PPT-Covalent Compounds

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. Ch. . 16. Covalent Compounds. Covalent bonds. form when atoms share . their valence electrons. .. Covalent compounds. are formed from 2 or more nonmetals.. Rules for Naming Covalent Compounds. 1. Prefixes are used to show how many atoms of each element are present in the compound . 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.. 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. Chemistry. What are Halogens?. Halogens are a series of non-metal elements located in group 7 of the periodic table. The term “halogen” means. “salt. -former”.. . All halogens . have seven electrons in their outermost. COVALENT BOND. bond. formed by the . sharing . of . electrons . Covalent . Bonds. Between nonmetallic elements of similar electronegativity. .. Electronegativity = how badly an atom wants to add an electron (non metals have higher electronegativity). Ball-and-stick model. Molecular . Compounds. OBJECTIVES:. Distinguish. between the melting points and boiling points of . molecular. compounds and . ionic. compounds.. Molecular . Compounds. OBJECTIVES:.  . 1) . SeF. 6. . . ________________________________________.  . 2) . TeO. 3 . . ________________________________________.  . 3) . H. 2. O. . . ________________________________________.  . Covalent bonding. Ionic bonding. Ionic Bonding. Bonding as you’ve never imagined it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BCYrNU-7SfA. Objectives. To consider the features of ionic and covalent bonds, and the compounds they make. Bonding Discussion. Bonding. . Ionic. . Covalent. . Metallic. Determined by difference in Electronegativity between atoms.. Ionic . Compounds. Crystalline . solids (made of ions) . High melting and boiling points . Types of bonds. Ionic bonding. results from electrostatic attractions among ions, which are formed by the . transfer. of one or more electrons from one atom to another.. Covalent bonding. results from . What do these images have in common?. How are they different?. What do you know about the uses of graphite and carbon?. Learning questions. What are giant covalent molecules?. How are they similar/ different from each other?. Covalent Compounds. Formed between two non-metals. Valence electrons are shared between atoms. Binary Covalent Compounds. Contain just two different types of non-metal elements. Some Different Rules. Covalent bonds . result from the . sharing . of electrons. between two atoms.. A covalent bond is a . two-electron bond . in which the bonding atoms share valence electrons.. A . molecule . is a discrete group of atoms held together by covalent bonds.. I. onic compounds form between a metal and a nonmetal.. The metal forms a . cation. (+ ion) and the nonmetal forms an anion (-ion).. The . cation. is always named first and is the element name.. The anion is always named second – the root of the element name with an –ide ending..
