Why do atoms form bonds?
To become more stable
What is a bond?
• A mutual electrical attraction between the nuclei and valence electrons of different atoms that binds the atoms together.
Bonding Forces
Electron – electron repulsive forces
Proton – proton repulsive forces
Electron – proton attractive forces
Three types of bonds
What type of bond will form?
• Type of bond is dependent on differences in electronegativity
A measure of the
ability of an atom in a chemical compound to attract electrons
Remember- Electronegativity is …
Rule of thumb
• Metal and non-metal usually form an ionic bond
• Non-metal and non-metal from a covalent bond
• Metals come together to form metallic bonds

Properties of each type of bond
A chemical bond that results in the sharing of electrons between two atoms
Covalent Bond
Characteristics of Covalent Bonds a) Usually occur between atoms of nonmetals
b) Result in a particle called a molecule
c) Have low melting points (therefore are not solids at room temperature)
d) Do not usually conduct electricity.
Characteristics of Covalent Bonds a) Usually occur between atoms of nonmetals
b) Result in a particle called a molecule
c) Have low melting points (therefore are not solids at room temperature)
d) Do not usually conduct electricity.
Ionic Bond
• The chemical bond resulting from the electrostatic attraction between
positive and negative ions.
Electrons are transferred
• Opposite charges attract (electrostatic force)
Ionic substances have predictable characteristics. a) Have extremely high melting points b) Tend to be soluble in water. c) Usually form a crystalline lattice structure as a solid. d) Are good conductors of electricity in the molten state.
Metallic BondingBonding that occurs between atoms of a metal due to
delocalized electrons forming an electron sea
Characteristics of Metallic Bonding
• The highly mobile “sea of electrons” in metals account for its high conductivity.
• Metals are better conductors of heat and electricity than ionic and molecular compounds.
• Metals are also malleable, ductile and shiny.

2. Lewis structures with large formal charges are less plausible than those with small formal charges.

What shape do molecules have?
Determined by Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion Theory
VSEPR Theory- electrostatic repulsion between the valence-level pairs surrounding an atom causes these pairs to be oriented as far
apart as possible.
What does it mean?
Valence shell electron pair repulsion (VSEPR) model:
Predict the geometry of the molecule from the electrostatic repulsions between the electron (bonding and nonbonding) pairs.

Molecular Forces
• Intramolecular Forces– The forces of attraction between atoms in
a molecule.– Covalent, Ionic, Metallic bonds
• Intermolecular Forces– The forces of attraction between
molecules.– Dipole-dipole, Hydrogen bonding, and
London dispersion forces.
Dipole-Dipole Forces- force of attraction found when the positive end of one polar molecule is attracted to the negative end of another polar molecule.
Dipole- equal but opposite charge separated by a short distance.Polarity is dependent upon differences in electronegativity and the symmetry of the molecule
- NH3, HF, H2O, CH3Cl are all polar - CO2, CCl4 are nonpolar
. Hydrogen Bonding- a particularly strong dipole-
dipole attractive force formed when
hydrogen bonds with a strongly electronegative
nonmetal (F, O, or N) 1. Polar Bonds cause
hydrogen to leave its electrons almost exposed.
ie. water
A nonpolar molecule is transformed into a dipole due to a distortion of its’ electron cloud in response to an approaching dipole. -Negative end of the dipole molecule causes an imbalance of the electron cloud in the nonpolar molecule and therefore a bulging away. * ie. water solutions of iodine. Water is polar but iodine molecules are nonpolar
London Dispersion Forces
Intermolecular attractive force that exist from the creation of instananeous or temporary dipoles .
-They are the only force of attraction between nonpolar molecules.
- They increase in significance as molecularsize increases.
