Covalent Bonding Covalent bonds are formed when two nonmetals combine The atoms share electrons. If the atoms share 2 electrons a single covalent bond is formed. If the atoms share 4 electrons a double covalent bond is formed. If the atoms share 6 electrons a triple covalent bond is formed. 2
Formation of Covalent Bonds Representation of the formation of an 2 molecule from atoms. 3
Formation of Covalent Bonds We can use Electron dot formulas to show covalent bond formation. Electron Dot formulas are a way to represent the number of valence electrons graphically. Each element in a molecule must have eight dots representing electrons when full shell is made Exceptions: (2 dots); e (2 dots); Group 3A (B, Al ) 6 dots; some transition metals and some elements at row 3 and below can have 10 or more dots. 4
Writing Electron Dot Formulas:The Octet Rule The octet rule states that representative elements usually attain stable noble gas electron configurations in most of their compounds. Electron dot formulas are based on the octet rule. 5
Writing Electron Dot Formulas:The Octet Rule Write the element symbol Write in a counter clockwise fashion, the valence electrons of the elements 6
Writing Electron Dot Formulas Determine the central atom Place the other atoms near the central atom Count the total number of valence electrons Make a single bond between the two atoms For a single bond, 2 dots 1 single bond Represent by Place the remaining electrons around each atom to give the atoms an octet (8 electrons, remember the exceptions) 7
Writing Electron Dot Formulas:The Octet Rule If the atoms do not get an octet before the electrons run out, use multiple bonds. For double bond, 4 dots double bond Represent by = For triple bond, 6 dots triple bond Represent by 8

Naming Some Inorganic Compounds Covalent molecular compounds composed of two nonmetals other than hydrogen Nomenclature must include prefixes that specify the number of atoms of each element in the compound. Use the minimum number of prefixes necessary to specify the compound. Frequently drop the prefix mono-. 16

Polar and Nonpolar Covalent Bonds Covalent bonds in which the electrons are shared equally are designated as nonpolar covalent bonds. Nonpolar covalent bonds have a symmetrical charge distribution. To be nonpolar the two atoms involved in the bond must be the same element or have the similar electronegativity to share equally. 24
Polar and Nonpolar Covalent Bonds Some examples of nonpolar covalent bonds.. or 2 N 2 N N or N N 25
Polar and Nonpolar Covalent Bonds Covalent bonds in which the electrons are not shared equally are designated as polar covalent bonds Polar covalent bonds have an asymmetrical charge distribution To be a polar covalent bond the two atoms involved in the bond must have different electronegativities. 26

Dipole Moments Molecules whose centers of positive and negative charge do not coincide, have an asymmetric charge distribution, and are polar. These molecules have a dipole moment. The dipole moment has the symbol µ. 30 δ + - - Fδ 1.91 Debye units δ + - - I δ 0.38 Debye units
Dipole Moments There are some nonpolar molecules that have polar bonds. There are two conditions that must be true for a molecule to be polar. 1. There must be at least one polar bond present or one lone pair of electrons. 2. The polar bonds, if there are more than one, and lone pairs must be arranged so that their dipole moments do not cancel one another. 31

VSEPR TEORY Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion Theory Commonly designated as VSEPR Principal originator R. J. Gillespie in the 1950 s Arrange electrons as far apart as possible to minimize repulsion Give the shape of the molecule 33
Predicting Shapes The same basic approach will be used in every example of molecular structure prediction: 1. Draw the correct Electron dot structure. Identify the central atom. Designate the bonding pairs and lone pairs of electrons on central atom. 2. Count the regions of high electron density on the central atom. Include both bonding and lone pairs in the counting. 34
Predicting Shapes 3. Determine the electronic geometry around the central atom. VSEPR is a guide to the geometry. 4. Determine the molecular geometry around the central atom. Ignore the lone pairs of electrons. 5. Determine polarity from the molecular geometry using electronegativity differences. 35
VSEPR Theory Regions of high electron density around the central atom are arranged as far apart as possible to minimize repulsions. There are 5 basic molecular shapes that we will use. 36
VSEPR Theory 1 Two regions of high electron density around the central atom. 37
VSEPR Theory 2 Three regions of high electron density around the central atom. 38
VSEPR Theory 3 Four regions of high electron density around the central atom. 39
40
VSEPR Theory Frequently, we describe two geometries for each molecule. 1. Electronic geometry is determined by the locations of regions of high electron density around the central atom(s). 2. Molecular geometry determined by the arrangement of atoms around the central atom(s). Electron pairs are not used in the molecular geometry determination just the positions of the atoms in the molecule are used. 41
VSEPR Theory An example of a molecule that has the same electronic and molecular geometries is methane - C 4. Electronic and molecular geometries are tetrahedral. 42 C
VSEPR Theory An example of a molecule that has different electronic and molecular geometries is water - 2 O. Electronic geometry is tetrahedral. Molecular geometry is bent or angular. C 43
Polar Molecules: The Influence of Molecular Geometry Molecular geometry affects molecular polarity. Due to the effect of the bond dipoles and how they either cancel or reinforce each other. 44 A B A linear molecule nonpolar A B A angular molecule polar
Polar Molecules: The Influence of Molecular Geometry Polar Molecules must meet two requirements: 1. One polar bond or one lone pair of electrons on central atom. 2. Neither bonds nor lone pairs can be symmetrically arranged that their polarities cancel. 45
Molecular Shapes and Bonding A = central atom B = bonding pairs around central atom U = lone pairs around central atom For example: AB 3 U designates that there are 3 bonding pairs and 1 lone pair around the central atom. 46
