protons in the nucleus
and neutrons outside.

The electrons are the
heaviest part, which is
why they’re outside.

The nucleus is overall
positive and the electrons
are negatively charged.

Valence Electrons & Configurations
In the first period (H and He), there is one
small electron shell. It can hold up to two
electrons – a duet.

As we move down each period, we
add an electron shell.
The outer shell can hold
up to 8 electrons.

4 shells, 1 valence
electron

Valence electrons are the electrons in
the outer shell only. They are used in
bonding.

Once the outer shell is full, the atom is
stable. This is the octet rule.

Bonding is the attraction between atoms.
Atoms are stable when they have a full valence shell.
In ionic bonds, electrons are transferred to achieve this.
In covalent, electrons are shared.
The result are forces of attraction.

Bonds:
• Ionic
• Covalent
• Metallic

Inter-molecular forces:
• Dipole-dipole bonds
• Hydrogen bonds
• Van der Waal’s forces

two atoms which are sharing two electrons, e.g. H-H.
Double bonds are formed when
two atoms share four electrons, such as O=O.

electrons more strongly.

Polar Bonds Larger atoms exert a greater pull on shared electrons.

Oxygen has more protons than hydrogen.
This means there is a stronger attraction between
the shared electrons and oxygen than there is
with the nucleus of hydrogen.

The result is a polar bond. Electrons are pulled
slightly closer to the oxygen, making it slightly
negatively charged overall. The hydrogen ends up

Van der Waal’s Forces
When non-polar molecules come in very close contact with
each other, an attractive force called Van der Waal’s force can
be created. This is because an induced dipole is created.

It is is a very weak inter-molecular force,
but the cumulative total of Van der Waal’s
forces can be quite strong.

Gecko feet are thought to use VdW’s forces.
They have thousands of tiny hairs called spatulae,
which maximise the surface area for forces to act.

Assessment: Knowledge and Understanding
MrT will give you two elements and the conclusion of a fictitious student.
Using all of your knowledge from Atoms and Bonding, explain how they will bond.
Analyse and evaluate the student’s conclusion.

Work through these steps:
• Draw atomic structure diagrams of each
• Identify the number of valence electrons
• Draw Lewis dot structures
• State whether they will bond ionically or covalently and why.
• If they bond ionically, explain which will form an anion and which will forma
cation and why.
• Draw diagrams to show how they will bond
• Show the final Lewsis Dot structures and state whether the bonds are single,
double or triple and why.
• If they bond covalently, try to determine if they will form a polar bond and
identify which part will be positive and which negative, and why.

Submit this on a separate piece of paper, along with this worksheet. It will be assessed for
