2 models of bondings and structure Flashcards
Formal charge
Formal charge (FC) is determined for each atom in a structure from:
FC = V – (½B + L)
where V = valence electrons, B = number of bonding electrons, L = number of one pair electrons
The most stable of several Lewis (electron dot) structures is the structure that has: the lowest formal charges, negative values for formal charge on the
more electronegative atoms.
Ionic bonding
Electrostatic attraction between oppostiely charged ions
Physical properties of ionic compound
- lattice structures ➪positively charged ions are packed as closely as possible to the negative
charged ions, while ions of the same charge are as far apart as possible ➪maximizes electrostatic attraction between the ions, while minimizing repulsion - surrounded by 6 other atoms
- low volatility
- Higher temperature (solid at room temperature)
- no conductivity, except at molten or aqeous state
- ionic compounds are soluble in polar solven ➪ partial charges of water is attracted to opposite charge in the lattice (eg: H2O)
Compare the conductvity of AlCl3 (s) and AlCl3(l)
- AlCl3 (s) : no conductivity at solid state ➪ no delocalized electrons at covalent
- AlCl3(l): covalent bonds but no delocalized electrons due to cordiante bonds to Al
Draw the ionic strucure between Na and Cl
a) state the electronegative value and the shape of pure covalent
- 0<x<0.5: non polar bond have equal sharing of bond electrons/dipole moment is cancled ➱temporailiy dipole ➱ they are symmetrical [F2, H2, and O2]
- 0.5<x<1.8: polar covalent are paritally ionic/partial tansfer of unequal sharing of electron➱ permanent dipole ➱ they are unsymmetrical
- 1.8<x: greatest electronegtaive difference➱complete transfer of electrons
Covalent bonds
- electrostatic attraction between a shared pair of electrons and the positively charged
- generally occur between non metals
- Most stable of similar ionization and affinity for electrons by sharing of electrons
- in a covalent strucure, shared electron are attracted to the nulceus of both atoms
- exists as london dispersion force, permanent dipole force, instaneous dipole force and hydrogen bond
Bond length
measure of the distance between the two bonded nuclei
Bond strength
described in terms of bond enthalpy, and is effectively a measure of the energy required to break the bond
Lattice enthalpy
a) write an equation for lattice enthalpy NaCl
energy needed to seperates the ions and the entahlprt change is positive
Describe the relationship between bond strength and length
- bond length increases down the group
- Bond length decreases as the number of electron pair increases because there will be a greater attractive force between
the two nuclei - bond strength increase up the group
- Bond strength increases as the number of electron pair increases as more energy is required to break them
Rules to Expanded octect
rules to drawing the lewis diagram
- (desired number of electrons - actual number)/2= # lone pairs
- draw the central atom by using the least electronegative electron
- complete the octect
desired number of hydrogen= 2
actual e= # valence electron
desired e= valence electrons + extra set of theoritical lone pair
rules for drawing polyatomic ion
- (desired number of electrons - actual number+charge number)/2= # lone pairs
- draw the central atom by using the least electronegative electron
- complete the octect
- check for resonance strucure
*indivisual charge -ve/extra e are distributed to the surrounding atoms to make full valence electrons. Cooridnate dative bond is from the central atom to make bondings with the surrounding atom.
*charge +ve/ electron are removed from sourrounding atoms, therefore central atom needs to donate an coordinate bond. You need to draw an arrow indicating where the coordinate bond came from.
2)Draw an resonance structure of sulfate SO42-
3)find its bond order
Draw
a) BeCl2
b) BF3
c)BF3NH3
- incomplete octect, they are electron deficient and have tendency to accept electron pair from NH2 or H20
Coordinate bond
- dative bond, covalent bond in which both the shared electrons are provided by one of the atoms.
Drawing expanded octect
1) number of valence electrons in the central atom is the number of bonds/surrounding atoms attached
find the bond order of C~O bond in CH3CO2-
- resonance strucure with bond order of 1.5
- shorter than single bond and longer than double bond
(#bond involved in coordinate bond)-(# atoms bonded)/2
Draw
a)NO2
No is an electron deficient central atom, 0.5 bond mean the central atom has radical.
Determine which molecule has the strongest bond: ethane, ethyne and ethyne
Electrogentive value for central atom
F>O>CL>N
Rules to drawing coordiante covalent bond
a) (NH4)+1
b)(H3O)+
c)CO
d)CH3OOH
e)HCOOH
6) CH3CH2COOH
- try using the HONC rule first
- if Honk rule dosent work then that means there is coorindate bond
- put electrons away from each other
- look at the functional group to identigy the structure, eg:COOH, OH
- make sure to put lone pairs of electron in atoms that does not meet the desired number of electrons
\
electron domain
Describes the number of electrons in the valence shell. They may be occupied by lone pairs, single, doubleor triple bonds. Includes number of bonding pairs and non-bonding pairs surrounding the central molecule
Draw
a) Mgcl2
b)AlCl3
Al2O3
