Properties of Metallic & Ionic Bonds
ØProperties: Ø electricity flows through conductive them: _____ Ø can be hammered into sheets: malleable _______ Øcan be drawn into a wire: _______ ductile
ØAttraction of a metallic cation (+ ion) and valence electrons that are free to move (delocalized) ØDelocalized electrons ØElectrons do not belong to any one atom ØSometimes called a “sea of electrons”
Metallic bond = a positive core surrounded by a “sea” of electrons
Electrical Conductivity • Since the electrons are free to move, if electrons from an outside source are added to a metal wire at one end, the electrons will move through the wire and come out at the other end at the same rate. Thus, this model accounts for the electrical conductivity of metals.
Luster • The free electrons in the "sea" can absorb photons, so metals are opaque. Electrons on the surface can bounce back light at the same frequency as the light that hits the surface. Therefore, the metal appears to be shiny. This model accounts for the luster of metals.
Malleability • The sea of electrons surrounding the cations act like a cushion and so, when the metal is hammered on, the overall composition of the structure of the metal is not harmed or changed. The cations may slide past each other, but the sea of electrons will adjust to the new formation of cations and keep the metal intact. Thus, this model accounts for the malleability and ductility of metals.
Heat Conductivity • Metals usually have high densities. Hence the atoms are closely packed. That makes heat transfer by conduction more efficient. Conduction is the transfer of heat energy by vibration of particles to transfer energy from one end of the metal to the other end. Metals also have the sea of electrons to help them in this conduction. Since electrons are very small compared to the metal ions, they can easily pass through the spaces between the cations and help to transfer heat energy along. Thus, this model accounts for thermal conductivity of metals.
Properties of Ionic Compounds Ø Most form solid crystals (called “salts”) at room temperature Ø Have High melting points (strength of electrostatic attraction) Ø Form electrolytes (ions in solution) which can conduct electricity when dissolved in water (aqueous). Ø When dissolved the electrons are permitted to move freely (compare to ionic compound crystal structure)
Ionic vs Metallic + + = =
Ions are surrounded by ions of opposite charge. A crystal lattice is formed.
ØInvolves the transfer of electron(s) from a metal to a nonmetal. ØThe metal _____ loses electrons becoming positive and is called a _______. cation ____ gains electrons ØThe non-metal _____ negative and is called an becoming _______ anion _______.
Electrostatic Interactions “Opposites attract” Ø Cations and anions are attracted to each other through strong electrostatic attractions – stronger than metallic bonds Ø The result is a stable, low energy ionic compound Ø Ionic compounds are neutral since the charges of the cation and anion cancel
Properties of Covalent Bonds
Covalent Compound Properties of Covalent Compounds… • Have low melting and boiling points • Do not dissolve easily in water • Do not conduct electricity in solutions • Exist as gases, liquids, or solids • Have low electronegativity differences

COVALENT BONDSDOT STRUCTURES AND MOLECULAR GEOMETRY
Covalent Bonds • Occurs when valence electrons are shared between atoms – usually between nonmetallic elements • Covalently bonded compound known as a molecule • These shared electrons are part of the valences of all atoms involved (satisfies octet rule) • Since electrons are shared, no charges appear • Many combinations can occur between two nonmetals – Example: carbon and oxygen can form carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide (CO 2) Carbon Dioxide
Rules for Lewis Structures • 1. Make certain that the bond is a covalent bond by checking the electronegativity difference. Then set up the skeleton structure as follows: – The atom with the lowest electronegativity will tend to go in middle – Place all the other atoms around this central atom – Attach these atoms to the central atom in reasonable fashion with single bonds
Rules for Lewis Structures ► 2. Sum valence electrons ► 3. Complete octets of peripheral atoms ► 4. Place leftover e- on central atom ► 5. If necessary use multiple bonds to fill the center atom's octet.
• Write the structural formulas for: Cl 2 NH 3 CH 4 H 2 O
Polyatomic Ions (K ONLY) • Draw the electron dot structures for: CO 32 NO 3 SO 32 SO 42 -
Single Covalent Bonds • Atoms of some elements attain a noble gas configuration by sharing one pair of electrons between two atoms • When drawing these molecules, a line can represent a pair of shared electrons • Ex: Methane (CH 4)
Multiple Covalent Bonds • Sometimes, atoms share more than one pair of electrons between two atoms • When drawing these molecules, multiple lines can represent pairs of shared electrons • Ex: diatomic oxygen (O 2) and nitrogen (N 2) How many pairs of electrons does each kind of bond share? 3 pairs 1 pair 2 pairs Triple: _____ Single: _____ Double: _____
Draw the electron dot structures for the following • • • CO 2 C 2 H 4 NO 2 SO 2 CS 2
Exceptions to Octet Rule • Beryllium – Has 2 valence electrons – Full with 4 valence electrons – Ex: Be. I 2 • Aluminum – 3 valence electrons – Full with 6 valence electrons – Ex: Al. Cl 3 • Boron – 3 valence electrons – Full with 6 valence electrons – Ex: BH 3
Exceptions to Octet Rule Cont’d • Expanded octets – Some atoms bond so they have more than 8 electrons in their valence – Occurs only around a central nonmetallic atom from period 3 or higher (most commonly sulfur & phosphorous) – Ex: PCl 5 and SF 6 Trigonal Bipyramidal Octahedral
Polar & Nonpolar Covalent Bonds • Covalent bonds share electrons equally and unequally (“tug of war” with electrons) – Which molecule appears “balanced”? H 2 O – Which one does not? O 2 Water (H 2 O) Oxygen (O 2)
Polar Covalent Bonds • Unequal sharing of electrons • Occurs when atoms that share electrons have different electronegativities – Shared electrons spend a greater amount of time at the more electronegative atom • Example: water (H 2 O)
Nonpolar Covalent Bonds • Equal sharing of electrons • Occurs in two scenarios… – No difference in electronegativity between atoms that are sharing (diatomic molecules) • Example: chlorine (Cl 2) – Shape of molecule pulls electrons equally in all directions • Example: methane (CH 4)
Bonding & Electronegativity • Atoms bond according to the difference in their electronegativities • Look at table of EN values and find the difference between the two atoms involved (absolute value) • If EN difference is… • < 0. 5 = nonpolar covalent bond • 0. 5 – 1. 7 = polar covalent bond • >1. 7 = ionic bond

Molecular Shapes Applies to covalent compounds only. Use VSEPR steps (valence shell electron pair repulsion): 1) Identify the central atom as the element that can form the most bonds 2) Draw the Lewis dot structure for the molecule 3) Count total # of electron pairs around the central atom 4) Count # of bonding pairs of electrons around the central atom 5) Count # of lone pairs of electrons around the central atom 6) Look at summary chart, identify shape
Polar & Nonpolar Molecules • Polar molecules have a partial positive and partial negative charge – called a dipole • Dependent upon location and nature of the covalent bonds they contain Molecules are considered polar if they: • Have a polar covalent bond - EN difference between 0. 5 - 1. 7 • Have an asymmetrical shape - trigonal pyramidal - linear (with 2 different elements) - angular (bent) If both criteria are not met, it is either a nonpolar molecule or an ionic compound
Polar & Nonpolar Molecules *IMPORTANT: Polar & nonpolar molecules are different from polar & nonpolar bonds!!! Non-polar molecules have charges that are evenly distributed, due to shape (ex: any diatomic molecule, gasoline) Polar molecules have a partial positive and a partial negative charge (ex: water)
Polar & Nonpolar Molecules Evaluate and identify each molecule as polar covalent or nonpolar covalent: Formula H 2 O CH 4 BCl 3 HCl Has a polar covalent bond x Has an asymmetrical shape x x Identity polar molecule nonpolar molecule
