AS.5 Bonding Flashcards
Metallic bonds
electrostatic attraction between positively charged ions and a sea of delocalised electrons
diagram to represent metallic bonds
cations relative charge in a circle
sea of delocalised electrons represented by appropriate number of minuses
giant
continous bonds
lattice
regular and repeating pattern
giant metallic lattice - melting and boiling point
very high
strong metallic bonds throughout structure
giant metallic lattice - electrical conductivity
very high
delocalised electrons are free to move and carry charge
giant metallic lattice - solubility
insoluble
some may react with water
comparing the strength of metallic bonds
more e- and higher nucleur charge
stronger electrostatic attraction
stronger metallic bond
higher melting/boiling point
ionic bonds
electrostatic attraction between two oppositely charged ions
dot and cross ionic
square brackets with charge in top right corner
no dots or crosses on metal
appropriate dots and crosses on non-metal
number in front to indicate how many
why do metals and non metals lose/gain electrons
full outer shell- more stable
giant ionic lattice - melting and boiling point
high
strong ionic bonds throughout
giant ionic lattice - electrical conductivity
solids do not conduct - ions are in fixed position - not mobile
molten/aqueous do conduct - ions are free to move
Covalent bond
Strong electrostatic attraction between a shared pair of electrons and the nuclei of the 2 bonded atoms
Dative covalent bonds
Both electrons in the covalent bond come from one of the atoms
The atom giving the electron pair must have a lone pair
The atom accepting the lone pair must have empty orbital space
Why do molecules have a specific 3D shape
Result in minimum amount of repulsion between electron pairs
Repulsion
MOST
Lone pair to lone pair
Lone pair to bond pair
Bond pair to bond pair
