Recap – Covalent Bonding

Transcript of Recap – Covalent Bonding

Recap – Covalent Bonding• Electrons are shared, bonds are
directional.• Valence electrons are outer shell
electrons.• Valence of the element give No of
bonds:– 1 H, F, Cl, Br, I– 2 O– 3 N– 4 C CH

Max no. of valence electronsFirst shell holds a maximum of 2 electrons• Hydrogen – max of 2 electrons in bond
Second shell holds a maximum of 8 electrons• C, N, O, F – max of 8 valence electrons /
atom
Third shell holds a maximum of 18 electrons• P, S, Cl – may have 8, 10, 12 valence
electrons / atom.2

Polyatomic Ions• All compounds so far have been
binary; all ions so far have consisted of single atoms with an electrical charge.
• Some ions, however, have more than one type of atom bound together with covalent bonds – polyatomic ions.

Polyatomic Ions and valence
Note the valence of an element tells us the number of bonds it forms in a neutral molecule. It is most useful when 8 electrons are involved (Period 2). What about polyatomic ions?
In general:• If the charge is negative the atom has one less bond than
expected from its valence.• If the charge is positive the atom has one more bond than
expected from its valence.

• Sulfate: SO42-
• Sulfite: SO32-
• Carbonate: CO32-
• Nitrate: NO3-
• Phosphate: PO43-
NamingSee on-line module: http://
firstyear.chem.usyd.edu.au/iChem/inorganic_nomenclature.shtml
In brief: • The element with the lower group no called by
the element name• The name of the other is derived from the
element name and ends in …ide• Use di…, tri…, tetra… as appropriate

Polar Covalent Bonds• Covalent bonds between identical
atoms have electrons shared equally.
H — H Cl — Cl
If atoms are different, one atom may get the greater share of the electron pair.

• By the end of this lecture, you should:− recognise elements in Period 2 have 8 electrons
when bonded− elements in Period 3 have 8, 10 or 12 electrons
when bonded− know that polyatomic ions represent two or more
covalently bonded atoms which have an overall charge
− recognise when a polar covalent bond occurs− appreciate bonding represents a range of
situations from even sharing of electrons to complete transfer of electrons
− be able to complete the worksheet (if you haven’t already done so…)

Questions to complete for next lecture:
1. How do you name PCl3 and PCl5 ?(you may need to refer to the naming module http://firstyear.chem.usyd.edu.au/iChem/inorganic_nomenclature.shtml)
2. Chlorine and oxygen react to form the following polyatomic ions: ClO-, ClO2
-, ClO3-, and ClO4
-. Why can chlorine form ions with the same atoms but different formulas?
3. Draw the electron dot structure of the polyatomic ion H3O+ (Hint, review the formation of NH4
+)4. What condition is necessary for a bond to be polar?5. Classify the bonds between the following pairs of
molecules as ‘covalent’, ‘polar covalent’ or ‘ionic’: H and Br; O and O; Mg and Cl; P and O; I and I
