Chemical Bonding

Question	Answer
the number of electrons found in the outermost energy level of an atom---in the s and p orbitals	valence electrons
electrons within an atom responsible for chemical bonding	valence electrons
when sodium combines chemically with chlorine, how does sodium become more stable	by losing an electron to chlorine the atom becomes a positive ion and has a total of 8 valence electrons
when chlorine combines chemically with sodium, how does chlorine become more stable	by gaining an electron the atom becomes a negative ion with a total of 8 valence electrons
when a neutral atom loses an electron the atom is transformed into __________	a positive ion
a positive ion is called a ________	cation
when a neutral atom gains an electron the atom is transformed into _________	a negative ion
a negative ion is called an	anion
the Lewis structure for sodium chloride is	[Na]^+[Cl]^-
an ion is formed when an atom either __________ or ____________ an electron	loses, gains
in the formation of sodium chloride, what keeps the ions together	the attraction the positively charged ion has for the negatively charged ion and vice versa
an _______________ is formed when an electron is transferred from one atom to another atom	ionic bond
atoms held together by ionic bonds form a ________ __________	crystal structure
explain how magnesium and fluorine combine chemically	the metallic atom will transfer a total of two electron. one electron will be transferred to two separate fluorine atoms. the nonmetal atoms become negatively charged and the other atom becomes a positive ion
Why do atoms transfer and accept ions from each other	to fulfill the octet rule meaning that the atom or ion has at least 8 valence electrons
what is the octet rule	atoms combine chemically in order to have a full outside energy level or have at least 8 electrons in the outside energy level
by what process is a fluorine molecule formed	the two f atoms have 7 valence electrons, six electrons are paired and one unpaired. by the sharing the tow unpaired electrons both atoms in effect have 8 electrons in the outside energy level
the ___________ _________ represent a pair of electrons being shared between two atoms	bond line
the electrons within an atom that are not involved in the bonding process are called the _________ ______	none bonding pair
the sharing of valence electrons between two atoms is called ________ ________	covalent bonding
a covalent compound is sometimes called a _______ ________	molecular compound
ionic compounds are not made of ___________	molecules
what must happen in order for two oxygen atoms and one carbon atom to form a molecule	the carbon atom has two pairs of shared electrons with each oxygen atom
draw the Lewis structure for carbon dioxide molecule	O=C=O
when two atoms share a total of 4 electrons (two pairs of shared electrons) the bond is called a ________	double bond
when two atoms share a total of 6 electrons (three pairs of shared electrons) the bond is called a ______	triple bond
list the steps involved in writing a Lewis structure	1. count the number of valence electrons involved for each atom in the compound. 2. determine the number of needed electrons for full octets 3. needed electrons - valence electrons then divide by 2-----gives you the total number of bonds needed in t

compounds that generally don't dissolve in water	covalent compounds
compounds that are often flammable	covalent compounds
metals have __________ electrons	free mobile valence
metals form a weak ________ ________ similar to ionic compounds	crystalline structure

mixtures composed of two or more elements (usually metals) are known as ____________	alloys
alloys have properties that are often ___________ to those of their component elements	superior
compounds that are flammable are usually __________ compounds	covalent
atoms that share electrons equally form a _________ bond	nonpolar covalent
atoms that share electrons unequally, form a ________ bond	polar covalent
the bond formed by the sharing of a single pair of electrons is called a __________ bond	single covalent
the bond formed by the sharing of 2 pairs of electrons is called a ____________ bond	double covalent
the atoms held together by sharing electrons are joined by ___________________ .	covalent bond
a neutral group of atoms joined together by covalent bond is a _______________	molecule
a compound composed of molecules is called a ______	molecular compound

a large bond dissociation energy corresponds to a stong __________________	covalent bond
a _____________________- is a structure that occurs when it is possible to draw two or more valid electron dot structures that have the same number of electron pairs for a molecule or ion.	resonance structure
the octet rule cannot be satisfied in molecules whose total number of valence electrons is and _____________________	odd number
when two atoms combine, it is assumed that their atomic orbitals overlap to produce a _______________, or orbitals that apply to the entire molecule	molecular orbitals
a molecular orbital that can be occupied by two electrons of a covalent bond is called a __________________	bonding orbitals
when two atomic orbitals combine to form a molecular orbital that is symmetrical around the axis connecting the tow atomic nuclei, a ________________is formed	sigma
___________________ bond can be formed when 2 s or 2 orbitals overlap	sigma
