Bonding Flashcards
When two or more elements combine to form a molecule or compound, we say that a —, or multiple —, have formed
bond;bonds
The three types of bonds
Ionic, covalent, hydrogen
An ionic bond
A compound composed of —- (positive charge) and — (negative charge
metals or cations; nonmetals or anions
Where do the charges on a ionic bond come from
oxidation numbers
1A: +1
2A: +2
3A: +3
4A: +/- 4
5A: -3
6A: -2
7A: -1
8A: 0 (Noble gases)
what are these oxidation numbers normally composed of
elements from group 1A and 2A combined with elements from 6A and 7A
Ionic bonds are electrically neutral:
No —
— and — charges attract each other through electrostatic forces
The electrostatic forces that hold ions together in ionic compounds are called —–
charge
positive and negative
ionic bonds
Example:
Sodium Chloride
Na- 1 valence electron
Cl- 7 valence electrons
only need one of each ion for the bond, draw with arrows
Example:
Potassium sulfide
K- 1 valence electron
S- 6 valence electrons
Therefore, in order to make the bond work, you need two potassium ions and one sulfur ion
A chemical formula, for ionic compounds, shows the amount of — contained in a compound in its smallest form
Examples of these
atoms
NaCl, and K2S
1) Most ionic compounds are — at room temperature
2) arranged in —
3) Attracted — to each of its neighbors and have very — structures
4) Have — melting points and conduct —- well when dissolved in water
solids
patterns
strongly, stable
high, electricity
Covalent bonds
1) atoms that are held together by sharing electrons “— —”
2) Form —-, most commonly are —- (two molecules)
3) A compound composed of molecules is called a — —
4) Are normally form from two or more what?
Tug-of-war
molecules, diatomic
molecular compound
non-metals
Example of covalent bonds
2 hydrogen atoms - 2 electrons
1 oxygen atom - 6 electrons
Need two hydrogens to share two electrons with oxygen (draw lines between)
Water (H2O)
Example of covalent
1 nitrogen - 5 electrons
3 hydrogens - 3 electrons
Need three hydrogens to bond with one nitrogen by lines
NH3 (Ammonia)
Molecular formulas of covalent
1) Chemical formula of a — —
2) Similar to chemical formulas, except they are for — instead of ionic compounds
3) Water: H2O
Ammonia: NH3
molecular compound
molecules
Hydrogen bonding:
1) Bonds that involve the bonding of —- and a very electronegative molecule containing, —, —, or —- that is already bonded to a hydrogen atom
hydrogen; nitrogen, oxygen, and fluorine
