Bonding and Organic Flashcards

1
Q

What is metallic bonding and how is it made

A

Electrostatic attraction between positve cations and delocalised electrons
- Delocaliserd electrons free to move in 3-D lattice, attraction non-directional

Made through atoms losing electrons, becoming cations
- Electrons delocalise, where cations in fixed position, electrons aren’t

Q

What is metallic bonding malleability and ductility

A

Malleable and ductile

Force causes cations to roll over on eachother
- Layers of cations still held together by delocalised electrons between them
- Enough stress applied = Permanent change in position
- Therefore size of force required to deform bond = Large

Q

What is ionic bonding and how is it made

A

- Strong electrostatic force of attraction between oppositely charged ions

Made through electron being transferred from metal to non-metal, so both can have full outer shell (Octet Rule)
- Anions & Cations form 3-D crystal lattice, held together by strong electrostatic forces

Q

How is covalent molecular bonds made

A

Non-Metallic atoms have high number of valence electrons, tend to share rather then transfer atoms
- Molecules formed more stable then regular atoms (Full outer shell)
- Positively charged nuclei of neighbouring atoms have attraction for shared electrons, keeps atoms held together in molecule (Electrostatic attraction)

  • Is direction bond, electrons aligned along axis between atoms that share electrons
