Students, Describe ionic, metallic and covalent bonds. Slide 1 of 31 Slide 2 of 31 8.2 The Nature of Covalent Bonding The colors in this map indicate the concentrations of ozone in various parts of Earth’s atmosphere. Oxygen atoms can join in pairs to form the oxygen you breathe and can also join in groups of three oxygen atoms to form ozone. © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Slide 3 of 31 5. Describe how electrons are shared to form covalent bonds using the octet rule and identify exceptions to the octet rule. 6. Demonstrate how Lewis structures (electron dot structures) represent shared electrons. 7. Draw Lewis structures for molecules and polyatomic ions. 8. Describe how atoms form double or triple covalent bonds. Slide 4 of 31 • Ionic Bonds: – Electron transfer from metal to non‐metal ions – Opposites attract • Metallic Bonds – Closely packed cations in a sea of valence electrons • Covalent Bonds: – The sharing of electrons – The octet rule is the driving force behind how they bond Slide 5 of 31 • Single covalent bonds: – 2 atoms share one pair of e‐’s to achieve a stable electron configuration – Examples: Draw the Lewis structure for H2 Slide 6 of 31 8.2 The Nature of Covalent Bonding > Single Covalent Bonds Two atoms held together by sharing a pair of electrons are joined by a single covalent bond. Slide 7 of 31 © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall 8.2 The Nature of Covalent Bonding > Single Covalent Bonds The halogens form single covalent bonds in their diatomic molecules. Fluorine is one example. Slide 8 of 31 © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall 8.2 The Nature of Covalent Bonding > Single Covalent Bonds A pair of valence electrons that is not shared between atoms is called an unshared pair, also known as a lone pair or a nonbonding pair. Slide 9 of 31 © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall 8.2 The Nature of Covalent Bonding > Single Covalent Bonds The hydrogen and oxygen atoms attain noblegas configurations by sharing electrons. Slide 10 of 31 © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall 8.2 The Nature of Covalent Bonding > Single Covalent Bonds The ammonia molecule has one unshared pair of electrons. Slide 11 of 31 © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall 8.2 The Nature of Covalent Bonding > Single Covalent Bonds Methane has no unshared pairs of electrons. Slide 12 of 31 © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall • Double and triple covalent bonds – atoms share two or three pairs of electrons to attain a noble gas configuration • Example: Sulfur dioxide: SO2 – Follow the steps to draw a Lewis structure, you will need a double covalent bond. 1. How many valence e‐’s? 18 e‐ Slide 13 of 31 2. Place one pair of electrons in each bond 18 e‐ 4 e‐ = 14 e‐ Slide 14 of 31 3. Complete octets of atoms bonded to central atom 14 e‐ 12e‐ = 2 e‐ left Slide 15 of 31 4. Place any addition e‐ on the central atom in pairs 14 e‐ ‐ 12e‐ = 2 e‐ left Slide 16 of 31 5. If the central atom still has less than an octet, form multiple bonds so that each atom has an octet Slide 17 of 31 • Triple covalent bond example N2 1. How many valence e‐? • 10 e‐ 2. Place electron pair in bond • 8 e‐ left Slide 18 of 31 3. Complete octets • 8 e‐ left 5. Form multiple bonds so that each atom has an octet Slide 19 of 31 Slide 20 of 31 8.2 The Nature of Covalent Bonding > Double and Triple Covalent Bonds Carbon dioxide gas is soluble in water and is used to carbonate many beverages. A carbon dioxide molecule has two carbon-oxygen double bonds. Slide 21 of 31 © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall 8.2 The Nature of Covalent Bonding > Double and Triple Covalent Bonds Carbon dioxide is an example of a triatomic molecule. Slide 22 of 31 © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall • Coordinate covalent bonds – one atom contributes both bonding electrons – once formed they act like other covalent bonds – example: CO Slide 23 of 31 • Polyatomic ions – A group of two or more covalently bonded atoms (polyatomic) that behave as a unit and carry a charge (ion) – Most have a negative charge – One polyatomic ion with a positive charge = ammonium ion: NH4+ Slide 24 of 31 • Drawing Lewis structures for polyatomic ions – Remember to add or subtract e‐’s in the first step to represent the gain or loss of electrons • for negative ions: add e‐ • for positive ions: subtract e‐ – Write the final structure in brackets with the charge outside the bracket Slide 25 of 31 • Draw a Lewis structure for the polyatomic ion sulfate (SO42‐) 1. Count all valence electrons • 30e‐ + 2e‐ = 32 e‐ 2. Place a pair of electrons in each bond 3. Complete octets of atoms bonded to the central atom 4. Write the structure in brackets with the charge outside Slide 26 of 31 Slide 27 of 31 8.2 Section Quiz. In covalent bonding, atoms attain the configuration of noble gases by A. losing electrons. B. gaining electrons. C. transferring electrons. D. sharing electrons. © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Slide 28 of 31 8.2 Section Quiz Electron dot diagrams are superior to molecular formulas in that they A. show which electrons are shared. B. indicate the number of each kind of atom in the molecule. C. show the arrangement of atoms in the molecule. D. are easier to write or draw. © Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Slide 29 of 31 8.2 Section Quiz Which of the following molecules would contain a bond formed when atoms share three pairs of electrons?
