Study Notes
Chemical Bonding (Part 1)
- Chemical bonding is the force of attraction between atoms or ions.
- Bonds form when atoms share or transfer valence electrons.
- Valence electrons in the outer energy level determine chemical interactions.
- The octet rule states atoms prefer to have eight valence electrons.
- Noble gases are least reactive because they already have a full octet.
- Other elements gain, lose, or share electrons to achieve a full octet.
- Ionic bonds are formed by the transfer of electrons.
- Cations are positively charged ions (metals lose electrons).
- Anions are negatively charged ions (non-metals gain electrons).
- Ionic compounds have high melting and boiling points due to strong electrostatic attractions.
- Ions form lattice structures.
- Covalent bonds are formed by the sharing of electron pairs.
- Covalent bonds can be non-polar (equal sharing), or polar (unequal sharing).
- Covalent compounds generally have lower melting and boiling points, and are soft and flexible.
- Molecules and macromolecules are formed through covalent bonding.
- Lewis structures show how valence electrons are arranged in molecules.
- Determining the total valence electrons is the first step in drawing Lewis structures.
- Subscripts are omitted in ionic compounds when they are 1.
