Slide 1 : Covalent Bonds

Slide 2 : LET’S FIRST REVIEW IONIC BONDING

Slide 3 : In an IONIC bond, electrons are lost or gained, resulting in the formation of IONS in ionic compounds.

Slide 4 : F K

Slide 5 : F K

Slide 6 : F K

Slide 7 : F K

Slide 8 : F K

Slide 9 : F K

Slide 10 : F K

Slide 11 : F K The compound potassium fluoride consists of potassium (K+) ions and fluoride (F-) ions

Slide 12 : F K + _ The ionic bond is the attraction between the positive K+ ion and the negative F- ion

Slide 13 : So what are covalent bonds?

Slide 14 : In covalent bonding, atoms still want to achieve a noble gas configuration (the octet rule).

Slide 15 : In covalent bonding, atoms still want to achieve a noble gas configuration (the octet rule). But rather than losing or gaining electrons, atoms now share an electron pair.

Slide 16 : In covalent bonding, atoms still want to achieve a noble gas configuration (the octet rule). But rather than losing or gaining electrons, atoms now share an electron pair. The shared electron pair is called a bonding pair

Slide 17 : Cl2 Chlorine forms a covalent bond with itself

Slide 18 : Cl Cl How will two chlorine atoms react?

Slide 19 : Cl Cl Each chlorine atom wants to gain one electron to achieve an octet

Slide 20 : Cl Cl Neither atom will give up an electron – chlorine is highly electronegative. What’s the solution – what can they do to achieve an octet?

Slide 21 : Cl Cl

Slide 22 :

Slide 23 : Cl Cl

Slide 24 : Cl Cl

Slide 25 : Cl Cl octet

Slide 26 : Cl Cl circle the electrons for each atom that completes their octets octet

Slide 27 : Cl Cl circle the electrons for each atom that completes their octets The octet is achieved by each atom sharing the electron pair in the middle

Slide 28 : Cl Cl circle the electrons for each atom that completes their octets The octet is achieved by each atom sharing the electron pair in the middle

Slide 29 : Cl Cl circle the electrons for each atom that completes their octets This is the bonding pair

Slide 30 : Cl Cl circle the electrons for each atom that completes their octets It is a single bonding pair

Slide 31 : Cl Cl circle the electrons for each atom that completes their octets It is called a SINGLE BOND

Slide 32 : Cl Cl circle the electrons for each atom that completes their octets Single bonds are abbreviated with a dash

Slide 33 : Cl Cl circle the electrons for each atom that completes their octets This is the chlorine molecule, Cl2

Slide 34 : O2 Oxygen is also one of the diatomic molecules

Slide 35 : How will two oxygen atoms bond?

Slide 36 : Each atom has two unpaired electrons

Slide 37 :

Slide 38 :

Slide 39 :

Slide 40 :

Slide 41 :

Slide 42 :

Slide 43 : Oxygen atoms are highly electronegative. So both atoms want to gain two electrons.

Slide 44 : Oxygen atoms are highly electronegative. So both atoms want to gain two electrons.

Slide 45 :

Slide 46 :

Slide 47 :

Slide 48 :

Slide 49 : O O Both electron pairs are shared.

Slide 50 : 6 valence electrons plus 2 shared electrons = full octet O O

Slide 51 : 6 valence electrons plus 2 shared electrons = full octet O O

Slide 52 : two bonding pairs, O O making a double bond

Slide 53 : For convenience, the double bond can be shown as two dashes.

Slide 54 : This is the oxygen molecule, O2

Slide 55 : Covalent bonding allows for an amazingly large variety of compounds such as

Slide 56 : small compounds like water and carbon dioxide,

Slide 57 : and ethanol (alcohol),

Slide 58 : to larger compounds such as aspirin, (21 atoms)

Slide 59 : and the sex hormones estradiol (estrogen) and testosterone, (49 atoms) (44 atoms)

Slide 60 : to all of the 40,000 proteins you have in your body, including

Slide 61 : insulin, with 779 atoms,

Slide 62 : and hemoglobin, with about 11,000 atoms!

Slide 63 : There are an estimated 1040 possible compounds containing up to 50 atoms The known chemical world, including natural and synthetic compounds, is far far far below 1% of that. NATURE volume 442 p. 502 3 August 2006

Slide 64 : As of 2007, there are about 31,000,000 known compounds; CAS registry: http://www.cas.org/cgi-bin/regreport.pl About 12.5 million of those are commercially available. Thousands of new compounds are discovered or synthesized every week!
