Bonding: Part Two
Three types of bonds:
•Ionic Bond
transfer valence e-
(NaCl)
•Metallic bond
mobile valence e-
(Fe)
•Covalent bond
shared valence e-
(H2O)
1
Single Covalent Bond
H + H
H-atoms
H H
H2 molecule
Electrons are shared
by the two H atoms
2
Single Covalent Bond
“Structural” Formula
H—H
Single covalent bond (2 shared e-)
3
Ionic vs. Covalent Compounds
Covalent: discrete molecules
H2O, CH4, CO2
Ionic: cations and anions
(occupy crystal lattice points)
”formula unit” NaCl, MgI2
4
Covalent Bond
Covalent bonds usually form
between nonmetal atoms
(Groups 14, 15, 16, and 17).
Each atom tries to attain the econfiguration of a noble gas by
sharing electrons. (“octet rule”)
5
Back to H2
H + H
H-atoms
H H
Each H has econfig. of He
6
Fluorine: F2 or F—F
F + F
F F
Each F has econfig of [Ne]
7
Lone Pairs
Paired valence e- not in the bond
F F
Each F has
an octet
“lone pairs” or
“nonbonding pairs” of e8

Multiple Bonds
Sometimes more than one pair
of bonding electrons are needed
in a bond to attain a noble gas
configuration.
Double bond: two pairs of eTriple bond: three pairs of e

Each is called a
“resonance structure”.
The bonds are equal

28
Exception to the Octet
Rule: Odd # e
Try to write the dot structure of
nitrogen monoxide.
With an odd number of valence
electrons (11), it is impossible to
have octets around both atoms.
NO is “paramagnetic.”

•All valence electron pairs
(bonding & nonbonding pairs)
repel each other.

they were single bonds.

pairs and molecular shape

Is Breaking a Bond
Endo- or Exothermic?
atoms
Endothermic! It takes
energy to break a bond.
Energy is given off when
bonds form (exothermic).
molecule
41
Bond Energy
The energy needed to break a
bond is called “bond dissociation
energy” or “bond energy”.

Multiple bonds are stronger
than single bonds.
Multiple bonds have shorter
bond lengths! Why?

44
Bond Polarity
Covalent bonds involve sharing e-,
however the two bonded atoms
don’t always share equally.
45
Bond Polarity
How do you know which atom
wins the “tug-of war” for the
bonding electrons?
The more electronegative one.
Regents Table ‘S’
46
Bond Polarity
In some cases neither atom wins.
Both atoms have same electronegativity.
Hydrogen
Nitrogen
Oxygen
Chlorine
“Nonpolar”
47
Polar Molecules
EN = 2.2
H F
d+
EN = 4.0
d-
Bonding electrons shift toward F.
Thus HF is polar.
48
EN = 3.4

H
H
EN = 2.2
Water
Each bond in water is
polar, and the overall
molecule is polar
because of its shape
(nonsymmetrical).
Distinguish between bond polarity
and molecular polarity.
49
Nonpolar Molecules
O C O
CO2
Where is the average center of
positive charge, and where is the
center of negative charge?
Even though CO2 has polar bonds,
it is a nonpolar molecule.
50
Summary: Polar Molecules
If only 2 atoms in the molecule:
the molecule is polar if the atoms
have different electronegativities.
H-Cl
polar
Br-Br
nonpolar
51
Summary: Polar Molecules
If more than 2 atoms in molecule:
Draw dot structure
If the central atom has
• a lone pair or
• if the outside atoms are
different, the molecule is polar
(not symmetrical).

is greater than ~2.0, one atom takes
all the bonding e- and the compound
is ionic.
