Unit 10: Chemical Bonding Section 1: Ionic and Covalent Bonding
Chemical Bonds • Forces that hold atoms or ions together to make all molecules and compounds • There are two main type of bonds • Ionic bonds and covalent bonds
Ionic Bonds • Bonds achieved by transferring valence electrons • Due to a positive (metal) and negative (nonmetal) attraction
The Lewis Symbol • In ionic bonding, atoms gain and lose electrons to achieve a noble gas electron configuration (a stable state) • Lewis symbols use dots to represent an element’s number of valence electrons • Na has 1 valence electron Na • Cl has 7 valence electrons Cl • The order for applying dots is right, left, top, bottom, right, left, top, and bottom • The maximum dots possible is 8, and the least dots possible is 1
Using the Lewis Symbol for Ionic Bonds • sodium and chlorine NaCl • Na Cl • magnesium and chlorine MgCl2 • Mg Cl Cl • The 1st element needs to get rid of its valence electrons, and the 2nd element needs to gain a total of eight valence electrons in order to be complete
Covalent Bonds • Bonds achieved by sharing valence electrons • A bond between two nonmetals (two negatively charged atoms) • There are two types of covalent bonds: nonpolar covalent and polar covalent • Nonpolar covalent bonds have equally shared valence electrons, where the attraction is even throughout • Polar covalent bonds have unequally shared valence electron, where the attraction is being pulled more toward the atom with the higher electronegativity
Determining Polarity • If the electronegativity difference falls between 0.0 to 0.2, the bond is nonpolar covalent • If the electronegativity difference falls between 0.3 to 1.4, the bond is polar covalent • If the electronegativity difference is greater than 1.5, the bond is ionic
Determining Polarity • Determine the polarity of MgCl2 • Mg = 1.2 and Cl = 3.0, so 3.0 – 1.2 = 1.8 IONIC
Using the Lewis Symbol for Covalent Bonds • Lewis structure for SiH4 H H H Si H H Si H H H • The goal is to get all the unpaired valence electrons to bond together
