Chemical Bond
• A bond results from the attraction of nuclei for electrons
– All atoms trying to achieve a stable octet
• IN OTHER WORDS
– the p+ in one nucleus are attracted to the e- of
another atom
Two Major Types of
Bonding
•
Ionic Bonding
– forms ionic compounds – transfer of e
-•
Covalent
Bonding
-One
minor
type of bonding
• Metallic bonding
– Occurs between like atoms of a metal in the free state
– Valence e- are mobile (move freely among all metal atoms)
– Positive ions in a sea of electrons
• Metallic characteristics
– High mp temps, ductile, malleable, shiny
– Hard substances
It’s the
mobile electrons
that enable m
e
-tals to
ION
ic Bonding
• electrons are transferred between
valence shells of atoms • ionic compounds are
made of ions
• ionic compounds are called Salts or
Crystals
ION

• Always formed between metals and non-metals

ic Bonding
• Electronegativity difference > 2.0
– Look up e-neg of the atoms in the bond and subtract
NaCl CaCl2
• Compounds with polyatomic ions
• hard solid @ 22oC
• high mp temperatures
• nonconductors of electricity in solid phase
• good conductors in liquid phase or dissolved in water (aq)
SALTS Crystals
Covalent Bonding
•
Pairs
of e- are
shared
between
non-metal
atoms
• electronegativity
difference
< 2.0
• forms polyatomic ions

using Lewis Dot Structures
• Symbol represents the KERNEL of the atom (nucleus and inner e-)
-NaCl
• This is the finished Lewis Dot Structure
[Na]
+
[ Cl ]
• Step 1 after checking that it is IONIC
– Determine which atom will be the +ion
– Determine which atom will be the - ion
• Step 2
– Write the symbol for the + ion first.
• NO DOTS
– Draw the e- dot diagram for the – ion
• COMPLETE outer shell
• Step 3
Draw the Lewis Diagrams
• LiF
Drawing
molecules
using
Lewis Dot Structures
• Symbol represents the KERNEL of the atom (nucleus and inner e-)
-Always remember atoms are
trying to complete their outer
shell!
The number of electrons the atoms needs is the total number of bonds they can make. Ex. … H? O? F? N? Cl? C?
Methane CH
4• This is the finished Lewis dot structure
• Step 1
– count total valence e- involved • Step 2
– connect the central atom (usually the first in the formula) to the others with single bonds
• Step 3
– complete valence shells of outer atoms
• Step 4
– add any extra e- to central atom
Sometimes . . .
• You only have two atoms, so there is no central atom, but follow the same rules.
• Check & Share to make sure all the atoms are “happy”.
• DOUBLE bond
– atoms that share two e- pairs (4 e-)
O O
• TRIPLE bond
– atoms that share three e- pairs (6 e-)
Draw Lewis Dot Structures
You may represent valence electrons
from different atoms with the following symbols x, ,
Draw the Lewis Dot Diagram for
polyatomic ions
• Count all valence e- needed for covalent bonding
• Add or subtract other electrons based on the charge
REMEMBER!
A positive charge means it LOST

Types of
Covalent
Covalent
Bonds
Bonds
• NON-Polar
bonds
–Electrons shared evenly in the bond –E-neg difference is zero
Between identical atoms
Types of Covalent
Bonds
Polar bond
–Electrons unevenly shared
–E-neg difference greater than zero but
less than 2.0
closer to 2.0 more polar
non-polar
MOLECULES
• Sometimes the
bonds
within a
molecule are polar and yet the
molecule
is non-polar because its
shape is
symmetrical

(a.k.a.
Dipoles)

Ionic bonds are so polar that the electrons are
not shared
but transferredC. Johannesson

• Types of e- Pairs
– Bonding pairs - form bonds – Lone pairs - nonbonding e
-Lone pairs repel
1. Linear (straight line)

2. Bent

3.Trigonal pyramid

4.Tetrahedral
Ball and stick
• Attractions between
molecules
– van der Waals forces
• Weak attractive forces between non-polar molecules
– Hydrogen “bonding”
• Strong attraction between special
polar molecules
van der Waals
• Non-polar molecules can exist in liquid and solid phases
because van der Waals forces keep the molecules attracted to each other
van der Waals periodicity
• increase with molecular mass.
• increase with closer distance between molecules
Hydrogen “Bonding”
• Strong polar attraction
– Like magnets
• Occurs ONLY
between H of one molecule and N, O, F of another
H is shared between
2 atoms of OXYGEN or
2 atoms of NITROGEN or
2 atoms of FLUORINE
Of 2
different
Why does H “bonding”
occur?
• Nitrogen, Oxygen and Fluorine
– small atoms with strong nuclear charges
• powerful atoms
Intermolecular forces
dictate chemical properties
Which substance has the
highest boiling point?
• HF • NH3 • H2O
• WHY?
Fluorine has the highest e-neg, SO
HF will experience the
strongest H bonding and needs the most energy to
