Resource summary
C2.1 Structures and Bonding
Chemical Bonding
Atoms of 2 or more elements react = compound
Noble Gas (group 0) stable and unreactive
Sharing electrons = covalent. Transferring electrons = ionic
Losing Electrons to form positive ions
In ionic bonding atoms lose or gain electrons forming charged particles (ions)
Ions have structure of a noble gas (2,8/2,8,8)
Ions have one more proton than electron making a positively charged ion.
Gaining Electrons to form negative ions
Non metals with metals: non metal gains electrons to obtain noble gas structure
More electrons than protons, negative charged ion
Both atoms aim for a stable structure
Ionic Bonding
Ions are held together by strong attracting forces between oppositely charged ions. This electrostatic force of attraction is called ionic bonding
Giant structure or lattice has forces from all directions holding it in place.
When bonding you must reach no charge
Formulae of ionic compounds
Group 1 metals = charge 1+. Group 2 metals = charge 2+. Group 7 non metals = charge 1-. Group 6 non metals = charge 2-
Names of transition metals compounds contain charge of ions in roman numerals in brackets. Eg. iron(lll) oxide = Fe3+ ions
Some ions are made of more than 1 element (CO3)
When things are in brackets you must multiply them out as they change the ratio
Covalent Bonding
When non metals react they share electrons forming molecules
Simple Molecules
They both need to gain electrons, so they share
Giant Covalent Structures
Macromolecules
Diamond
each carbon forms 4 covalent bonds
Metals
Metal Crystals
built up in layers like a regular pattern
Eg. Zinc crystals on the surface of steel
Steel can be dipped into molten zinc to prevent rust
Metallic Bonding
lattice of positively charged ions
Regular layers
Outer electrons can move through the structure - delocalised electrons
No longer linked with an ion
Strong electrostatic attraction between positive ions and negative electrons bind it
