Transcript of Unit 4: BONDING Why do elements form bonds????. I. Energy and Bonds Elements form bonds to become...
I. Energy and Bonds
• Elements form bonds to become more stable
• Forming bonds releases energy
• Breaking bonds absorbs energy
• Therefore:– Forming a bond is…– Breaking a bond is…
II. Types of Bonds
• Bond = attractive force that hold elements attractive force that hold elements togethertogether
• There are 3 major types of bonds formed between elements
• Each type of bond has different attractions and different properties
Identifying Bond Types…
• A] Metallic bonds: present within a metal
• B] Ionic bonds: metal + nonmetal– Cations and anions form neutral substances
– Electrons are given/taken to form ions
• C] Covalent: nonmetals sharing electrons– No actual charges formed
III. Lewis Dot Structures
• Lewis dot diagrams show number and relative placement of valence electrons
• Uses element symbol and dots in pattern

A. Single Elements
• Count number of valence electrons [look at “s” and “p” electrons]
• Place in pattern around element symbol
• Ex.]
B. Ions and Ionic Compounds
• Determine the charge of the ion within the compound [look at oxidation numbers on PT]– Positive ions have NO valence electrons!– Negative ions have 8 valence electrons!
• Arrange with opposite charges connecting
Ex.] NaCl MgCl2
C. Covalent Structures• Determine the number of valence electrons
for each element involved
• Choose a central atom [least popular]
• Organize remaining atoms symmetrically
• Form bonds to provide each element with 8 valence electrons
• May use multiple bonds for each element to see 8
Ex.] H2 O2 N2
D. The Octet Rule
• Octet = eight valence electrons on an atom– valence electrons are those in “s” and “p”
sublevels
• Elements with 8 valence electrons are very stable and usually not reactive!
– What group has all 8 valence electrons naturally?
– Which group of metals is most reactive?
– Which nonmetals are most reactive?
Octets, continued…
• Since all elements want 8 electrons, each atom will gain or lose electrons to “see” 8 valence electrons– Metals lose electrons– nonmetals gain electrons
• Ex.] NaCl MgO
Exceptions to Octet Rule
Some need less than 8:– H, He, B
Some can take more than 8, creating an expanded octet:
– S, P, etc.
IV. Metallic Bonds
• Metallic Bonds = special bonds between the atoms within a metal sample
• Have fixed nuclei with mobile electrons
• “Sea of Mobile Electrons”
• Give metals special properties: – Malleability -- Good Conductivity– Ductility

V. Covalent Bonds
• Covalent bonds are formed between NONMETALS who share electrons
• Some nonmetals can form more than one bond between the same 2 elements
• Different types of covalent bonding, due to symmetry and electronegativity values
• No formal charge, or ions, formed
Properties of Covalent Compounds
• All phases present at STP
• Low boiling and melting points
• Low density• High vapor pressure,
or volatility• Poor conductors of
heat and electricity
a. Nonpolar Covalent Bonds
• Nonpolar = equal sharing
• Electrons shared within a bond are “seen” equally by both atoms
• Between same atoms ONLY!
b. Multiple Bonds
1]Single Bonds = 2 e- shared between 2 atoms
• 1 e- from each element• Not very strong• Longest covalent bond• Examples:
– some diatomics
Multiple Bonds, cont.
2] Double Bonds = 4 e- shared between 2 atoms
• 2 e- from each element • Stronger and shorter
than single bonds• Examples:
– O2
Multiple bonds cont’.
3] Triple bonds = 6 e- shared between 2 atoms
• 3 e- from each element• Strongest and shortest
bond type• Examples:
– N2

c. Polar Bonds
Polar bondsPolar bonds are formed between atoms having differences in EN
o Atoms of different EN will have different attractions for the bonding electrons
o The atom with the higher EN will have a stronger attraction for the bonding electrons
• Most polar bonds are ‘polarized’ meaning that the electrons spend more time closer to the atom with the higher EN and less time near the atom of a lower EN
Polar Bonds cont’
• Molecules with polar bonds will have “Dipoles”
• Dipoles = a charge imbalance within a bond created by different attractions for the bonding electrons
d. Coordinate Covalent Bonds
Coordinate covalent bonds
bonds formed when only one element contributes electrons to the bond
Only in special cases:
d. Network Covalent Bonds
Network covalent bonds = these are very strong bonds formed within a network solid between atoms of the same element or molecule
• Special cases:
VI. Molecular Structures
• Molecular shapes depend upon the distribution of electrons number of bonds formed
• Shapes are 3-Dimensional
• http://www2.chemistry.msu.edu/faculty/reusch/virttxtjml/models.htm#start
a. Nonpolar Molecules• Nonpolar bondsNonpolar bonds are
formed only between atoms having the same EN
• Only diatomic elements have true nonpolar bonds
• All bonding electrons are shared equally between atoms of the same EN
• Ex. Diatomic molecules…
Nonpolar, cont’
• Even polar bonds can create nonpolar molecules…
• Nonpolar molecules are SYMMERTICAL!
• Electrons are evenly distributed throughout the molecule, making it nonpolar!
Symmetrical =
Nonpolar
•Ex.] CF4
b. Polar Molecules
• Polar Molecules have an asymmetric pull of electrons throughout the molecule
• Nonbonding electrons from lone pairs also create an asymmetric pull within the molecule
Asymmetric =
Polar
•Ex.] H2O
c. Molecular Shapes, in 3D!
• Atoms are 3-dimensional substances that create 3-D structures when bonding
• Both the bonds and the lone pair [nonbinding] electrons play a role in determining the shape of a molecule
Bonding/Molecular Shape Terms
• DomainDomain = placement of electrons around an atom
• Bonding DomainBonding Domain = includes all electrons participating in a bond; counts as one area of space
• Nonbonding DomainNonbonding Domain = space occupied by a lone pair of electrons [nonbonding]
Additional [secret] information:the VSEPR Theory
• VSEPR = Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion
– This theory explains why the electrons within the bonds and the nonbonding electrons move as far apart as possible, creating a structure in 3-dimensional space
• Nonbonding pairs sometimes have a greater effect than single bonds… let’s see!

VII. Ionic Bonds
• Ionic bonds = a bond formed due to the transfer of electrons between metals and nonmetals
• Attractions [bonds] occur between ions [charged atoms that have gained/lost electrons]
• CationsCations = positive ions; have _______e-– Metals form cations
• AnionsAnions = negative ions; have ______e-– Nonmetals form anions
Properties of Ionic Bonds
• High melting/boiling points
• Hard, but brittle crystals [solids]
• Dissolve in polar solvent
• Conduct electricity as liquid or in solution, but NOT as a solid
Properties cont.
• Ionic substances have high heats of vaporization
• Low vapor pressure; not very volatile
• Most dissolve in water to form (+) and (-) ions, or electrolytes
A. Electronegativity Differences
Large differences in EN = Ionic BondsIonic Bonds When there is a larger difference in EN, the element with
the higher EN will most likely to “see” the bonding electrons more, or share them less
Ionic bonds have the greatest differences in EN! • reinforced by the fact that one of the elements will actually
TAKE the electrons instead of sharing them
Covalent Bonds and EN
• Even though nonmetals have relatively low EN in general, they do do have slight differences
• The only time there is no EN difference between atoms is for Diatomic elements
• This means that the electrons in the bond(s) between the diatomic elements will be shared equally
Rankings of EN DifferencesSee Figure 6-11, page 107, and figure 6-14, page 109
0 0.3 1.7 >1.9
Diatomic Nonpolar Polar Ionic Elements Covalent Covalent Bonds
Polar bonds in Molecules• Arrows point to the element with the highest EN• Use lower case Greek letter delta to represent
partial charges: δ+ or δ-• Partially negative = more Electronegative atom!
b. Polyatomic Ions
• See Table E!!!• Have BOTH covalent and ionic properties• Covalent bonds hold the atoms together
within the ion• Overall, the structure has lost/gained
electrons to have a charge• Share electrons within, has brackets and
charges for the Lewis Structure
E. Resonance Structures
• Lewis dot structures with double-bond electrons that rotate from one pair to another
• Overall structure = hybrid of all resonance structures

VIII. Intermolecular Forces
• INTRAmolecular forces: forces between atoms– Bonds = forces between the atoms
• INTERmolecular forces: forces between molecules– Four major variations
– Depends on the type of molecules or ions involved
1] Molecule-Ion Attractions:
Definition:
Invisible force of attraction holding polar molecules and ions together in a solution
Need: polar molecules as solvent and ionic compound [create (+) and (-) ions]
Molecule-ion forces…
• The strongest of all the intermolecular forces!– Positive ion attracted to partially negative end
of polar molecule– Negative ion attracted to partially positive end
of polar molecule– Orientation of polar molecules important!!!!– Ex.] Solution of NaCl(aq)
2] Dipole-Dipole Attractions
• Definition:
Partially positive and partially negative ends of polar molecules develop attractive forces
Need: polar molecules as liquid
Dipole-Dipole forces…• Occur within a sample of polar molecules
• Attraction occurs between partially positive ends of several of same polar molecules– Partially positive end of the molecule– near the
atom with lower EN • [bonding electrons pulled away from it]
– Partially negative end of molecule—near the atom with the highest EN
• [pulls bonding electrons towards it]
• Ex.] HCl, HBr, HI
3] Hydrogen Bonding
• Definition:
Special type of dipole-dipole forces occurring between polar molecules containing hydrogen and fluorine, oxygen, or nitrogen
Ex.] HF, H2O, and NH3
Hydrogen Bonding…• Stronger than Dipole-Dipole, but weaker than
actual bonds forming• Hydrogen [partially (+)] strongly attracted to
F, O, or N [partially (-)] end of molecule• F, O, and N have high EN, small radii, and strong
pull on bonding electrons• Responsible for:
– Abnormally high boiling point of water– Larger volume of water in liquid phase
4] Weak, London Dispersion, or Van der Waals Forces
• Definition:
Weak attractive forces present between nonpolar molecules
Need:
Nonpolar, symmetric molecules
Weak, LD, or VdW forces…
• Weakest attractive forces
• Created when nonpolar atoms/molecules have small, temporary dipoles formed via distribution of electrons
• Change as…– Distance between molecules increase, forces
decrease– Mass of molecules increase, forces increase
“Special effects” of weak/LD/VdW forces…
• Reason why diatomic elements of group 17 have increasing boiling points from top to bottom– Remember phases of group 17:
– gas, gas, liquid, solid, solid
• Cause hydrocarbons of fossil fuels to have increasing boiling points as their size and mass increase
– Methane is a gas, gasoline is a liquid, grease is a solid at the same temperatures
