THE OCTECT RULE
Atoms or ions are held together in molecules or compounds by chemical
bonds. This will help us understand how to:
- Predict the shapes of molecules.
- Predict properties of substances.
- Design and build molecules with particular sets of chemical and physical
properties.
Chemical compounds tend to
form so that each atom, by
gaining, losing, or sharing
electrons, has eight electrons
in its highest occupied energy
level. The same number of
electrons as in the nearest
noble gas.

2.2.1. IONIC
Ionic bonds are formed by the attraction of oppositely
charged ions.
Neutral atoms come near each
other. Electron(s) are transferred
from the metal atom to the non-
metal atom. They stick together
because of electrostatic forces,
like magnets.

17. CHEMICAL BONDING
2.2.1. IONIC
Metal to nonmetal.
Metal loses electrons to form cation.
Nonmetal gains electrons to form anion.
The electronegativity between the metal and the nonmetal must be > than 2.
Ionic bond results from + to − attraction.
Larger charge = stronger attraction.
Smaller ion = stronger attraction.
Lewis theory allows us to predict the correct formulas of ionic compounds.

Properties of ionic compounds
• Crystalline structure. A regular repeating arrangement of ions in the
solid.
• Ions are strongly bonded.
• Ionic compounds are very hard.
• High melting and boiling points.
• Conducting electricity is allowing charges to move.
– In a solid, the ions are locked in place. Ionic solids are insulators.
– When melted, the ions can move around. Melted ionic compounds conduct.
– Dissolved in water they conduct.
• Many soluble in water but not in nonpolar liquid.
• Ionic solids are brittle.

2.2.2. COVALENT
Covalent bonds are formed when an
atom of one non-metal shares one or
more electrons with an atom of another
non metal so both atoms end up with
eight valence electrons.

same, the electrons are shared
equally.

2.2.2. COVALENT
Polar vs Nonpolar
Bonding between unlike atoms results in unequal sharing of the
electrons.
One atom pulls the electrons in the bond closer to its side.
One end of the bond has larger electron density than the other.
The result is bond polarity.
The end with the larger electron density gets a partial negative
charge and the end that is electron deficient gets a partial
positive charge.

Properties of covalent compounds
Some Common Features of Materials with Covalent Bonds:
• Soft-tend to be gases, liquids or soft solids.
• Poor conductors of heat and electricity.
• Molecules. Forces between molecules are weak.
• Brittle or cleave rather than deform.
• Nonelectrolytes-do not conduct electricity in water.
• Low melting and boiling points.
• Many soluble in nonpolar liquid but not in water.
However, the atoms could be bonded covalently
in a continuous network.

35. CHEMICAL BONDING
Network solids
A network solid is a chemical compound where the atoms are
bonded covalently in a continuous network. In a network solid there
are no individual molecules and the entire crystal is the molecule.
Examples of network solids include diamond with a continuous
network of carbon atoms and silicon dioxide or quartz with a
continuous three dimensional network of SiO2 units. Graphite a
consist of continuous two dimensional layers covalently bonded
within the layer with other bond types holding the layers together.

Properties of covalent network solids
• Graphite- A 2-dimensional network
solid is arranged in layers, with
weak attractions between the
layers. This makes them generally
soft and/or slippery. Conductor.
Insoluble.
• Diamond/quartz-A 3-dimensional
network is a giant interlocking
design, giving the substance
exceptional hardness and a high
melting and boiling point. Good

Metallic solids are held
together by metallic bonds.
Metal atoms release some of
their electrons to be shared by
all the other atoms in the
crystal.
The metallic bond is the
attraction of the metal cations
for the mobile electrons.
Often described as islands of cations in a sea of electrons.
