Define chemical bond.
Explain why most atoms form chemical bonds.
State the octet rule.
Discuss ionic, covalent, and metallic bonding.

electronegativity differences.
6. Draw complete Lewis dot diagrams.
7. Properly assign bonds and show valence
electrons for most compounds.
Chemical Bonding
There are more than 100 elements
From these thousands of compounds are
formed w/bonds
Chemical bond – a mutual electrical attraction
btwn nuclei and valence e- of different atoms
Nucleus are + and e- are –
Two atoms coming together
Why do elements want to bond together?
To become stable
To complete their valence shell
Lewis Dot Diagrams
The chemical symbol represents the kernel
(center of the atoms)
Each dot represents a valence e Ions are put in brackets [Na]+
Lewis Dot Diagrams (cont.)
ex.
Na
Mg
Al
S
F
Ar
Si
P
Octet Rule
The tendency of atoms to rearrange
themselves into a stable octet (8 e-)
All atoms want to complete their “octet”
and be configured like a Noble Gas.
Example: Neon
For this to happen the position of 1 or more
e- in the valence shell is altered
Lost, gained, or shared
Ionic Bonding
A bond formed between a metal and a non-metal
Metals lose eNon-metals gain ee- in valence shell of metals are TRANSFERRED to
valence shell of non-metals
Electrostatic force of attraction btwn oppositely
charged particles (+ and -)
Want a valence shell of s2p6
Except He and H

which an ionic compound can be formed

Ionic bonds
Bond resulting from
electrostatic attraction
btwn cations and anions
electrons are
TRANSFERRED
+ and – attract together
Cations – lose e- (+)
Anions – gain e- (-)
As a result of
electrostatic
attraction
ex. NaCl, MgF2, KCl

Covalent Bonds
Bond resulting
from the SHARING
of e- pairs btwn 2
atoms
Orbital of e- from 1
element overlaps
orbital of e- from
another element
e- are SHARED
Ionic bonds vs. Covalent bonds
Ionic bond
Strong
+ and -
High mp
Because of strength
Hard and brittle
Conduct electricity
in H2O
Break into ions
Covalent bond
Weaker
molecules
Low mp
B/o weak bonds
Gases
Do NOT conduct
Don’t break up into
ions
Consider Chloride
HONC 1234
Remember the HONC 1234 Rule
H = 1 bond
O = 2 bonds
N = 3 bonds
C = 4 bonds
Polar-covalent
bond in which the atoms have an
unequal attraction for the shared e One end is more + and the other end is
more -
Examples
Nitrogen reacts with fluoride to form
nitrogen trifluoride
Carbon reacts with chloride to form
carbon tetrafluoride
Ionic, covalent, or polar?
ionic or covalent bonds
can be estimated by
calculating the
difference in
electronegativities
Difference of 1.7 or
less is covalent
Difference of 0 to
0.3 are nonpolar
covalent
Difference of 0.3 to
1.7 is polar
covalent
Difference of higher
than 1.7 is ionic
Examples
Metallic Bonding
A metal and a metal
Outer E level orbitals overlap and allow
e- to roam freely throughout the entire
metal
Sea of e-
Characteristics of metallic bonds
Freedom of e- to move accounts for high
electrical and thermal conductivity
Many orbitals, separated by small E
differences allows metals to absorb a
wide range of light frequencies
e- fall back to lower E levels and give off E as
light
Shiny (luster)
Characteristics of metallic bonds
Malleability – ability to be hammered or
beaten into thin sheets
Ductility – ability to be drawn or pulled into
a wire
This can happen b/c metallic bonding is the
same in all directions
One plane of atoms can slide past another
w/out breaking bonds
Strength varies w/nuclear charge and # of
e- in the sea
Polyatomic Ions
Charged group of covalently bonded atoms
An ion made up of more than one atom
Very strong covalent bonds hold them
together
Behave as a SINGLE atom w/a charge
ex.
hydroxide OHnitrate NO3phosphate PO4-3
sulfate SO4-2
carbonate CO3-2
ammonium NH4+
Lewis Dot Diagrams for molecules
and polyatomic ions
Steps
1. Count total valence e- for all atoms
CO2
C = 4 e-(1) = 4 eO = 6 e-(2) = 12 eTotal = 16 e-
2. Count the # of octet e- each atom wants
All want 8 e- except H
C is 1 octet = 8
O is 1 octet = 8(2)
Total = 24 e-
Lewis Dot Diagrams for molecules
and polyatomic ions
3. Subtract valence e- from octet e- and this
equals bonding e 4. Divide bonding e- by 2
This gives you the number of bonds
5. Draw atoms in the arrangement that they
bond
6. Find the lone pairs by subtracting bonding efrom valence e 7. Make sure that each e- is satisfied with an
octet
