Chapter 9Chemical Bonding I: Basic
Concepts
Chemical Bonds• Three basic types of
bonds:– Ionic
• Electrostatic attraction between ions
– Covalent• Sharing of electrons
– Metallic• Metal atoms bonded to
several other atoms
Ionic Bonding
Energetics of Ionic Bonding
As we saw in the last chapter, it takes 495 kJ/mol to remove electrons from sodium.
Energetics of Ionic Bonding
We get 349 kJ/mol back by giving electrons to chlorine.
Energetics of Ionic Bonding
• But these numbers don’t explain why the reaction of sodium metal and chlorine gas to form sodium chloride is so exothermic!
Energetics of Ionic Bonding• There must be a third
piece to the puzzle.• What is as yet
unaccounted for is the electrostatic attraction between the newly formed sodium cation and chloride anion.
Lattice Energy
• This third piece of the puzzle is the lattice energy:The energy required to completely separate a mole of a
solid ionic compound into its gaseous ions.
• The energy associated with electrostatic interactions is governed by Coulomb’s law:
Eel = Q1Q2
d
Lattice Energy
• Lattice energy, then, increases with the charge on the ions.
• It also increases with decreasing size of ions.
Energetics of Ionic Bonding
By accounting for all three energies (ionization energy, electron affinity, and lattice energy), we can get a good idea of the energetics involved in such a process.
Energetics of Ionic Bonding
• These phenomena also helps explain the “octet rule.”
• Metals, for instance, tend to stop losing electrons once they attain a noble gas configuration because energy would be expended that cannot be overcome by lattice energies.
Covalent Bonding• In these bonds atoms share
electrons.• There are several electrostatic
interactions in these bonds:– Attractions between electrons
and nuclei– Repulsions between electrons– Repulsions between nuclei
Polar Covalent Bonds
• Although atoms often form compounds by sharing electrons, the electrons are not always shared equally.
• Fluorine pulls harder on the electrons it shares with hydrogen than hydrogen does.
• Therefore, the fluorine end of the molecule has more electron density than the hydrogen end.
Electronegativity is the ability of an atom to attract toward itself the electrons in a chemical bond.
Electron Affinity - measurable, Cl is highest
Electronegativity - relative, F is highest
X (g) + e- X-(g)

Electronegativity:
• The ability of atoms in a molecule to attract electrons to itself.
• On the periodic chart, electronegativity increases as you go…– …from left to right across
a row.– …from the bottom to the
top of a column.
Polar Covalent Bonds
• When two atoms share electrons unequally, a bond dipole results.
• The dipole moment, , produced by two equal but opposite charges separated by a distance, r, is calculated:
= Qr• It is measured in debyes (D).
Polar Covalent Bonds
The greater the difference in electronegativity, the more polar is the bond.

Classify the following bonds as ionic, polar covalent, or covalent: The bond in CsCl; the bond in H2S; andthe NN bond in H2NNH2.
Cs – 0.7 Cl – 3.0 3.0 – 0.7 = 2.3 Ionic
H – 2.1 S – 2.5 2.5 – 2.1 = 0.4 Polar Covalent
N – 3.0 N – 3.0 3.0 – 3.0 = 0 Covalent

Lewis Structures
Lewis structures are representations of molecules showing all electrons, bonding and nonbonding.
Writing Lewis Structures
1. Find the sum of valence electrons of all atoms in the polyatomic ion or molecule.– If it is an anion, add one
electron for each negative charge.
– If it is a cation, subtract one electron for each positive charge.
PCl35 + 3(7) = 26
Writing Lewis Structures
2. The central atom is the least electronegative element that isn’t hydrogen. Connect the outer atoms to it by single bonds.
Keep track of the electrons:
26 6 = 20
Writing Lewis Structures
3. Fill the octets of the outer atoms.
Keep track of the electrons:
26 6 = 20 18 = 2
Writing Lewis Structures
4. Fill the octet of the central atom.
Keep track of the electrons:
26 6 = 20 18 = 2 2 = 0
Writing Lewis Structures
5. If you run out of electrons before the central atom has an octet…
…form multiple bonds until it does.
Writing Lewis Structures• Then assign formal charges.
– For each atom, count the electrons in lone pairs and half the electrons it shares with other atoms.
– Subtract that from the number of valence electrons for that atom: The difference is its formal charge.
Writing Lewis Structures
• The best Lewis structure…– …is the one with the fewest charges.– …puts a negative charge on the most
electronegative atom.
A resonance structure is one of two or more Lewis structures for a single molecule that cannot be represented accurately by only one Lewis structure.

The enthalpy change required to break a particular bond in one mole of gaseous molecules is the bond energy.
H2 (g) H (g) + H (g) H0 = 436.4 kJ
Cl2 (g) Cl (g)+ Cl (g) H0 = 242.7 kJ
HCl (g) H (g) + Cl (g) H0 = 431.9 kJ
