CHEMICAL BONDING
INTRODUCTION
This Powerpoint show is one of several produced to help students
understand selected GCSE Chemistry topics. It is based on the requirements
of the AQA specification but is suitable for other examination boards.
Individual students may use the material at home for revision purposes and
it can also prove useful for classroom teaching with an interactive white
board.
Accompanying notes on this, and the full range of AS and A2 Chemistry
topics, are available from the KNOCKHARDY WEBSITE at...
www.knockhardy.org.uk
All diagrams and animations in this Powerpoint are original and
created by Jonathan Hopton. Permission must be obtained for their
use in any commercial work.
CHEMICAL BONDING
OVERVIEW
The following slides illustrate how the three main chemical
bonds are formed.
The physical properties of elements and compounds are
influenced by the type of bonding.
To understand how structure and bonding affects the
physical properties of elements and compounds, view the
powerpoint ‘STRUCTURE & BONDING’ available from the
KNOCKHARDY SCIENCE GCSE WEBSITE at...
www.knockhardy.org.uk/gcse.htm
WHAT IS BONDING?
Very few substances consist of single atoms.
The NOBLE GASES (He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe and Rn) occur as single atoms
WHAT IS BONDING?
Very few substances consist of single atoms.
The NOBLE GASES (He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe and Rn) occur as single atoms
All other elements exist as simple molecules (eg O2, N2), giant
molecular structures (diamond and graphite) or giant metallic
structures.

COMPOUNDS are ‘substances in which two or more different
elements are chemically combined’.

COMPOUNDS are ‘substances in which two or more different
elements are chemically combined’.
Elements can be combined using… IONIC
COVALENT
or METALLIC bonds
The type of bonding depends on the outer shell electronic configurations of
the atoms being bonded.

BONDING
COVALENT BONDING
A covalent bond consists of…
a shared pair of electrons with one electron being
supplied by each atom either side of the bond.
The atoms are held together because both their nuclei (which have an
overall positive charge) are attracted to the same shared pair of
negatively charged electrons. COVALENT BONDS ARE STRONG.
