Bonding And Shapes Of Molecules Flashcards
What is ionic bonding
The electrostatic attrition between oppositely charged ions formed by electron transfer in a lattice

Where does ionic bonding take place in o
Metal to non metal
Are positive ions smaller or bigger compared to atoms and why
Smaller
Because it has one less shell of electrons
Ratio of P:e has increased so there is a greater net force on remaining electrons
Are negative ions smaller or bigger compared to atoms and why
Larger
More electrons but same number of protons
Nucleus electron attrition is less
Are negative ions smaller or bigger compared to atoms and why
Larger
More electrons but same number of protons
Nucleus electron attrition is less
Properties of ionic compounds
Solid @ room temp
Conduct electricity when molten/dissolved
Brittle shatter easily
What is the structure of an ionic compound and give an example
Giant ionic lattice
Sodium chloride magnesium oxide
Properties of an ionic lattice
High mp/bp due to the strong electrostatic forces
Soluble in water
Poorconductivity when solid
Good conductivity when molten
Properties of an ionic lattice
High mp/bp due to the strong electrostatic forces
Soluble in water
Poorconductivity when solid
Good conductivity when molten
What is a covalent bond
Shared pair of electrons
What IS A dative covalent bond/ coordinate bond
Shared pair of electrons with both electrons supplied by one atom
Atom accepting electron pair
Electron deficient
Atom donating electron pair
Lone pair
When drawing a CBq with an arrow, the direction of arrow goes from a to b
a - atom providing lone pair
b - atom that is deficient
Structures of a covalent bond and examples
Simple molecular eg iodine and ice
Macromelecular eg diamond and graphite
What do simple molecular structures contain and what are the properties
Intermolecular forces
Low mp/bp due to weak intermolecular forces
Poor solubility in water
Can’t conduct
Properties macromelecular
High mp I bp due to strong CB
Insoluble
Diamonds cannot conduct when sold
Graphite can conduct when solid
Cannot conduct when molten
What is metallic bonding
Attraction between delocalised electron And positive ions arranged in a lattice
