BONDING Flashcards
Define ionic bonding
The electrostatic force of attraction
between oppositely charged ions
formed by electron transfer
Metal atoms ___ electron to form _ve ions
Non-metal atoms ___ electron to form _ve ions
Metal lose to form +ve
Non-metal gain to form -ve
How do smaller ions impact melting points
High melting points
In smaller ions
Because ionic bonding is stronger
Or a higher charge
Define covalent bonding
A shared pair of electrons
Define dative covalent bonding / Coordinate bindi g
A shared pair of electrons
Donated from only one of the bonding atoms
Give the 3 common dative covalent molecules
NH4 +
H3O +
NH3BF3
How is a dative covalent bond represented
An arrow
From the atom providing the lone pair
To the deficient atom
Define metallic bonding
Electron static force of attraction
Between positive metal ions
And delocalised electrons
List the 3 factors effecting the strength of a metallic bond
Proton number
Delocalised electron number (per atom)
Size of ion
How does proton number affect the strength of metallic bonding
More protons
Stronger bond
How does delocalised electron number affect the strength of metallic bonding
More delocalised electrons
Stronger bond
How does ion size affect the strength of metallic bonding
Smaller ion
Stronger bond
Give an example of a giant ionic lattice molecule
Sodium chloride
Magnesium oxide
Give an example of a simple molecular molecule
Iodine
Ice
Carbon dioxide
Water
Methane
Give an example of a macromolecular molecule
Diamond
Graphite
Silicon dioxide
Silicon
Give an example of a giant metallic lattice molecule
Magnesium
Sodium
All metals
Outline the properties of giant ionic lattices
High melting and boiling point
Soluble in water
Poor conductor when solid
Good conductor when molten/dissolved
Crystalline solid
Outline the properties of a simple molecular molecule
Low melting and boiling point
Poor solubility in water
Poor conductor when solid and molten
Mostly gas or liquid
Outline the properties of a macromolecule
High melting and boiling point
Insoluble in water
Diamond/Sand are poor conductors when solid but graphite is good
Poor conductors when molten
Solids
Describe the properties of a metallic molecule
High melting and boiling point
Insoluble in water
Good conductors when solid and molten
Shiny
Malleable
