Study Notes

Chemical Bonds

  • Chemical bonds are classified into three types based on the atoms involved: ionic, covalent, and metallic.

  • Ionic bond: Forms when electrons are transferred between atoms, creating oppositely charged ions that attract each other. Generally forms when a metal bonds with a nonmetal. The method is electron transfer.

  • Covalent bond: Forms when two atoms share some of their electrons. Generally forms when nonmetal atoms bond together. The method is electron sharing.

  • Metallic bond: Forms when metal and metal atoms bond. Electrons are pooled.

  • Types of Atoms and Corresponding Bonds:

    • Metal and nonmetal → Ionic bond
    • Nonmetal and nonmetal → Covalent bond
    • Metal and metal → Metallic bond

The Ionic Bond

  • Ionic bonds form when electrons are transferred between atoms, creating oppositely charged ions.
  • This usually happens when a metal bonds to a nonmetal.
  • The method is electron transfer. This results in a compound with a crystalline lattice structure.
  • Ions formed are called cations (positive) and anions (negative).

The Covalent Bond

  • Covalent bonds form when atoms share electrons.
  • This typically occurs between nonmetal atoms.
  • The shared electrons hold the atoms together by attracting the nuclei of both.
  • The method is electron sharing.
  • Covalent bonds can be single, double, or triple, depending on how many electron pairs are shared.
    • Single covalent bond: one electron pair shared (2 electrons)
    • Double covalent bond: two electron pairs shared (4 electrons)
    • Triple covalent bond: three electron pairs shared (6 electrons)

The Coordinate Bond

  • A coordinate bond, also called a dative covalent bond, is a covalent bond where both electrons originate from the same atom.
  • One atom (donor/Lewis base) provides a lone pair of electrons, and another atom (acceptor/Lewis acid) accepts them.
  • Lewis acid: electron pair acceptor
  • Lewis base: electron pair donor

Representing Valence Electrons (Lewis Structures)

  • Lewis structures are diagrams that show valence electrons in main group elements as dots.
  • The number of valence electrons is equal to the group number in the periodic table (except for helium).
  • Dots are placed around the element's symbol, with a maximum of two dots per side initially. Single dots are placed first before pairing.

Intermolecular Forces

  • Intermolecular forces are the attractive forces between molecules.
  • They are generally much weaker than the intramolecular forces holding atoms together within a molecule.
  • These forces influence various physical properties:
    • Melting and boiling points
    • Solubility
    • Rate and outcome of chemical reactions

Intermolecular Forces in Covalent Molecules

  • Three types of intermolecular forces in covalent molecules, ranked by increasing strength:
    • London dispersion forces: Very weak forces caused by temporary changes in electron density. Strength increases with molecular size.
    • Dipole-dipole interactions: Moderate forces between permanent dipoles in polar molecules. Dipoles align so that opposite charges are close.
    • Hydrogen bonding: Strong forces between molecules where a hydrogen atom bonded to a highly electronegative atom (O, N, or F) is attracted to another electronegative atom in another molecule.

Ion-Dipole Forces

  • Ion-dipole forces are electrostatic attractions between a charged ion and a polar molecule.
  • These forces are common in solutions, particularly for ionic compounds dissolving in polar solvents like water.
  • The strength of the ion-dipole interaction is proportional to:
    • The charge on the ion
    • The magnitude of the dipole moment of the molecule.
