Title: Lewis Dot Diagrams
1Lewis Dot Diagrams
2Energy in the atom
- Charged particles called electrons surround the
nucleus in regions called shells or energy levels
3- Atoms of different elements have different
numbers of electrons - Each shell is full before electrons move to the
next shell.
4- Period number number of electron shells
- Shells will fill in the following order 2, 8,
8,18 - Group number number of valence electrons (look
at the second digit of the group number)
5Trends
- Elements of the same group have similar
properties because they have the same number of
electrons in their outer shell. - The outer shell valence shell
- Electrons that occupy the valence shell are
called valence electrons
6Noble gas configuration
- Group 18, the noble gases are the most stable of
elements because their valence shell is full with
electrons - Less energy required
- Stable octet
7Lewis Dot diagrams
- Visual representation of an element and only its
valence electrons - Example sodium, Na has one valence so it has 1
dot representing that electron. - Chlorine has 7 electrons.
- Electrons get paired up along 4 sides of the
element.
8Bonding
- Ionic bonding attraction between oppositely
charged ions formed when metallic ions ()
transfer electron(s) to nonmetallic ions (-) - Ex NaCl
9- Not always 11 ratio, sometimes need to use
subscript to show the number of atoms - Ex CaCl2 The 2 is a subscript, it shows that 2
atoms of chlorine bond with one atom of calcium. - The charges need to have a sum of zero
10Covalent / Molecular bonding
- Formed when a pair of electrons is shared by two
non-metal atoms. - A single bond is formed when one pair of
electrons is shared. - Example diatomic molecules, like O2, H2, N2,
F2, Cl2
11Single bonds
12Polar Covalent Bonding
- Electrons are shared unequally.
- They are not ionic, because the electron is not
totally removed because there was not enough
attraction to totally remove the electron.
13Polar covalent bond
14- When you have a polar covalent bond, one atom
will attract an electron closer than the other. - Called polar molecules because one end is
slightly positive and one end is slightly negative
15Water is Polar!
- Water is very common polar compound.
- The hydrogen are slightly positive (because
almost gave up e-) - The oxygen is slightly negative (because almost
took the e-)
16Naming Compounds the rules!
171st What are polyatomic ions?
- Ions that are made of multiple atoms covalently
bonded together. - We treat them like a unit
- Example sulfate, SO4-2 so sulfur and oxygen
form a negative ion (-2)
18Given the Formula Fe2(SO4)3
- Step One The cation is always the first thing
you see in the name, and the anion is always the
second thing. In this case, you should recognize
that Fe is "iron", and that SO4 is the "sulfate"
ion. Generally, if one of these ions has more
than one atom in it, you'll need to look it up in
a chart. - you need to know eight of the polyatomic ions
hydroxide, nitrate, nitrite, sulfate, sulfite,
carbonate, phosphate, ammonium.
19- Step Two Figure out if you need a Roman numeral
in the name. If the cation in the compound
you're naming is not a transition metal (group
3-12), then you definitely don't need to use a
Roman numeral and the naming is done. If there
is, then you need to figure out whether or not
the cation can exist in more than one charge. If
not, then you don't need a Roman numeral. If so,
then move on to Step Three...
20- Step Three Figure out what the Roman numeral
should be Basically, this should be fairly easy.
A good rule of thumb is that usually the number
of anions you have in the molecule is equal to
the charge on the cation, and that the number of
cations you have is equal to the number of
anions. Using our example, there are three
sulfate ions, meaning that iron has a charge of
3. Likewise, since there are two iron atoms, the
sulfate has a charge of -2. Since iron has a
charge of 3 in this compound, the name in this
example is iron (III) sulfate
21Given the name, find the formula
- Step One Translate the name into the ions In
copper (II) fluoride, the cation is the copper
(II) ion and the anion is the fluoride ion.
Hopefully, you realize that the copper (II) ion
is simply Cu2 and the fluoride ion is F-. If
not, then you need to go back and review the
rules for naming ions above.
22- Step Two Put brackets around the ions, but leave
the charges on the outside. In this case, the
copper (II) ion would be Cu2 and the fluoride
ion would be F-1. Never change anything in
these brackets, ever! - Step Three Put the ions next to each other.
When we do this here, we get Cu2F-1
23- Step Four Cross the charges The charge on the
cation will be equal to the number of anions you
have, and the charge on the anion will be equal
to the number of cations you have. In our
example, you should realize that we have one
copper atom (because the charge on fluorine is
-1) and two fluoride ions (because the charge on
copper is 2). This gives us a formula of
CuF2 - Step Five Take the brackets away. The final
formula for copper (II) fluoride is then CuF2
24Naming Covalent compounds
- All covalent compounds have two word names. The
first word typically corresponds to the first
element in the formula and the second corresponds
to the second element in the formula except that
"-ide" is substituted for the end. As a result,
HF is named "hydrogen fluoride", because hydrogen
is the first element and fluorine is the second
element
25If there is more than one atom of an element in a
molecule, we need to add prefixes to these words
to tell us how many are present. Here are the
prefixes you'll need to remember
