Bonding & Chemical NomenclatureChapter 8 & 9
Some Key Terms
1. Ionic Bond – the electrostatic attraction of oppositely charged particles (cations & anions)
2. Alloy – a homogeneous mixture of metals3. Anion – a negatively charged ion – gained
electrons to become negative4. Cation – a positively charged ion – lost
electrons to become positive5. Electrolyte – a solution that conducts electricity6. Formula unit – the simplest piece of an ionic
compound
Key Terms cont.
7. Covalent bond – results from the sharing of electrons
8. Chemical Formula – a formula that indicates the relative #’s of atoms of each kind in a chemical compound. Uses atomic symbols and numerical subscripts. Ex. NaCl, Mg(OH)2
9. Polyatomic Ion – A charged group of covalently bonded atoms. Contains two or more different elements
10. Polar Covalent – unequal sharing of electrons in a covalent bond
Key Terms cont.
11. Molecule – Neutral group of atoms held together by covalent bonds.
12. Oxidation number - # assigned to an atom in a molecular compound or ion that indicates its distribution of electrons (charge)
13. Octet rule – Chemical compounds tend to form so that each atom has an octet (8) electrons in the highest energy level except for a few of the smallest atoms.
Ionic Bonding
• An ionic bond is the electrostatic attraction of oppositely charged particles (cations and anions)
• It involves the transfer of electrons• Usually forms between a metal and a
nonmetal• Compounds with ionic bonds are called
ionic compounds or salts• An individual unit of an ionic compound is
called a formula unit
What are ions?
• Ions are atoms that have lost or gained electrons to become positively or negatively charged.
• Metals tend to form positively charged ions called cations
• Nonmetals tend to form negatively charged ions called anions.
• To determine the charge of an ion we must look at the arrangement of VALENCE ELECTRONS.
Review of Lewis Dot Diagrams
• Lewis dot diagrams show an elements valence electrons as dots around the element’s symbol.
• To determine valence electrons for main group elements refer to the “A” group number.
• REMEMBER – a valence electron is an electron in the outermost energy level
Formation of Ions• Label your periodic table with the following
charges above each group:• Group 1A = +1• Group 2A = +2• Group 3A = +3• Group 4A = +/-4• Group 5A = -3• Group 6A = -2• Group 7A = -1• Group 8A = 0
Polyatomic ions
• A charged group of covalently bonded atoms. Contains two or more different elements
• A list of these can be found on your reference sheet
• A more complete list is found in your book on p. 224
Characteristics of Ionic Compounds
• Another name for an ionic compound is salt• Crystalline solids at room temp., regular
repeating 3D pattern called crystal lattice.• High melting and boiling points• Generally soluble in water• Conduct electricity when molten or in solution• Brittle
Covalent Bonding
• Covalent bonds occur when atoms (usually 2 nonmetals) share electrons.
• Molecules that contain covalent bonds are called molecular compounds.
• An individual unit of a molecular compound is referred to as a molecule
Characteristics of Molecular Compounds (covalent)
• Found as amorphous solids, liquids, and gases
• Low melting and boiling points
• Generally only slightly soluble to insoluble in water
• Generally do not conduct electricity when molten or in solution
Metallic Bonding
• Scientists believe that pure metals are made up of closely packed cations. In these structures, electrons are free to move between atoms. This is often used to explain why metals conduct electricity.
• Electron Sea Model
Naming Binary IonicInvolves a metal and a nonmetal1. Name the metal2. Name the nonmetal and change the
ending to –ide.
ExamplesNaCl
K2O
BaF2
Naming Binary Ionic with transition metals
1. Name the metal
2. Using a roman numeral write the oxidation number of the metal in parenthesis. To get the oxidation number uncriss-cross the charges.
3. Name the nonmetal and change the ending to –ide
Examples
CuBr2
Fe2O3
FeO
Still Metal – Nonmetal. We use this method only if the metal can have a variable charge/oxidation number. The majority of these will be transition metals. Exceptions to memorize: Silver (Ag+1), cadmium (Cd+2), zinc (Zn+2)
Naming Ionic with Polyatomic Ions
1. Name the metal 2. Name the polyatomic ion3. Be sure to use a roman numeral if it is
necessary (transition metals)
Examples
LiNO3
KMnO4
Na2CO3
FeSO4
Writing Formulas for Ionic Compounds
1. Write the symbol and charge for the metal (if it is a transition metal use the Roman Numeral in the name for the charge)
2. Write the symbol and charge for the nonmetal or polyatomic ion.
3. Criss-cross the charges to form the neutral compound
Ex. Sodium chloride
Magnesium phosphate
Gold (III) chloride
Naming Binary Molecular (covalent) Compounds
Involves a bond b/w 2 nonmetals1. Name the 1st nonmetal. Use a prefix if there is
more than one.2. Name the 2nd nonmetal ALWAYS use a prefix.
Change the ending to –ide.
ExamplesNO
P2O5
SO3
Prefixes
1 mono- 6 hexa-
2 di- 7 hepta-
3 tri- 8 octa-
4 tetra- 9 nona-
5 penta- 10 deca-
Writing Molecular (covalent) compounds
1. Write the symbol for each nonmetal
2. Write a subscript on the right of each metal according to the prefix it has in the name. If there is not a prefix then no subscript is needed.
Ex. carbon dioxide
dinitrogen pentaoxide
nitrogen monoxide
Naming Binary Acids
• Acids generally start with Hydrogen
1.Binary Acids (H with one element)– Use the prefix hydro-– Then add the name of the second element
and change the ending to –ic acid– HCl hydrochloric acid– HBr hydrobromic acid– HI hydroiodic acid
Naming Acids with Polyatomic Ions
• Hydrogen with a polyatomic ion (group of atoms with a charge)– Identify the polyatomic ion– Change the ending accordingly:
• -ate to –ic acid• -ite to -ous acid• (Do NOT use the prefix Hydro-)
• H2SO4 sulfuric acid
• HNO3 nitric acid
• HNO2 nitrous acid
