    Study Notes

    Chemical Bonding

    • Chemical bonds are strong attractive forces between atoms in a substance.
    • Bonds are classified into three types: ionic, covalent, and metallic.

    Ionic Bonding

    • Ionic bonds typically form between metals and nonmetals.
    • Electrons are transferred from metal to nonmetal atoms.
    • Examples include NaCl, MgBr2, and AlF3.

    Covalent Bonding

    • Covalent bonds usually form between nonmetals.
    • Atoms share electrons.
    • Examples include H2, Cl2, N2, HCl, H2O, NH3, CO2, and CCl4.

    Metallic Bonding

    • Metallic bonds occur between metallic ions.
    • Electrons are shared in a "sea of electrons" within the metallic structure.
    • Examples include Cu, Al, and Na.

    Lewis Electron-Dot Symbols

    • Valence electrons are represented by dots around the symbol of an element.
    • Dots represent the outermost electrons.
    • Examples include Na and Ga

    Ionic Bonds (Properties)

    • Salts are typically crystalline solids at room temperature.
    • Salts have high melting points.
    • Salts are strong electrolytes in molten or aqueous solutions.
    • Ionic bonds are electrostatic attractions between oppositely charged ions.

    Other Examples of Ionic Compounds

    • Example reactions illustrating the formation and transfer of electrons in ionic compounds.

    Energy Involved in Ionic Bonding

    • This is an endothermic (absorbs energy) or exothermic (releases energy) process depending on the sequence of steps.
    • Steps include sublimation of sodium, dissociation of chlorine, ionization of sodium, formation of chloride ions, and formation of the ionic solid.

    Ionic Radii

    • The radius of an ion is the distance from the nucleus to the outermost electron shell.
    • Determined experimentally using X-ray diffraction crystallography.
    • Provides insights into the size and structure of ions in crystals.

    Radii of Cations

    • The size of a cation (positive ion) depends on the number of protons and electrons.
    • More positive ionic charges result in smaller cations.
    • This can be attributed to the electron-proton interactions within the ion.

    Radii of Anions

    • The size of an anion (negative ion) depends on the number of protons and electrons.
    • More negative ionic charges result in larger anions.
    • More electrons mean less attraction between the nucleus and electrons within the ion.

    Size of Cations in the Periodic Table

    • Cations decrease in size moving across a period (left to right) on the periodic table.
    • Cations increase in size moving down a group (top to bottom) on the periodic table.
    • The increasing number of filled electron shells and corresponding electron-electron repulsions influence ionic size.

    Size of Anions in the Periodic Table

    • Anions decrease in size moving across a period (left to right) on the periodic table.
    • Anions increase in size moving down a group (top to bottom) on the periodic table.
    • The increasing number of filled electron shells and corresponding electron-electron repulsions influence ionic size.
