Chemical BondsChemical BondsChemical BondsChemical Bonds
Valence electrons are those electrons in the outermost shell of an
atom that can be used to form a chemical
bond.
The oxidation states of an element (listed for each element in your
periodic table) tell you how many electrons an
element will take or give up to form a chemical bond.
Atomic Symbol: CAtomic Name: CarbonOxidation States: 4, -4, and 2.A negative oxidation state means the element will gain electron(s) from another element.
A positive oxidation state means that the element will give up it’s electron(s).
What are the oxidation states for I or Iodine?
-1 Iodine will take 1 electron (leaving a – charge)
+1 Iodine will give 1 electron (leaves a + charge)
+5 Iodine will give 5 electrons (leaves a + charge)
+7 Iodine will give 7 electrons (leaves a + charge)
Iodine: -1, 1, 5, and 7.
What does each number mean?
All atoms want to have their outermost electron shell filled with electrons. In order to do this an
atom will either gain or lose electrons.
All atoms want to follow the Octet Rule:
All the atoms in the chemical reaction will seek to have their outer most electron shells filled
by either adding electrons to reach 8 or losing all electrons in
their outer most shell.
Types of BondsTypes of BondsTypes of BondsTypes of BondsA A Covalent BondCovalent Bond is formed is formed when two atoms share when two atoms share their outermost electrons.their outermost electrons.
H H
Ex: Hydrogen has 1 electron in its outermost shell.
H H
In this example of a covalent bond the electrons from the hydrogen atoms can move between the two hydrogen atoms.
H H
H2 is formed because the 2 outermost electrons are shared between the two hydrogen atoms.

Na Cl
How many electrons are found on the outermost electron shell of Na and Cl?
Na Cl
Na has 1 electron and Cl has 7 in their outermost electron shell.
Na Cl
What would be easier to transfer, 1 electron from Na or 7 electrons from Cl?
Na Cl
1 electron from Na is transferred to Cl.
Na

This is called electrostatic attraction.
• They are all gases• They are all in the last
column of the Periodic Table of Elements
• They all have their outermost electron shell filled.
Looking at your Periodic Table of Elements, what do you notice about the elements, He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe, and Rn?
These gases are called Noble or Inert Gases because they will not
chemically bond with any other elements because their outermost electron
shell is filled.
How to determine if a bond How to determine if a bond is covalent, metallic is covalent, metallic covalent, or ionic?covalent, or ionic?
How to determine if a bond How to determine if a bond is covalent, metallic is covalent, metallic covalent, or ionic?covalent, or ionic?
Use the electronegativity constants Use the electronegativity constants on the backside of your Periodic on the backside of your Periodic Table of Elements (small green Table of Elements (small green
number).number).
Example: What type of bond is CO?
1. What is the electronegativity of C? C= 2.55
2. What is the electronegativity of O? O= 3.5
3. Subtract the difference between the two constants and round to the nearest tenth.
(Oxygen) 3.50 – (Carbon) 2.55 = 0.95 or 1.0
4. Use the Percent 4. Use the Percent Ionic Character Ionic Character table located on table located on
the handout called the handout called “Electronegativity”“Electronegativity”
1.0 = 22%. This is 1.0 = 22%. This is less than 50% Ionic less than 50% Ionic Character, so CO is Character, so CO is
formed by a formed by a COVALENT BONDCOVALENT BOND..
1.0 = 22%. This is 1.0 = 22%. This is less than 50% Ionic less than 50% Ionic Character, so CO is Character, so CO is
formed by a formed by a COVALENT BONDCOVALENT BOND..
Example: What type of bond is PbCr2
1. What is the electronegativity of Pb? Pb = 2.33
2. What is the electronegativity of Cr?Cr = 1.66
3. Subtract the difference between the two constants and round to the nearest tenth.
(Lead) 2.33 – (Chromium)1.66 = 0.67 or
0.7
4. Use the Percent 4. Use the Percent Ionic Character Ionic Character table located on table located on
the handout called the handout called “Electronegativity“Electronegativity
””0.7 = 12%. This is less 0.7 = 12%. This is less
than 50% Ionic Character,than 50% Ionic Character, and both elements forming
the bond are metals, therefore the bond is a
METALLIC COVALENT METALLIC COVALENT BONDBOND..
0.7 = 12%. This is less 0.7 = 12%. This is less than 50% Ionic Character,than 50% Ionic Character,
and both elements forming the bond are metals,
therefore the bond is a METALLIC COVALENT METALLIC COVALENT
BONDBOND..
