Study Notes
Types of Chemical Bonds
- Covalent Bond: Formed by mutual sharing of electrons between atoms, can be similar or dissimilar.
- Single Covalent Bond: Involves one pair of shared electrons (e.g., H2, Cl2, NH3).
- Double Covalent Bond: Involves two pairs of shared electrons.
- Triple Covalent Bond: Involves three pairs of shared electrons.
Metallic Bonds
- Found in metals like copper (Cu), iron (Fe), gold (Au), and silver (Ag).
- Characterized by attraction between positive nuclei and delocalized electrons.
-
Properties:
- Good conductors of heat and electricity.
- Exhibit a lustrous, shiny surface.
- Capable of being deformed without breaking (malleable).
- Can be drawn into wires (ductile).
Intramolecular Hydrogen Bond
- Formed when hydrogen bonds occur within a single molecule (e.g., ortho nitro phenol).
Significance of Hydrogen Bonds
- Contributes to the liquid state and high boiling point of water.
- Responsible for adhesive properties in substances like glue or honey.
- Rigidifies wood fibers.
- Provides flexibility to proteins through interactions between amino acids.
Types of Solids
- Crystalline Solid: Has regularly arranged constituent particles (e.g., NaCl, sugar).
- Amorphous Solid: Does not possess a definite structure.
Unit Cell Types
-
Cubic Crystal:
-
Types of Cubic Structures:
- Simple Cubic (SC) Crystal: Contains 1 atom per unit cell.
- Face Centered Cubic (FCC): Contains 4 atoms per unit cell (1 from corners and 3 from face centers).
- Body Centered Cubic (BCC): Not detailed but exists within cubic structures.
-
Types of Cubic Structures:
Electrochemistry
- Metal corrosion is a spontaneous reaction involving electrolytes.
-
Electrodes:
- Cathode: Negative terminal; reduction occurs here.
- Anode: Positive terminal; oxidation occurs here.
-
Electrolytes Classification:
- Strong Electrolytes: Fully ionize in solution (e.g., HCl, NaOH).
- Weak Electrolytes: Partially ionize; degree of ionization increases with dilution (e.g., CH3COOH).
- Non-Electrolytes: Do not conduct electricity in aqueous solutions (e.g., sugar, oil).
Electronic Configuration
- Tables list atomic number, element names, electronic configuration, and number of valence electrons (e.g., Hydrogen has 1s1 with 1 valence electron; Neon has a complete shell with 8 valence electrons).
