PPT-Unit 5B: Covalent

Unit 5B Covalent Bonding Covalent Bonds 2 nonmetals atoms share e to get a full valence shell C 1s 2 2s 2 2p 2 F 1s 2 2s 2 2p 5 Both need 8 ve for a full outer shell . Why do atoms bond?. Atoms gain stability when they share electrons and form covalent bonds.. Lower energy states make an atom more stable.. Gaining or losing electrons makes atoms more stable by forming ions with noble-gas electron configurations.. Co = Together. The Octet Rule. The octet rule says that all atoms want to have eight valence electrons, like the noble gases.. One way that atoms can follow the octet rule is by giving and taking electrons… ionic bonding. What is the arrangement of the electrons around each chlorine atom in Cl. 2. ?. 2, 8, 8. This is the same as the electron configuration of an atom of which noble gas?. Argon. When atoms bond . covalently. Chapter 9 ~ most compounds, including those in living organisms, are covalently bonded. What You’ll Learn. I will analyze the nature of a covalent bond. I will name covalently bonded groups of atoms. Including Naming. Note: We likely won’t make it to covalent nomenclature, this is the one students find FAR easier than ionic. Please refer to the videos and naming hand out for help with this, and as always office hours, discussions, and .  . 1) . SeF. 6. . . ________________________________________.  . 2) .

Each has its own strengths and limitations.. Ga . Standards. Students know . atoms combine to form molecules by sharing electrons to form covalent or metallic bonds or by exchanging electrons to form ionic bonds.. Electron Pairs. Recall that in the Lewis/electron dot diagram, only valence electrons are shown. We consider the shell that they are in to be the valence shell. . These valence electrons give the element its chemical properties, and therefore determine its ability to form chemical bonds. . By: Andres F Sanchez. Molecular Orbital!. Molecular Orbital- . The space that shared electrons move in. Covalent Bond- . when two atoms share electrons. Energy and Stability. Most atoms have low stability except noble gases. Mrs. Page. Essential Idea. Lewis (electron dot) structures show the electron domains in the valence shell and are used to predict molecular shape. .. Nature of Science. Scientists . use models as representatives of the real world – the development of the model of molecular shapes (VSEPR) to explain observable properties.. Covalent Bonding. A . chemical bond . is the force that holds two atoms together and makes them function as a unit. Atoms form bonds to become most stable and obtain an octet. Covalent Bonding: Electrons are shared between two or more elements. Always between 2 non-metals. Text:. Ch 8 (all except sections 4,5 & 8). Ch 9.1 & 9.5. Ch 10.1-10.7. My Name is Bond. Chemical Bond. PART 1: . Ionic & Covalent Bonding. Chemical Bonds. A chemical bond is an attraction between 2 atoms or ions.. Covalent Bonds. Covalent bonds:. occur between two or more . nonmetals. ; electrons are . shared. not transferred (as in ionic bonds). The result of sharing electrons is that atoms attain a more stable electron configuration.. 6.2. Molecules. Molecules – a neutral group of atoms held together by . covalent. bonds. Molecular compound – a . cmpd. whose simplest units are molecules. Chemical formula – indicates relative # of atoms of each kind in a chemical compound by using atomic symbols & subscripts.
