Bonding Flashcards
Give the diagram (arrow) that shows how structure relates to bonding and bonding relates to structure
Check physical flashcards to see if you got it right
What is a chemical bond?
An attractive force holding together two or more atoms, molecules or ions
When atoms bond, what are they trying to form?
A noble gas configuration
How do elements achieve a noble gas configuration?
By sharing, loosing or gaining electrons
List the types of bonding
- Covalent bonding
- Ionic bonding
- Metallic bonding
- Dative covalent bonding
What are the two types of covalent bonding?
Simple molecular covalent bonding and giant molecular covalent bonding
What is bonded in an ionic bond?
Metals and Non-metals
What is bonded in covalent (molecular) bonding?
Two non-metals
What is bonded in metallic bonding?
Metals
Describe the bonding in ionic compounds
Ionic bonding between oppositely charged IONS
Bonding between metals ( positive charge) and non metals (negative charge)
Give examples of ionic compounds
NaCl and K2CO3
What is the structure of ionic bonds?
Giant ionic lattice
List the properties of ionic bonds? (6)
- High melting point
- Don’t conduct electricity when solid due to rigidity of IONS so they cant move
- however, they conduct electricity when molten (liquid) because IONS are free to move so they can conduct electricity
- The higher the charge, the stronger the ionic bond
- The smaller the ion, the stronger the ionic bond
They require lots of energy to overcome the force of attraction - Strong electrostatic forces of attraction between oppositely charged ions
What are you NOT expected to talk about when describing ionic bonds
- Metallic bonds
- Electronegativity
- Dipoles
- Electrons moving
List four factors that determine stronger ionic bonds
• Smaller ionic radius
Greater ionic charge, the greater charge density
• Stronger electrostatic forces of attraction between oppositely charged ions
• more exothermic (more negative) lattice enthalpy
Give another type of crystal structure
Metals
Describe the bonding between metals
Metallic bonding due to attraction between positively charged metal ions and a ‘sea’ of de localized electrons
What is the structure of metals?
Giant metallic lattice
What determines the strength of a metallic bond
•The higher the positive charge on the metal ion, the stronger the metallic bond
• Smaller the ion the higher the charge density and the stronger the metallic bond
Give the properties of metals
• High melting point
• Conduct electricity when solid
• When molten (liquid) they are good heat conductors
• Higher the charge on the ions, the stronger the bonds
Give the reasons for the properties in metals
• Strong electrostatic forces of attraction between positively charged metal ions and a sea of delocalized electrons
• A sea of delocalized electrons
Why can metals be beaten to different shapes?
They are are malleable
Give reasons for why metals are malleable
Layers of atoms can fairly easily slide over each other without breaking the bonds
List the types of intermolecular forces
• Permanent dipole dipole interaction
• Vanderwaals forces of attraction
• Hydrogen bonds
