Study Notes

Bonding Unit

  • A chemical bond is an electrostatic attraction between the nuclei and valence electrons of different atoms.
  • Electrons are the subatomic particles involved in bonding.
  • Protons and neutrons are found in the nucleus.
  • Electrons are located outside the nucleus.
  • An orbital is the region where electrons are most likely to be found.
  • Valence shell is the outermost energy level.
  • Valence electrons are the electrons located in the valence shell.
  • Atoms with the same number of valence electrons behave similarly.
  • Atoms in the same group on the periodic table have the same number of valence electrons and therefore will bond/react similarly.
  • The maximum number of valence electrons is 8 (octet rule)
  • Atoms bond to become more stable.
  • An atom is stable when it has a full valence shell.
  • Noble gases/inert gases/group 18 are stable.

Types of Bonds

  • Ionic bonds form when electrons are transferred between atoms.
  • Covalent bonds form when electrons are shared between atoms.
  • Metallic bonds form when electrons are shared in a "sea" of freely moving electrons.
  • Ionic bonding exists in ionic compounds.
  • In ionic compounds the positive and negative ions combine in a ratio so the total number of positive charges equals the total number of negative charges.
  • Key terms for ionic : "Transfer of Electrons", "Salts", "Crystal Lattice Structures".
  • Metals lose electrons and nonmetals gain electrons.
  • The number of electrons lost by the metal(s) must equal the number of electrons gained by the nonmetal(s).
  • A binary compound is a compound composed of only two elements.
  • Ternary compounds are compounds that are composed of three or more elements.
  • Compounds are neutral.
  • Ions are charged particles.
  • Cations are positively charged ions
  • Anions are negatively charged ions
  • The electronegativity difference between the electronegativity values of the atoms within the compound determines covalent bond type.
  • A bond is considered ionic when the electronegativity difference is greater than or equal to 1.7.
  • The bigger the difference in electronegativity, the more polar the bond.
  • The smaller the difference in electronegativity, the less polar the bond.

Bond Formation

  • Energy is released when a bond is formed.
  • Energy is absorbed to break a bond.
  • Atoms bond to lower their potential energy.

Covalent Bonds

  • In covalent bonds electrons are shared between atoms
  • Covalent bonds generally form between nonmetals.
  • A covalent bond will have partial positive and negative charges if the electronegativity values of the atoms are not equal.
  • A covalent bond involves two or more atoms sharing electrons to fill their valence shells.
  • Nonpolar covalent bonds share electrons equally
  • Polar covalent bonds share electrons unequally.
  • Each type of covalent bond has a bond dissociation energy (strength) and a certain length.
  • A molecule with polar bonds will be polar only if its shape is asymmetrical and will not cancel out the dipoles that are present.
  • A molecule with polar bonds will be nonpolar only if its shape is symmetrical and the dipoles will cancel out.

Polyatomic Ions

  • Polyatomic ions are charged groups of covalently bonded atoms.
  • Polyatomic ions have a charge that applies to the entire group of atoms.
  • The names of polyatomic ions remain constant.
  • Keep the name that is on the table (table E).
  • When there is no number next to the charge, the number is really 1.
  • Ternary ionic compounds will always have one polyatomic ion and another monatomic ion or two polyatomic ions.

Naming Compounds

  • Use prefixes to indicate the number of atoms of each element.
  • Use the stock system (with roman numerals) if the metal can have more than one oxidation state.
  • Binary and ternary compounds have different naming conventions.

Intermolecular Forces

  • Intermolecular forces are the forces of attraction between molecules that exist between neighboring molecules.
  • There are three types of intermolecular forces:
  • Dispersion forces (or London dispersion forces): weak intermolecular forces that keep nonpolar molecules from being a gas at low temps.
  • Dipole-dipole forces: stronger than dispersion forces, occurring when the positive end of one dipole is attracted to the negative end of a nearby dipole.
  • Hydrogen bonds: strongest type of dipole-dipole attraction, where H is attracted to an electronegative atom (F, O, or N).
  • The stronger the intermolecular forces, the higher the boiling point.

Molecule Polarity

  • Molecule polarity is determined both by the polarity of the individual bonds and the molecular geometry.
  • If the dipoles cancel, the molecule is nonpolar.
  • If the dipoles do not cancel, the molecule is polar.
  • Like dissolves like (nonpolar dissolves nonpolar, polar dissolves polar, ionic dissolves polar).

Metallic Bonding

  • Metals have a "sea" of freely moving electrons.
  • Metals are excellent conductors in any phase because of free moving electrons.
  • Ionic solids do not conduct in a solid phase and do not conduct in the solid phase because of fixed ions.
