Study Notes
Chemical Bonding Overview
- Three types of chemical bonds exist: ionic, covalent, and metallic.
- Ionic bonds involve the donation and reception of valence electrons.
- Covalent bonds involve the sharing of valence electrons.
- Metallic bonds have valence electrons freely flowing throughout the structure.
Ionic Bonds
- Formed between metals and nonmetals.
- Metals (like alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, and some others) lose valence electrons to become positively charged ions (cations).
- Nonmetals (like halogens and oxides) gain valence electrons to become negatively charged ions (anions).
- Ionic compounds typically have high melting points and are solids at room temperature.
- They often dissolve in water.
- Naming ionic compounds: Cation name first, followed by the anion name (e.g., NaCl = sodium chloride). Monatomic cations use the element name. Monatomic anions use the root of the element name, with the ending changed to "-ide" (e.g., Cl = chloride).
Ionic Compound Naming Examples
- Ammonium ([NH4]+)
- Hydroxide ([OH]-)
- Nitrate ([NO3]-)
- Sulfate ([SO4]2-)
- Carbonate ([CO3]2-)
- Phosphate ([PO4]3-)
Transition Metal Ions
- Transition metals can form multiple cation charges.
- Use Roman numerals (e.g., Fe2+ = iron(II)) to indicate the charge of the cation.
Covalent Bonds
- Formed between nonmetals or between nonmetals and metalloids.
- Elements share valence electrons.
Naming Covalent Compounds
- The more electronegative element is named first, then the less electronegative element.
- Prefixes indicate the number of atoms of each element in the compound (mono, di, tri, tetra, penta, hexa, hepta, octa, nona, deca).
- Change the ending of the second element's name to "-ide."
Covalent Compound Naming Examples
- Use prefixes, as in "diatomic oxygen."
Lewis Dot Diagrams (Electronic Structure)
- Visual representation of valence electrons.
- Dots represent valence electrons, and lines indicate shared electrons.
- Note the number of dots given by the group number of the atom.
Distinguishing Ionic vs. Covalent Bonds
- Ionic compounds are hard, brittle solids with high melting points and commonly dissolve in water.
- Covalent compounds vary more in properties – may be soft or hard, with low melting points and limited water solubility.
