrons Covalent compounds
Covalent compounds are held together by this sharing of electrons. A covalent bond is when a pair of electrons are shared It is sometimes represented in full bonding diagrams (see figure 1). Often these bonds are just shown as a pair of electrons (xx) or even just a line (see figure 2). - Figure 1 Figure 2 F F X X F F Covalent bonds
Sometimes just a few atoms join together in this way. . covalent bonds Small covalent structures
