Chapter 5 Atoms and Bonding
5.1 Atoms, Bonding and the Periodic Table • Why do chemical reactions occur?
Valence Electrons are • The electrons that have the highest energy level and held the most loosely • The # of valence electrons determines properties of the element and how it will interact with other substances
Electron Dot Diagrams • A way to represent the valence electrons in an atom or compound • Each dot represents one electron
Chemical Bonds and Stability • Atoms are most stable, less likely to react, when they have 8 valence electrons to complete the outer shell. (A couple elements only need 2 valence electrons to complete the outer shell). • Atoms react to become more stable in 2 ways: 1) they give up the loosely held electrons or 2) they gain electrons until it has 8 • By gaining or losing electrons, atoms form a chemical bond: a force of attraction between 2 atoms that holds them together
Valence Electrons and the PT • Group # = # of valence electrons for groups IA-VIIIA. Groups 3-12 vary
Inert Gases • Group 18 (VIIIA) elements have a full outer shell of 8 already (except He, it has 2) • Therefore, they do not gain nor lose electrons and are unreactive
Halogens Group (VIIA) • 7 valence electrons. They will gain 1 electron and become negatively charged, 1-
Alkali Metals Group IA • Will lose 1 electron & become positively charged, 1+
Alkaline Earth Metals, Group IIA • They will lose 2 electrons and become positively charged, 2+
5.2 Ionic Bonds • Electrons transfer from the metal atom to the non-metal atom. • The atom is now called an ion: a charged particle • The metal will have a positive charge (it lost electron(s))and the non-metal will have a negative charge (it gained electron(s)).

Ionic Bond: • An attractive force between oppositely charged ions
Chemical Names and Formula • Chemical Formula: a combination of chemical symbols that show the ratio of elements in a compound • Compounds are made so that the charges on the ions balance out • Total “+” charge = total “–” charge • Subscripts are used to 1)indicate the ratio of each element in the compound 2) indicate how many of each ion is needed
Writing Chemical Formulas • Write the chemical symbol and charge of each element • Crisscross the charges and make them subscripts on the opposite ion • Write the formula
Sample problems Magnesium Oxide Calcium Phosphide
Naming Ionic Compounds • Name the metal • Name the non-metal with an “-ide” ending
Sample problems KCl Al2O3 Be3P2 • Li2S
Properties of Ionic Compounds • Ionic compounds form solids by building up repeating patterns of ions. • The ions form an orderly 3D arrangement called a crystal or crystalline lattice structure • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzkA11j2sr4
High Melting Points • Ionic bonds are strong & require a large energy input to break the attractive forces between ions • Therefore, ionic compounds have high melting points (solid →liquid)
Electrical Conductivity • When ionic compounds dissolve in water, the ions move around independently and are able to conduct an electrical current. • Liquid ionic compounds also conduct an electrical current b/c the ions are free to move around • Ionic solids on the other hand Do Not conduct electricity b/c the ions are held rigidly in place and not able to move freely
Electrical Conductivity • No ions ions held ions freely moving in place
5.3 Covalent Bonds • By sharing electrons, called a covalent bond, atoms become more stable • The force that holds atoms together in a covalent bond is the attraction of each atom’s nucleus for the shared pair(s) of electrons • When electrons are shared, molecules form, a neutral group of atoms joined by covalent bonds
How many bonds are made? • The # of covalent bonds formed by non-metals, equals the # of electrons needed to make 8 (Exception: H only needs 2) • Here, chlorine has 7 valence electrons. 1 more is needed to get 8, so chlorine will make 1 bond
Oxygen: has 6 valence e- • It needs 2 more to get 8, so it will make 2 bonds • Notice, the total # of e- you started with, is the same as you ended up with, just arranged differently. • →→
Nitrogen: has 5 needs 3 more valence e-. So, it will make 3 bonds
Molecular Compounds • Composed of molecules • Compared to ionic compounds, molecular compounds: • Have low melting and boiling points • Don’t conduct electricity… b/c there are no charged particles to pass the current along • Have weaker intermolecular forces; so, less energy is needed to cause a phase change

Metals and Alloys • Most metallic objects are alloys, a mixture of 2 or more elements, with at least 1 metal • Alloys are usually stronger and less reactive than the pure metals that they come from • Alloys can retain some of the physical properties of the pure metals • Chemical properties are enhanced or reduced in alloys
Common Alloys • Stainless Steel: an alloy of iron, carbon, nickel, and chromium
Metallic Bonding • Most metals are crystalline solids; atoms exist as closely packed positive ions surrounded by a sea of electrons
Metallic Bonding • Metal ions are held in place by Metallic Bonds: an attraction between a + metal ion and the many e- around it. • The more valence electrons an atom can add to the sea of electrons, the stronger the metallic bonds
Metallic Properties • The “sea of electrons” model helps explain the properties of metals
Malleability and Ductility • Most metals are flexible and can be re-shaped easily without breaking. • The ions can be pushed out of position without breaking the metallic bonds • (pg 210 Fig 24)
Because metal ions move easily, they can change shape • Ductility: ability to be pulled into thin strands or wire • Malleability: the ability to bepounded or rolled into thin sheets
Luster: shiny and reflective • Metals absorb light that strikes their surface and then release it.
Thermal and Electrical Conductivity • Metals conduct heat and electricity b/c the electrons move freely among the atoms
