Chemical Bonds• Chemical bond

– A force that holds atoms together in a

molecule or compound

• Two types of

chemical bonds

– Ionic Bonds

– Covalent Bonds

8 -

Figure 8.2

5

Ionic Bond• A bond created by

electrostatic attraction

between oppositely charged ions

• Occurs between a metal and a nonmetal

• Electrons transferred between the cation (positively charged ion)

and the anion (negatively charged ion)

• Extremely strong bonds8 -

6

Covalent Bonds• A bond created by the

sharing of electrons between atoms

• Occurs between two nonmetals (resulting in a neutral overall charge)

• Electrons not transferred in this case

• Electrons shared in pairs typically

• Weaker bonds than ionic bonds

2. ClO2 – Covalent bonding (2 nonmetals)

3. FeSO4 – Ionic bonding between the metal and nonmetal; Covalent bonding between the nonmetals in the polyatomic ion

4. SO2 – Covalent bonding

5. Ca(ClO2)2 - Ionic bonding between the metal and nonmetal; Covalent bonding between the nonmetals in the polyatomic ion

Polar vs. Nonpolar• Two general types of covalent bonds:

– Polar covalent• Unequal sharing (or a partial transfer) of

electrons

• Occurs when different elements are covalently bonded to one another

–Why different elements?»Because different elements have

different electronegativities

– Nonpolar covalent• Equal sharing (no transfer) of electrons

• Occurs only when all of the atoms in a molecule belong to the same element

Polar vs. Nonpolar• Polar covalent bonds are:

– Typically shorter bonds – Stronger bonds due to their increased ionic

character

• Nonpolar covalent bonds are:– Typically longer bonds – Weaker bonds

• Polarity– Occurs in polar covalent molecules

– Polarity is the degree of transfer of electrons in a covalently bonded molecule composed of different element’s atoms.

8 -

12

Electronegativity• Ability of an atom to attract bonding electrons

• Proposed by Linus Pauling in the early 1930’s

• A difference in electronegativity between the atoms in a covalent bond results in:– A polar covalent bond

– Increased ionic character

• The greater the difference in electronegativity, the greater the ionic character and the more polar the bond that joins the atoms.

– Decreased bond length and increased bond strength

• No difference in electronegativity between atoms in a covalent bond results in a nonpolar covalent bond.

4. CCl4 – Polar covalent bonds ���� Cl is more electronegative and has a partial negative charge

5. O3 – Nonpolar covalent bonds

17

Ionic Bonding• Formation of ions and ionic bonds relates to an

element’s electron configuration.

• Each element immediately following a noble gas is a metal.– Metals lose electrons, forming a positive

charge, to become cations.• Each element immediately preceding a noble

gas is a nonmetal.

– Nonmetals gain electrons, forming a negative charge, to become anions.

• Therefore, elements (main-group) either lose or gain electrons to become isoelectronic with a noble gas (i.e. have the same electron configuration).

– Dots placed around an element’s symbol represent valence electrons

– Pair electrons as needed

Structures of Ionic Crystals• Crystal lattice

– The pattern obtained when an ion, represented as a charged sphere, exerts a force equally in all directions.

• Thus, ions of equal and opposite charge surround it.

– Cations and anions must come into contact for a crystal lattice to form.

8 -

Figure 8.10

23

Structures of Ionic Crystals• Ionic crystal

– Ions are arranged in a regular geometric pattern that maximizes the attractive forces and minimizes the repulsive forces.

– Hard and brittle

– Can shatter if struck forcefully

• The charges and sizes of ions largely determine the characteristic patterns of ionic crystals

Octet Rule• Octet rule

– Tendency of an atom to achieve an electron configuration having 8 valence electrons

• Same as the electron configuration of a noble gas

• Covalently bonded atoms achieve 8 valence electrons by sharing electrons

• The 8 electrons exist in 4 pairs

– H reacts to obtain a total of 2 electrons

like He.

Covalent Bonding• Single covalent bond

– A covalent bond that consists

of a pair of electrons shared

by two atoms

– Each atom contributes one

electron to the bond

• The orbitals overlap to

allow the electron pair to be located around both

atoms

– Lewis formula

• The atoms are shown

separately and the valence

electrons are represented

by dots

Covalent Bonding• Multiple covalent bonds

– Covalent bonds that consist of more than one pair of electrons shared by two atoms

– Double bond• Sharing of two pairs of

electrons (4 electrons total)• In Lewis Dot structures, a

double bond is represented by 4 dots or 2 parallel lines.

– Triple bond• Sharing of three pairs of

electrons (6 electrons total)

Steps for Writing Lewis Dot Structures

1. Write an atomic skeleton.• The arrangement of atoms is usually symmetrical.• In a molecule of two different elements, the one with

the greater number of atoms usually surrounds the one with the lesser number of atoms.

• The central atom, the one surrounded by the other atoms, tends to be the one that is less electronegative and is present in the least quantity. This atom usually forms the greater number of bonds and is found further toward the bottom left side of the periodic table.

• Hydrogen atoms are generally on the outside of the molecule.

• The chemical formula may give clues about the arrangement of atoms.

Steps for Writing Lewis Dot Structures (Cont’d)

2. Sum the valence electrons from each atom to get the total number of valence electrons.

3. Place two electrons, a single bond, between each pair of bonded atoms.

4. If you have not placed all the valence electrons in the formula, add any remaining electrons as unshared electron pairs, consistent with the octet rule.• Add pairs of electrons first to complete the octet of

atoms surrounding the central atom. Then add any remaining electrons in pairs to the central atom.

Steps for Writing Lewis Dot Structures (Cont’d)

5. If necessary to satisfy the octet rule,

shift unshared electrons from non-

bonded position on atoms with

completed octets to positions

between atoms to make double or

triple bonds.

Resonance Structures• When there are several equally valid

arrangements of bonding (i.e. Lewis Dot structures), then the concept of resonance helps explain why.

• Resonance– The electron arrangement in molecules with

several equally valid Lewis Dot structures is represented by them all, each showing a different arrangement of the true arrangement of electrons.

• Resonance hybrid– Representation of the actual molecule– A composite of the formulas drawn

Shapes of Molecules

• The relative locations of electron pairs around a central atom play a large role in determining a molecule’s 3-D shape.

• Negatively charged electrons repel one another, so electron pairs in different orbitals stay as far apart as possible.

8 -Copyright The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display.

51

Shapes of Molecules• Valence shell electron pair repulsion

(VSEPR) theory– The tendency of electron pairs to

adjust the orientation of their orbitals to maximize the distance between them

– The bonded atoms and unshared pairs are arranged around the central atom as far apart as possible

• Bond angle– A shape is characterized by a bond

angle between the central atom and the atoms bonded to it

Steps for VSEPR Structures1. Draw a Lewis formula.

2. Count the number of atoms bonded to the central atom, and count unshared pairs on the central atom.

3. Add the number of atoms and the number of unshared electron pairs around the central atom. The total indicates the parent structure.

4. The molecular shape is derived from the parent shape by considering only the positions in the structure occupied by bonded atoms.

Polarity of Molecules• Diatomic molecules

– Polarity lies along the plane of the bond

• Polyatomic molecules

– A nonpolar molecule is one that has all nonpolar bonds or one that has polar bonds that cancel out

• Bonds that cancel out have equal polarities in opposite directions

– This happens when:

» A central atom has no unshared electrons

» The atoms around the central atom all have the same electronegativity

– A polar molecule is one that has polar bonds that DO NOT cancel out
