    Study Notes

    Chemical Bonds

    • Chemical bonds hold atoms together in chemical compounds
    • Covalent bonds are formed when atoms share electrons
    • Ionic bonds are formed when atoms transfer electrons to form ions
    • The attraction between ions is called an ionic bond

    Types of Chemical Bonds

    • Ionic bond: Formed between a metal and a nonmetal.
    • Covalent bond: Formed between two nonmetals, where electrons are shared to achieve a stable octet.
    • Coordinate bond (dative covalent bond): A covalent bond where both electrons come from the same atom.
    • Hydrogen bond: An electrostatic attraction between a hydrogen atom covalently linked to a highly electronegative atom (like oxygen or nitrogen) and an electron pair in the adjacent molecule.

    Covalent Bonds

    • Sigma bonds (σ): Formed by the overlap of atomic orbitals along the orbital axis.
    • Pi bonds (π): Formed by the overlap of two lobes of the interacting atomic orbitals above and below the orbital axis.

    Hybridization

    • The concept of atomic orbitals fusing to form hybridized orbitals influences molecular geometry and bonding properties.
    • sp3 Hybridization: In methane (CH4), one s and three p orbitals combine creating 4 sp3 hybridized orbitals that are tetrahedral, resulting in bond angles of 109.5°.
    • sp2 Hybridization: In ethylene, one s and two p orbitals combine forming three sp3 orbitals and leaves one p orbital. The sp2 orbitals are trigonal planar, with bond angles around 120°.

    Factors Affecting Electron Availability at an Atom

    • Inductive Effect: Electron-withdrawing groups (I-) pull electron density away from a carbon atom while electron-donating groups (+I) push electron density towards a carbon atom.
    • Resonance: The delocalization of pi electrons or lone pairs in a planar system with parallel p orbitals.
    • Hyperconjugation: The interaction of electrons in a σ bond with an adjacent empty p orbital.

    Breaking of Covalent Bonds

    • Homolytic fission: A bond breaks, and one electron goes to each atom, resulting in radicals.
    • Heterolytic fission: A bond breaks, and one atom gets both electrons, resulting in ions.

    Valence

    • The number of unpaired electrons present in the outermost shell of an atom, determining its bonding capacity.
