1

Valence electrons occupying the

Highest energy level

New cards
2

energy-level theory says the the electrons in lower energy levels are held so ___ by their___- that, during chemical recation, they remain__

Strongly , Nucleus, Unchanged

New cards
3

( )

( ) o ( ) <----Orbital

( )

A region of space around an atoms nucleus where an electron my exist

New cards
4

Valence orbitals

The volumes of space that can be occupied by electrons in a atoms highest energy level

New cards
5

Bonding electrons

An atom with a valence orbital that is occupied by a single electron and therefore share that electron with another atom.

New cards
6

Lone pair

A full valence orbital with two electrons which has a repeling affect on any nearby orbitals

New cards
7

Quantum mechanics rules

  1. The FIRST energy level has room for only one orbital with a maximum of 2 electrons

  2. Energy levels above the first have room for FOUR orbitals which is 8 electrons max.

New cards
8

Octet rule

The octet rule is a chemical rule of thumb that reflects the theory that main-group elements tend to bond in such a way that each atom has eight electrons in its valence shell, giving it the same electronic configuration as a noble gas

9

Atoms that always obey the octet rule when bonding.

10

Atoms that are exceptions to the octet rule.

relative ability of an atom to attract a pair of bonding electrons in its valence level

New cards
19

Types of bonding

Covalent, Ionic, Metallic

New cards
20
  • If the electronegativities of each atom are relatively high, then neither atom “wins” the competition

  • Instead the pair of bonding electrons s shared between two atoms and a COVALENT bond forms

  • Usually occurs between two non-metal atoms (2C)

  • The electron sharing may be unequal (CO)

Covalent bonding

New cards
21
  • If the electronegativities of the two atoms are very diffrent, the atom with the higher electronegativitie will “win” and take the bonding electron from the lower electronegativities

  • an ___ forms when an electron tansfer occurs

  • Occurs between metals and non-metals

  • ions arrange themselves in position where the maximum total attraction between positive and ions occur

Ionic bonding

New cards
22
  • If the electronegativities of the colliding atoms are both low, then the atoms share valence electrons in a __ bond.

  • The valence electrons are not held strongly by their atoms; so they can move arround

  • there will be a large number of positive electrons surrounded by a sea of moving electrons

  • this is weak attraction in which the metal atoms are not arranged in any particular arranements, which create that is flexable, malleable, and ductile

Metallic bonding

New cards
23

Scientis figured out that two non-metal atoms must ___ a pair of elctrons in a ______ bond

share, covalent bond

New cards
24

Covalent bonds shares one pair of elctrons

single

28

polyatomic molecules

New cards
29
  • Molecular compunds do not have simplest ratio formulas like ionic compounds

  • Instead, molecular formulas show the actual number and arrangment of the atoms

  • all atomsb strive to fill their valence orbitals with a full octet

  • Bonding capacity = max # of single covalent bonds

  • in turn, the # of ___ determine an atoms bonding capacity
