Study Notes

Chemical Bonding

  • Ionic bonds are formed by the transfer of valence electrons between atoms.
  • Atoms that lose electrons acquire a positive charge (become cations).
  • Atoms that readily give up electrons are called metals.
  • Chlorine atoms have seven valence electrons.

Electron Transfer

  • Nonmetals tend to accept electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration (typically eight electrons in their outermost shell, satisfying the octet rule).
