ISSUES TO ADDRESS...
What promotes bonding?
What types of bonds are there?
What properties are inferred from bonding?
Atomic Structure and
Bonding in Solids
Study of Structure of Atoms The structure of atoms is important to Materials
Engineers because it influences the way atoms are
bonded together which in turn helps us to categorize
the materials that they form.
The atomic structure and bonding also allows us to
formulate some general conclusions on the
mechanical and physical properties of the material.

areas of positive and negative charges present in the
binding atoms and/or molecules

Primary Bonding

Ionic Covalent Metallic
For each type, the bonding necessarily involves
the valence electrons.
In general, each of these types arises from the
tendency of the atoms to assume stable electron
structures, like those in inert gases by completely
filling the outermost shell

Electronic Structure of Atoms
Some of the electronic structure-chemicalproperty relationships for metals and non-
metals:
Metals Non-metals
1. Have few electrons inouter shells usually threeor less
1. Have four or moreelectrons in outer shells
2. Form cations by losingelectrons
2. Form anions by gainingelectrons
3. Have lowelectronegativities
3. Have highelectronegativities
21
Ionic Bonding
Found in compounds that are composed of bothmetallic and non-metallic.
Occurs by electron transfer Metal: Donates electrons
Non-metal: Accepts electrons
Ions are attracted by strongcoulombic attraction Oppositely charged atoms attract
An ionic bond is non-directional (ions
may be attracted to one another in anydirection)
Note relative sizes of ions:
Na (metal) shrinks and Cl (nonmetal)expands

Bonding Forces and Energies
Interatomic forces determine the physical propertiesof materials. There are two types of forces:
1. the attractive force: Oppositely charged ions attractedby Coulombic forces (nucleus of one ion will attract theelectron charge cloud of the other ion and vice versa)
2. the repulsive forces: as the ions closer together, theirelectron charge clouds will interact and repulsive forceswill arise.
The net force between a pair of oppositely chargedions:
Fnet = Fattractive +Frepulsive

Bonding Forces and Energies
The attractive force between the ion pair is theCoulombic force that results when the ions areconsidered as point charges.

Covalent Bonding
Formed when electrons are shared betweenatoms
Between non-metals and non-metals or hydrogenand non-metals
They share electrons so that both of them canhave a stable octet
Covalent bonds are HIGHLY directional bonds
There are two types of covalent bonds:
1. Non-polar: result when two exact non-metalsequally share electrons.
2. Polar: result when two different non-metals shareelectrons. 33

Covalent Bonding (Examples)
35
Covalent Bonding (Properties)
1. Generally have much lower melting and boilingpoints than ionic compounds
2. Soft and squishy (compared to ionic compounds)
3. Tend to be more flammable than ionic compounds
4. Do not conduct electricity in water
5. Usually not very soluble in water
Like dissolves like (compounds tend to dissolve inother compounds that have similar properties
(particularly polarity) Water is polar solvent and most covalent compounds
are fairly nonpolar

Metallic Bonding
Occurs in metallic substances
Arises from a sea of donated valence electrons that
floats around the surface of metals
Non-directional
37
Metallic Bonding (Properties)
1. Strong materials with high melting and boiling
points (Bonding is very strong)
2. Good conductors of electricity and heat
Free electrons carry the charge of an electriccurrent when a voltage is applied.
3. Silvery surface
This may be easily tarnished by corrosiveoxidation in air and water
4. Very malleable (due to mobility of electrons) Can be readily bent, pressed or hammered into
shape.
Layers of atoms can slide over each otherwithout fracturing the structure

Secondary, Van der Waals, or Physical bonds are weakin comparison to primary bonds
Exists between virtually all atoms or molecules, but itspresence may be obscured if any of the three primarybonding types is present
