CovalentBonds
LET’SFIRSTREVIEWIONICBONDING
In an IONIC bond,electrons are lost or gained,resulting in the formation of IONS
in ionic compounds.

The compound potassium fluorideconsists of potassium (K+) ions
and fluoride (F-) ions

The ionic bond is the attractionbetween the positive K+ ion
and the negative F- ion
Sowhatarecovalentbonds?
In covalent bonding,atoms still want to achievea noble gas configuration(the octet rule).
In covalent bonding,atoms still want to achievea noble gas configuration(the octet rule).
But rather than losing or gainingelectrons,atoms now share an electron pair.

The shared electron pairis called a bonding pair

ClClHowwilltwochlorineatomsreact?
ClClEach chlorine atom wants to gain one electron to achieve an octet
ClClNeither atom will give up an electron –chlorine is highly electronegative.
What’s the solution – what can theydo to achieve an octet?

This is the bonding pair
Cl Cl
circle the electrons foreach atom that completestheir octets
It is a single bonding pair
Cl Cl
circle the electrons foreach atom that completestheir octets
It is called a SINGLE BOND

Single bonds are abbreviatedwith a dash
