Chapter 3 Molecules, Ions and Compounds Molecules A molecule is the smallest particle of an element that can have a stable independent existence. Usually have 2 or more atoms bonded together Examples of molecules H 2 O 2 S 8 H 2 O CH 4 C 2 H 5 OH Chemical Formulas Chemical formula shows the chemical composition of the substance. ratio of the elements present in the molecule or compound He, Au, Na monatomic elements O 2, H 2, Cl 2, F 2, I 2, N 2, Br 2 diatomic elements (molecules) O 3, S 4, P 8 - more complex molecules H 2 O, C 12 H 22 O 11 compounds Substance consists of two or more different elements 1

Chemical Formulas Compound 1 Molecule Contains HCl 1 H atom & 1 Cl atom H 2 O NH 3 C 3 H 8 2 H atoms & 1 O atom 1 N atom & 3 H atoms 3 C atoms & 8 H atoms Chemical bonds Attractive forces that hold atoms together in compounds are called chemical bonds. Chemical bonds are classified into two types: o Ionic bonding results from electrostatic attractions among ions, which are formed by the transfer of one or more electrons from one atom to another. o Covalent bonding results from sharing one or more electron pairs between two atoms. Ionic Bonding Formation of Ionic Compounds An ion is an atom or a group of atoms possessing a net electrical charge. 1. positive (+) ions or cations These atoms have lost 1 or more electrons. 2. negative (-) ions or anions These atoms have gained 1 or more electrons. 2

Ions and Ionic Compounds Ions are atoms or groups of atoms that possess an electric charge. Two basic types of ions: Positive ions or cations one or more electrons less than neutral Na +, Ca 2+, Al 3+ NH 4+ - polyatomic cation Negative ions or anions one or more electrons more than neutral F -, O 2-, N 3- SO 4 2-, PO 4 3-, HCO 3- - polyatomic anions You must know the names, formulas, and charges of the elements and common ions in the handout. Formation of Ionic Compounds Ionic bonds are formed by the attraction of cations for anions usually to form solids. Commonly, metals react with nonmetals to form ionic compounds. The formation of NaCl is one example of an ionic compound formation. Formation of Ionic Compounds Reaction of Group IA Metals with Group VIIA Nonmetals G -1metal 2 Li silver solid (s) + G -17 nometal F yellow gas 2(g) 2 LiF (s) white solid with an 842 o melting point C 3

Formation of Ionic Compounds The reaction of potassium with bromine is a second example of a group IA metal with a Group IIA non metal. IA metal VIIA nonmetal 2 K (s) + Br2( l ) 2 KBr (s) ionic solid Formation of Ionic Compounds Simple Binary Ionic Compounds Table Reacting Groups Compound General Formula Example IA + VIIA MX NaF IIA + VIIA MX 2 BaCl 2 IIIA + VIIA MX 3 AlF 3 IA + VIA M 2 X Na 2 O IIA + VIA MX BaO IIIA + VIA M 2 X 3 Al 2 S 3 4

Formation of Ionic Compounds Reacting Groups Compound General Formula Example IA + VA M 3 X Na 3 N IIA + VA M 3 X 2 Mg 3 P 2 IIIA + VA MX AlN H, a nonmetal, forms ionic compounds with IA and IIA metals for example, LiH, KH, CaH 2, and BaH 2. Other hydrogen compounds are covalent. Binary compounds are made of two elements. metal + nonmetal = ionic compound nonmetal + nonmetal = covalent compound Name the more metallic element first. Use the element s name. Name the less metallic element second. Add the suffix ide to the element s stem.
