bonding and structure 1.4/1.5 Flashcards
whats the definition of ionic bonding
when there is a large change in difference in electronegativity. electrons are completely transferred from one atom to another. electrostatic attraction between the oppositely charge ions
properties of ionic bonding
-high melting point (strong electrostatic forces)
- conduct electricity when molten or dissolved (free ions)
-most are soluble in water (polar water can break lattice)
whats the definition of covalent bonding
small difference in electronegativity. the atoms are kept together as they share the same electrons
whats the definition of coordinate bond
both electrons come from the same atom
structure of graphite
brittle hexagonal layers held my van der waals forces. each carbon bonded to 3 others.
properties of graphite
-soft and slippery
-conductor (free ion)
-insoluble
high melting/boiling point
structure of diamond
tetrahedral, each carbon bonded to 4 others.
properties of diamond
-hard due to tetrahedral structure
-poor conductor no free ions
- insoluble
- high melting point/ boiling point
properties of simple covalent structures
- low melting point/ boiling point (weak intermolecular forces)
- dont conduct (no free ions)
- soluble in non polar solutes
definition of electronegativity
the power of an atom to attract the electrons in a covalent bond
which experiences the most repulsion ( lone pairs and bonding pairs)
2 bond pairs 1 loan 1 bond 2 loan pairs

increase in repulsion
how does nuclear charge effect electronegativity
more protons, stronger attraction between nucleus and bonding pair electrons.
as nuclear charge increases the electronegativity of an element increases
how does atomic radius effect electronegativity
if atomic radius increases electronegativity decreases as electrons further away from the nucleus are held less tightly.
how does shielding effect electronegativity
an increased number of shells will result in a decreased electronegativity due to the outer electron being further away from the nucleus therefore held less tightly
how do van der waals forces occur
happens when atoms electrons move to one side cause repulsion in the next molecules electrons to move to side
factors that effect van der waals
-amount of electrons (down group 7 inc)
-number of point of contact
how do permanent dipole dipole occur
polar molecules come close partially positive side attracts partially negative side
factors that effect permanent dipole dipole
larger differences in electronegativity—-stronger dipoles
how do hydrogen bonds occur
when hydrogen bonds with F,O,N
factor that effects hydrogen bonding
larger the electronegativity the stronger dipoles
anomalous properties of water
- ice is less dense than water( ice contains tetrahedral water contains bent)
-high melting/boiling point- hydrogen bonds
whats the definition of metallic bonding
electrostatic attraction between positive metal ions and delocalized electrons
factors effecting metallic bonding
- larger the charge the stronger electrostatic attraction
properties of metals
malleable - layers slide
conductor- sea of delocalised electrons
- insoluble - cant for hydrogen binds with water
