E N D
CHAPTER 9 Covalent Bonding
What You Will Learn… • The nature of the covalent bond • How to name covalently bonded groups of atoms • Shapes of molecules • Characteristics of covalent molecules • How to compare and contrast polar and nonpolar molecules
Why It Is Important • Most compounds are covalently bonded • Including those in living organisms
Assignment • Write out Chapter 9 vocabulary words and their definitions • 14 words on page 271 • PLUS the octet rule from Chapter 6
The Covalent Bond Section 9.1
Objectives • Apply the octet rule to atoms that bond covalently • Describe the formation of single, double, and triple covalent bonds • Compare and contrast sigma and pi bonds • Relate the strengths of covalent bonds to bond length and bond dissociation energy
Covalent bond Molecule Lewis structure Sigma bond Pi bond Endothermic Exothermic Key Terms
Review • Do noble gases bond? • Why or why not? • What is an ionic bond? • Fill in the blank: • In an ionic bond, electrons are_________from one ion to another.
Sharing Electrons • Another way atoms acquire noble gas configurations • Occurs when BOTH atoms want to gain valence electrons
Covalent Bond • Bond that results from sharingvalence electrons • Shared electrons become part of BOTH atoms’ outer energy level • Most between NONMETALS
Molecule • Formed when two or more atoms bond covalently • Covalent bonds are often called molecular bonds
Diatomic Molecules • Two atoms of the same element form a bond • Attractive forces = Repulsive forces • Examples: • H2 • O2 • N2 • Halogens: F2, Cl2, Br2, I2
Diatomic Fluorine Each Fluorine has 3 lone pairs and 1 shared pair of electrons
Single Covalent Bond • 2 electrons (or 1 pair) are shared between two atoms
Lewis Structure • Electron-dot diagrams for molecules • Dots represent lone pairs of electrons • A line represents shared electrons
Lewis Structures H-H H ö: H
Lewis StructuresGroup 7A Elements 7 valence electrons, need 1 more, form one single bond
Lewis StructuresGroup 6A Elements • 6 valence electrons, need 2 more, form 2 single bonds
Lewis StructuresGroup 5A Elements • 5 valence electrons, need 3 more, form 3 single bonds
Lewis StructuresGroup 4A Elements • 4 valence electrons, need 4 more, form 4 single bonds
Practice Problem • Section 9.1 #1 on page 874
Sigma Bond • Another name for single covalent bonds • • Electron pair is shared in the area centered between atoms • Valence orbitals overlap end to end • s and s; s and p; p and p
Multiple Covalent Bonds • Atoms form noble gas configuration by sharing more than one pair or electrons between 2 atoms • C, N, O, S
Double Bond • 2 pairs (or 4 electrons) of electrons are shared
Triple Bond • 3 pairs (or 6 electrons) of electrons are shared
Pi Bond • Formed when parallel orbits overlap to share electrons • Shared par occupies the space above and below the line that represents where the 2 atoms join together
Multiple Bonds • 1 sigma bond • At least 1 pi bond
Double Bond • 1 sigma bond • 1 pi bond
Triple Bond • One sigma bond • Two pi bonds
Strength of Covalent Bond • Distance between nuclei • Bond length= distance at maximum attraction • Bond dissociation energy= energy required to break bonds
Exothermic Reaction • More energy is released forming new bonds than is required to break bonds in the initial reactants
Endothermic Reaction • Greater amount of energy is required to break the existing bonds in the reactants than is released when the new bonds form in the products
