Molecules and Covalent Compounds

Diatomic Elements

• These elements share electrons to form diatomic, covalent molecules.

Electron-Dot Diagrams (Lewis Structures)

Electron-dot diagrams show

• The order of bonded atoms in a covalent compound.

• The bonding pairs of electrons between atoms.

• The unshared (lone) valence electrons. (nonbonding)

• A central atom with an octet.

Multiple Bonds in N2

In nitrogen N2,

• Octets are achieved by sharing three pairs of electrons, which is a triple bond.

Properties of Bonds

Bond Length Distance between 2 nuclei Triple bond < Double Bond < Single Bond

Bond Strength Energy required to separate 2 nuclei Triple bond > Double Bond > Single Bond

Lewis Dot Structures

Example: CO

:C : : : O:

Coordinate Covalent Bonds - bond in which there is an uneven contribution of the shared electron pairs.

Lewis Dot Structures extended As long as all the atoms in your molecule are

satisfied under the octet rule (exception is H with only 2 electrons), then you have an acceptable Lewis Dot Structure.

Not always easy to decide how to position electrons in a molecule to form the “stable 8” configuration for each atom.

Drawing Lewis Structures

Example: SO3

1. Determine the arrangement of the atoms in the molecule. (Symmetry is key - first atom usually is the central atom unless it is an H)

O

S

O O

Drawing Lewis Structures,

continued 2. Determine the total number of valence electrons present.

O

S

O O S = 6 valence electrons O = 6 valence electrons x 3 = 18 TOTAL = 24

Drawing Lewis Structures,

continued… 3. Determine the total number of valence electrons the molecule (or ion) will need to have a noble gas configuration.

Nobel Gas Count H 2 S, O, F, … 8

Drawing Lewis Structures,

continued… 3. Determine the total number of valence electrons the molecule (or ion) will need to have a noble gas configuration.

O

S

O O

Valence count = 24

Noble Gas count = 8 x 4 = 32

Drawing Lewis Structures,

continued… 4. Determine the number of bonding electron pairs needed:Noble Gas count (step 3) - Valence (step 2)

2= Total number of bonds

SO3 32 - 24 = 4 bonds 2

Drawing Lewis Structures,

continued… 5. Write in the skeletal structure, the bonding electron pairs and the nonbonding pairs of electrons to satisfy octet rule.

6. Check the electron dot structure to confirm that the total number of electrons present is the same as the valence count in step 2

THIS ONLY WORKS FOR SYSTEMS THAT FOLLOW THE OCTET RULE - NO EXCEPTIONS!!!!

Resonance Structures

Two or more Lewis Dot structures that have the same arrangement of atoms and the same number of electrons, but differ in the location of the electrons (bonds)

Naming Covalent Compounds Covalent Compounds

Greek Prefixes Common Names H-first(BINARY = 2 ELEMENTS)

Naming Binary Covalent Compounds First word of name:

Greek prefix + name of first element Note: if the prefix would be “mono” for the first element,

the prefix is not included Note: when an element name begins with a vowel, an a

or o at the end of the Greek prefix is dropped for phonetic reasons

Second word of name Greek prefix + stem of name of second element

with “-ide” ending
