What Kind Of Bond Am I? Unlike Thomas Jefferson’s view of people, all atoms are not created equal. We have already
seen that there are complex patterns to the trends in ionization energy, electron affinity
and electronegativity that describe an atom’s ability to gain, lose or attract electrons. We
know that it is easier to remove an electron from K than it is from Li, but we’ve not
considered how these various atomic effects might affect bonding between atoms.
A chemical bond is a linkage of atoms by transferring or sharing valence electrons, those outermost _______ and _______ electrons. But why do atoms bond together? We can answer that by looking at the group of atoms that do not bond — ________________________. The reason they are so stable is their outer s and p orbitals are filled, the same electron configurations that other atoms strive to achieve. This can occur by rearranging the outer electrons between two atoms. From the definition, we can see that there are two general types of bonds in compounds, those that result from electron _________________ and the second class that results from electron _______________. When electrons transfer from one atom to another, positive and negative ions are formed that are held together by an electrostatic attraction. This is called an ionic bond and is usually formed between a _________________________ and a
_________________________. EXAMPLE: NaCl ----> the Na atom has _____ valence electron; Cl atom has _____ valence electrons. In order to achieve a noble gas electron configuration, the Na atom will give up its electron to the Cl atom, creating ___________ and __________ ions. The two ions of opposite charge are attracted to one another and held together by an _____________________ ____________________.
In the second type, usually formed between _______ ________________, the electrons in the bond are shared between the two atoms, giving each atom _______ electrons. This is called a covalent bond. EXAMPLE: Cl2 ----> Each Cl atom has _______ valence electrons.
In order to achieve a noble gas electron configuration, each Cl atom will share its unpaired electron with the other Cl atom, creating a single covalent bond between the two atoms. Now each chlorine has _____ pairs of unshared electrons and _____ shared pair, for a total of _______ valence electrons. In covalent bonds, the electrons in the bond are shared by two atoms. In the example above, both chlorine atoms
have identical attractions for these shared electrons, creating a pure covalent bond ------> ________________ sharing.

This is not always the case. If we examine the water molecule, we will see why. EXAMPLE: H2O ----> Each H atom has _____ valence electron, and the oxygen has _____ valence electrons. In order to achieve a noble gas electron configuration, each H atom will share its single valence electron with the oxygen’s 2 single valence electrons, creating two single covalent bonds. Now each hydrogen atom has _____ electrons, and the oxygen has _____.
In water’s two covalent H—O bonds, the electrons in the bond are not shared equally by the two atoms. Oxygen, which has a stronger attraction for electrons than hydrogen, pulls the electrons towards itself. This creates a polar covalent bond ------> _______________ sharing. In a polar covalent bond, the more electronegative element
assumes a partial negative charge (δ-), while the other atom in the bond takes on a slightly positive charge (δ
+).
In this introductory course, we can predict bond types by using the following rule: * Ionic bond --> metal + __________________
* Covalent bond --> nonmetal + ____________________
If the two nonmetals are identical --> ______________ covalent.
If the two nonmetals are different --> ______________ covalent.
This rule is only a rough approximation and works well for compounds of the Group 1 or 2 metals with the halides but doesn’t reflect reality when we consider bonds between carbon and most metals. Carbon is certainly a nonmetal, but it forms covalent bonds (sometimes highly polar, but covalent none the less) with almost all of the elements on the periodic table. There needs to be a more accurate way to determine bond types. In the 1930’s, Linus Pauling (1901 - 1994), an American chemist who won the 1954 Nobel Prize, recognized that
bond polarity resulted from the relative ability of atoms to attract electrons. Pauling devised a measure of this electron attracting power. He called it “electronegativity,” which he defined as the “power of an atom in a molecule to attract electrons to itself.” Electronegativity only has meaning in a _______________. When we are looking at a chemical bond to determine whether its actual bond type is pure covalent, polar covalent, or ionic, we must compare the electronegativities of the atoms in the bond. Simply subtract the EN values of the two elements in the bond and compare to the chart below:
0 - 0.3 ----> pure covalent
0.4 - 1.7 ----> polar covalent
1.8 - 4.0 ----> ionic
EXAMPLE: NaCl ----> ENNa - ENCl = _______ - _______ = _______, a(n) ____________________ bond. Cl2 ----> ENCl - ENCl = _______ - _______ = _______, a(n) _________________________ bond. H2O ----> ENO - ENH = _______ - _______ = _______, a(n) _________________________ bond.

Chemical Bonding
How can the physical properties of substances be explained?
Physical properties of substances can be explained in terms of intermolecular forces that exist ________________ molecules and chemical bonds found between ________________ in a molecule. These properties include conductivity, malleability, ductility, solubility, hardness, melting point, and boiling point.
Conductivity is the ability to carry an electrical current when electrons or ions are ____________________. Malleability is the ability of solids to be ________________________ into thin sheets. Ductility is the ability of solids to be _____________________ into wires. Solubility is the ability to ____________________ in a solvent. Hardness is the ability to resist ____________________ changes. Melting point is the temperature at which a substance melts. Boiling point is the temperature at which a substance boils.
Ionic solids Example: NaCl(s) Note: The crystal shape is cubic.
Ionic solids have relatively strong attractions between the _____________.
Their physical properties are as follows: 1) Because there are no free moving electrons or ions, ionic solids do/do not (circle one) conduct heat
and electricity, unless the ionic solid is dissolved ( _______________________), or melted
(_______________________).
2) Because particles cannot slide over one another they are/are not malleable. This causes ionic solids to
be __________________________.
3) Because the ions are attracted to the δ+ and δ- ends of water, they have low/high solubility in water.
4) Since ionic bonds are strong, their crystals are soft/hard.
5) Because ionic solids have strong attractions between the ions, the compounds have low/high
melting and boiling points.
Molecular (covalent) Compounds Example: SiO2 (s)
Molecular compounds have relatively _____________ intermolecular forces between the molecules. As a result, they exist as solids, liquids, and gases at room temperature. In general, their physical properties are as follows:
1) Because there are no free moving electrons or ions, they do/do not conduct heat and electricity, ever.
2) In the solid state, the particles are “glued” in position and cannot slide over one another, so they
are/are not malleable. This causes molecular solids to be ____________________.
3) In general, covalent compounds have low/high solubility in water.
4) The intermolecular forces between covalent compounds are relatively weak and easy/hard to break.
Therefore, solid covalent compounds are soft/hard, and the compounds have low/high melting and
boiling points.
5) The intermolecular forces of pure covalent compounds are weaker/stronger than polar covalent
bonds.
14
Metallic Solids Example: Al (s)
Metallic bonds are formed because valence _____________ are mobile. Metals have ionic/covalent/metallic bonds between the particles. ______________ electrons in the metals are not confined to each atom but are shared by all. Therefore, the _______________ ions (cations) are said to be immersed in a “moving sea” of _______________. The physical properties of metals are as follows: 1) Because there are free moving __________________________ present, they are good/bad conductors.
2) Because the positive ions can slide over one another, metals are/are not malleable and ductile.
3) They have low/high solubility in water.
4) Since metallic bonds are also strong, they are soft/hard and the atoms have low/high melting and
boiling points.
5) Examine the picture above. Metallic bonds are/are not found in compounds.
Place the 4 types of bonds (ionic, polar covalent, pure covalent, metallic) in order of increasing strength.
___________________________________________________________________________________
Place the four types of bond in order of increasing melting/boiling points. Explain your reasoning. ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Refer to the two diagrams below and explain why metals are malleable and ionic solids are not.
Metals are malleable because the free flowing __________________ act as a lubricant and allow the
__________________ to __________________ over each other.
However, in ionic solids, the __________________ and __________________ are held in
__________________ positions. When a force is applied to the crystal (examine the bottom right diagram),
__________________ charges line up. When similar ions are close to each other, they attract/repel (circle
one) one another, causing the crystal to_____________________.

In this experiment, you will test eight compounds to determine the above properties. Your compiled data will enable to
you classify the substances as either ionic or covalent compounds. But before you begin predict the type of bond that
exists in each of the following substances.
Name Bond Type (ionic or covalent)
table salt
chalk
sucrose
Advil (C13H18O2)
paraffin wax (approx. C25H52)
milk of magnesia ( Mg(OH)2)
isopropyl alcohol (C3H8O)
ethanol (C2H6O)
23
PART A
1. Label five pieces of paper with the following names: table salt, sucrose, Advil, chalk, and wax. Obtain a FEW
CRYSTALS of each chemical and place them on the correctly labeled paper. Take the samples back to your lab
desk.
2. Notice that there is a hot plate for every 3 lab stations. You will have to share! Determine which one your lab
group will use. Do not turn it on yet! Create a “flat-bottom” boat made of aluminum foil that will fit
comfortably on the hot plate. Using the samples that you collected in step 1, place each of the five different
compounds in separate spots on the foil boat--do not allow the samples to touch each other! Label the diagram
below that shows the position of each chemical on the aluminum foil. Keep the labeled pieces of paper to use in
step 7.
3. Place the aluminum boat on the hot plate that has NOT been turned on yet. Make sure the bottom is flat so that
all the substances are exposed to the heat. Recruit two other lab groups to share the hot plate. All three “boats”
will fit!
4. Turn on the hotplate and set the temperature to 1000C. Increase the temperature to the following every five
minutes: 1500C, 2000C, and maximum. Record the order of melting in the data table below. It is not necessary
to have the exact values for the melting points of the solids. The foil will get hotter as it is heated so the order of
melting will give relative melting points. After completing all of the temperature increases, record an “n” in the
date table for each substance that did not melt. Turn off the hot plate and place your foil in the trash can after
it has cooled.
Compound Melting order
table Salt
chalk
sucrose
Advil
paraffin wax
24
PART B
5. Repeat step one. In addition to the five solid substances, obtain a small scoop of milk of magnesia.
6. Write a brief description of each of the five substances in the data table. Make special note of the color and
texture of each substance. To assess its texture, obtain a small amount between two fingers. Rinse and dry your
hands between each chemical.
7. Place one of the solid substances into a plastic cup filled with about 25 mL of distilled water. Stir with a glass
rod and test for odor by carefully wafting—do not sniff directly. Observe and record your results in the date
table. In the solubility column, use “s” (soluble) if the substance dissolves and “i” (insoluble) if it does not
dissolve.
8. Use the conductivity tester to determine whether or not the solution conducts electricity. Place only the tip of
the electrodes into the solution. If a bright light is observed then the solution conducts electricity. If a dim light

TYPES OF ELECTRON PAIRS In the Lewis structure of a molecule or polyatomic ion, valence electrons occur in pairs. There are two kinds of pairs.
1. A shared pair, or bonding pair, exists ___________________________of the compound. It can be represented by a ______________________________ between the bonded atoms.
2. An unshared pair, or lone pair, belongs_____________________________________________. It is represented by a __________________________________________ on that atom.
Count the lone pairs and shared pairs in the hydroxide ion: [ O — H ] — lone pairs ________ shared pairs ________
Rules for Drawing Lewis Structures It is important to learn to draw Lewis structures. They can help predict the molecular structure and geometry of the molecule.
1. Draw a skeleton structure for the molecule or ion by joining the atoms with single bonds.
a. Hydrogen is always an end or terminal atom. It is connected to only one other atom.
b. The least electronegative atom in the molecule or ion is usually the central atom.
c. Oxygen is NEVER the central atom unless bonded with fluorine or hydrogen.
2. Count the number of valence electrons.
a. For molecules, simply add up the group numbers of the elements.
b. For ions, add to the sum the charge on a negative ion and subtract the charge on a
positive ion.
3. Determine the number of electron pairs that are available to satisfy the octet rule of each
element by dividing the total number of valence electrons in half.
4. Determine the number of electron pairs still available for distribution by subtracting the number
of single bonds (drawn in step 1) from the total number of pairs available (calculated in step 3).
5. Place lone pairs around each terminal atom (except H) to satisfy the octet rule. If pairs are left at
this point, assign them to the central atom. (If the central atom is from the third or higher
period, it can have more than 8 electrons surrounding it. This is called an expanded octet and
will be discussed in greater detail later.)
6. If the central atom is not yet surrounded by 8 electrons, multiple bonds must be formed by
moving one or more terminal lone pairs to a bonding location.
a. If the central atom is two electrons short, move one lone pair to convert a single bond to
double bond.
b. If the central atom is four electrons short, move two lone pairs to convert a single bond
to a triple bond (or two single bonds to two double bonds).
c. Halogens NEVER multiple bond, and if another structure is possible, oxygen will not triple
bond.

Draw the Lewis Structure for sulfur dioxide.
There are two valid structures that can be written for sulfur dioxide. Both indicate that the molecule has one single bond and one double bond. Yet experiments show that there is only one kind of bond in the molecule. An explanation for this phenomenon is that the actual bond is a resonance hybrid, or an average of the valid structures. In this case, the true bond is an intermediate between a single and double bond. The concept of
Resonance
refers to bonding in molecules that cannot be correctly represented by a single Lewis structure. For the electron-dot drawing to comply with experimental observations, equivalent structures called resonance structures are drawn. 1. When drawing resonance structures, there are several things to notice. 2. Resonance structures differ only in location of the bonding and lone electron pairs, not in the location of
the atoms. 3. The resonating bonds in a given molecule or ion are a hybrid of the predicted bonds. These bonds do
not oscillate back and forth. They are a weighted average of the valid resonance structures. If the resonating structures are symmetrical, as in the sulfur dioxide molecule, then the bonds are identical.
4. When halogens occur as terminal atoms, they never multiple bond. 5. If another structure is possible, oxygen will avoid forming a triple bond. Draw all possible Lewis structures for the carbonate ion.
36
1. Since the 3 resonance structures for the ion are symmetrical, then all 3 bonds are _________________.
2. Since the 3 bonds are identical, they are a _____________________ average of the ______ single bonds

VSEPR Theory Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion theory
There are three types of repulsion between the electron pairs:
Bonding Pair – Bonding Pair: least repulsion Lone Pair – Bonding Pair: more repulsion Lone Pair – Lone Pair: greatest repulsion
This strength of the repulsion helps to determine how a molecule will adjust its shape to minimize the electron repulsion.
In order to determine the shape of the molecule, spread the bonds as far apart as possible. Since the central atom determines the shape of the molecule, count the number of electron locations around the central atom to determine the maximum degree of separation.
Example: CO2: a molecule with two bonding locations around the central atom. 1. Draw the Lewis structure: 2. If you follow the rule and spread the bonds as far apart as possible, which one is the correct shape? Example BH3: a molecule that has three bonding locations around the central atom. 1. Draw the Lewis structure. 2. Once again, follow the rule and spread the bonds as far apart as possible. Which one is the correct shape? Example CH4: a molecule with four bonding locations around the central atom. 1. Draw the Lewis structure. 2. This is the first example where the structure is not planar but three-dimensional, so the bond angle is not 900, as I am sure you drew. What should the correct shape be?
Because electrons naturally repel one another, molecules will adjust their shape so
that the valence electron pairs around the central atom are as far apart as possible.

Determining the Polarity of Molecules
For a molecule to be POLAR:
1. It must have at least one polar bond. For our purposes, assume any bond between two different nonmetals to be polar.
2. It must be nonsymmetrical so the polar bonds do not cancel each other out.
The following are guidelines to follow when determining if a molecule is a polar compound:
These apply ONLY to substances where the central atom
is bonded to identical terminal atoms. 1. If there are NO LONE PAIRS on the central atom, it is NONPOLAR.
- These shapes are all symmetrical and the polar bonds would cancel each other out. 2. If there are LONE PAIRS on the central atom, it is POLAR.
- EXCEPTIONS: square planar and linear with lone pairs; since their shapes are symmetrical, they are nonpolar.
**When the molecule has different terminal atoms, it loses its symmetry, making the molecule polar.**
