Metals can have various charges, so you MUST specify which one you have!

The charge of a metal is indicated by a Roman Numeral.

Exceptions: Groups 1 & 2, Silver (Ag), and Zinc (Zn) have only one charge, so they do not get Roman numerals in their names!

Examples:1.) Copper (II) = Cu+2

2.) Iron (III) = Fe+2

Name the following transition metal ions:1.) Cr+2

2.) Cr+3

3.) Mn+2

4.) Mn+3

5.) Pt+2

6.) Pt+4

Octet Rule: Atoms lose or gain electrons to match the valence electron configuration of a noble gas.

Atoms gain or lose electrons because they want to be more stable.

Full valence shells = stable atoms

1.) Determine number of electrons2.) Write electron configuration

Example: Fluorine ion = F-1

Fluorine ion has 10 electronsElectron configuration is 1s22s22p6

Neon also has 10 electrons and has the same electron configuration, so F-1 and neon are isoelectronic.

Determine the electron configuration of the following ions and write which noble gas they are isoelectronic with.

1.) Lithium ion2.) Magnesium ion3.) Calcium ion

Determine the electron configuration of the following ions and write which noble gas they are isoelectronic with.

1.) Lithium ion (2 electrons): 1s2

isoelectronic with helium2.) Magnesium ion (10 electrons): 1s22s22p6

isoelectronic with neon3.) Calcium ion (18 electrons): 1s22s22p63s23p6

isoelectronic with argon

Transfer of electrons Metal + Nonmetal Ions come together due to electrostatic

attraction (opposites attract)

Determine if the following compounds are ionic:

NaCl : metal and nonmetal = ionic CO2 : metal and nonmetal = not ionic

Determine if the following compounds are ionic:

1.) CO2.) MgCl23.) CaBr2

4.) H2O

5.) LiF

Determine if the following compounds are ionic:

1.) CO = nonmetal + nonmetal = not ionic2.) MgCl2 = metal + nonmetal = ionic

3.) CaBr2 = metal + nonmetal = ionic

4.) H2O = metal + metal = not ionic

5.) LiF = metal + nonmental = ionic

Na (1 valence e-) + Cl ( 7 valence e-) Na+ ion (8 valence e-) + Cl- ion (8 valence e-):

The result is a positively charged sodium ion (left) and a negatively chorline atom (right). Both have full outer shells!

Soidum (on the left) loses its one valence electron to chlorine (on the right)

Ionic compounds organize in characteristic crystal lattice of alternating positive and negative ions.

Unit Cell: The smallest portion of a crystal lattice that shows the three-dimensional pattern of the entire lattice.

When ionic bonds are formed, the energy that is released is called the lattice energy.

Alternatively, you can think of it as the amount of energy required to break the ionic bonds of a compound.

Sodium chloride (NaCl) dissolves in water: low lattice energy

Magnesium oxide (MgO) does not dissolve in water: high lattice energy

Solid at room temperature High boiling/melting points Dissolve in water Conduct electricity Hard (the crystal is able to resist a large

force applied to it) Brittle (applied force results in fracture, not

dents)

1.) Identify the state of matter-should be a solid at room temperature

2.) Tap it-will not break (hard) OR-will fracture if it breaks (brittle)

3.) Heat it-will only melt at high temperatures

4.) Shock it-will conduct electricity

5.) Dissolve it in water-will dissolve in water
