Homework:
•Read section 8.1
•Answer questions 3, 4, 5, and 6 on page 214
Do you remember what makes a “happy atom”?
Atoms want:
•Plus & minus charges to balance
•Electron shells to be exactly full
Do you remember what makes a “happy atom”?
Sodium is unhappy.
It has one more electron than will fit in its second shell.
Chlorine is unhappy.
It is missing one electron from its third shell.
Do you remember what makes a “happy atom”?
Sodium gives its extra electron to chlorine.
They are still unhappy. Why?
Sodium has a positive charge.
Chloride has a negative charge.
Do you remember what makes a “happy atom”?
But if they stay attached to one another, they can make each other happy.
In an ionic bond, the total charges balance out.

Ionic BondsElements from the far right of the periodic table will form ionic bonds with elements from the far left of the table.
Ionic BondsElements from the far right of the periodic table will form ionic bonds with elements from the far left of the table.
WHY?
Ionic BondsThe dot diagram will give you a good idea how the bond will form.
