Covalent Bonds

• Are very strong

• Draw Lewis structures for F2, O2, N2

• Which bond is stronger?

Bond Strength

• Depends on (a) Bond length = distance between

the bonds(b) Number of bonds (no. of shared

e)

Polar Covalent Bond

• Electrons not shared equally

• One end of the bond is slightly more negative, and the other end is slightly more positive.

3 Types of Chemical Bond

Examples

• Determine the type of chemical bond for the following using differences in electronegativities (absolute value)

(a) NaCl(b) CH4

(c) F2

Answer

Predict Formula of Covalent Compounds

Criss-cross Valence

Examples

• (a) P and Cl• (b) B and O• (c) C and S• (d) P and O

Shape and Behaviour of Molecules

Lewis structures can be used to help visualize molecules in 3 dimensions.

Since all electrons carry the same charge, it is reasonable to assume that electron pairs in bonds and lone pairs will be oriented in a molecule as far away from each other as possible.

Valence Shell Electron Repulsion Theory (VSEPR)

Draw Lewis Structures for each example and correspond to the VSEPR shapes.
