Covalent Bonds

Form when two or more non-metal atoms SHARE electrons.

There is no transfer of electrons.

Covalent Bonds

What holds a covalent bond together?

Covalent Bonds

These are the three types of chemical bonds that you must know:

Covalent Bonds

Using electronegativity to determine what kind of bond will form

Covalent Bonds

Non-Polar Covalent Bond Electronegativity values for the two atoms are

equal Atoms attract electrons with the same force Electrons are shared equally.

Page 7: Covalent Bonds. Form when two or more non-metal atoms SHARE electrons. There is no transfer of electrons

Covalent Bonds

Polar Covalent Bonds Electronegativity values differ significantly Electrons are shared unequally Electrons are found by the atom with the highest

electronegativity.

Covalent Bonds

Ionic Bond Review Electronegativity values are extremely different Electron spends so much time at the atom with

high electronegativity, it is thought as being “transferred” to that atom

Covalent Bonds

Electronegativity Difference and Bond Character

Electronegativity Difference

Type of Bond

0.0 – 0.5 Non-polar covalent

0.6 – 1.9 Polar Covalent

2.0 – 3.3 Ionic

Covalent Bonds

DipolesOccur in polar covalent bonds Electrons spend more time around the atom with higher electronegative chargeGives the molecule a partial positive and

negative charge called a dipole

Covalent Bonds

Dipoles Symbol: Lower case Greek Delta (δ) Means “partial” δ+ stands for the positive end

of the molecule δ- stands for the negative

end of the moleculeTHIS IS DOES NOT MEAN THEBOND IS IONIC! This just show where the electron is mostly

likely to be located!

Important!

Properties of Covalent Substances

Soft Poor conductors of heat Poor conductors of electricity

There are no charged particles – no ions Low melting and boiling points due to weak

attraction between molecules Low solubility in water Can be liquid, solid or gas
