Chapter 6 Chemical Bonding

Types of Chemical Bonding l Chemical bond Mutual electrical attraction between nuclei and valence electrons of different atoms that binds the atoms together – Creates more stable compounds – l Ionic – bonds Electrical attraction between large numbers of cations and anions l Covalent – bonds Sharing electron pairs between two atoms

Types of Chemical Bonds l Determine if bond is ionic or covalent by difference in electronegativities – Electronegativity difference 1. 7 or less is covalent l Bonding between diatomic molecule is covalent l Non-polar covalent - e- shared equally (≤ 0. 3) l Polar covalent - unequal attraction for e(0. 3 - 1. 7) – Electronegativity of 1. 7 to 3. 3 is ionic l Polar - uneven distribution of charge

Problems l Use electronegativity differences to classify bonding between sulfur, S, and the following elements: hydrogen, H; cesium, Cs; and chlorine, Cl. In each pair, which atom will be more negative?

Problems l Use electronegativity differences to classify bonding between chlorine, Cl, and the following elements: calcium, Ca; oxygen, O; and bromine, Br. Indicate the more negative atom in each pair.

Covalent Bonding l Molecule Neutral group of atoms that are covalently bonded together – H 2 O, sugar, O 2 – l Chemical – formula Shows relative number of atoms in a compound l Diatomic Molecule

Energy and Stability l Energy formed released when covalent bond 9

Covalent Bonding l Bond – length Distance between two bonded atoms at minimum potential energy l Atoms vibrate back and forth l Depends on atoms that have combined l Bond energy – Energy required to break a chemical bond

Polarity and Bond Strength l The greater the electronegativity difference, the greater the polarity and the stronger the bond 11

Octet Rule l Chemical compounds tend to form so that each atom, by gaining, losing, or sharing electrons, has an octet of electrons in its highest occupied energy level l Atoms with 8 electrons in outer shell are stable – Except: l Hydrogen and Helium - stable with 2 electrons l Boron - forms bonds surrounded by 6 electrons l Beryllium - forms bonds surrounded by 4 e-

Lewis Structures l Combine 2 electon-dot structures to show shared electrons – Unshared or Lone pairs F F Indicates kind, number, arrangement, and bonds – Shared electrons represented by dash – F-F –

Lewis Structures l Least electronegative atom is central Except hydrogen – Carbon is usually central – l Multiple bond represented Single bond – Double bond – Triple bond –

Lewis Structures 1. Determine the total number of valence electrons in the compound. 2. Arrange the atoms’ symbols to show they are bonded and show valence electrons as dots 3. Compare the number of valence electrons used in the structure to the number available from step 1. 4. Change to a single dash each pair of dots that represents two shared electrons. 5. Be sure that all atoms, with the exception of hydrogen, follow the octet rule.

VSEPR Theory l Valence-Shell Electron-Pair Repulsion l Repulsion between sets of valencelevel electrons surrounding an atom causes sets to be oriented as far apart as possible – Electrons of bonded atoms want to be as far away from each other as possible

VSEPR Theory l CO 2 Shared pairs or oriented as far away from each other as possible – 180° apart – Linear – AB 2 – l BF 3 – – – 120° apart Trigonal-Planar AB 3

VSEPR & Unshared Electrons l Lone pairs occupy space and influence shape of molecule H 2 O →AB 2 E 2 →bent – NH 3 →AB 3 E →trigonal-pyramidal – l Unshared electrons repel electrons more strongly than shared electrons l Double and triple bonds treated like single bonds

Intermolecular Forces l Forces of attraction between molecules l Boiling point is used to measure force of attraction between particles – – Weaker than bonds Boiling points of ionic compounds higher than covalent molecules l Dipole-Dipole Forces l Hydrogen Bonding l London Dispersion Forces

Dipole-Dipole Forces l Strongest molecules l Dipole force is between polar Equal but opposite charges that are separated by short distance – Direction is from positive pole to negative – Represented by arrow pointing toward negative pole with a crossed tail –

Dipole-Dipole Forces l Forces of attraction between polar molecules are short-range forces l Dipole-Dipole forces cause higher boiling points

Hydrogen Bonding l Many bonds with hydrogen are highly polar because of large electronegativity difference l Hydrogen therefore has positive charge in many compounds l Hydrogen atoms bonded to highly electronegative atom is attracted to an unshared pair of electrons – Example →H 2 O l Represented by dotted lines
