Science 10: 4.1 Atomic Theory and Bonding

Text: Chapter 4, pages 168-183

Part A: The Atomic Theory

-Subatomic particles make-up atoms, which in turn combine to form elements and compounds.

-

The

table below outlines the various subatomic particles that make up an atom.

-Where does most of an atom’s mass exist? __________________________________

-What makes up most of an atom’s volume? _________________________________

-What makes neutral atoms different from electrically charged atoms (ions)?

_____________________________________________________________________

-Differentiate between an element and compound.

Part B: The Nucleus

-What determines the electrical charge of an atom’s nucleus?

_________________________________________________________________

_________________________________________________________________

-In a neutral atom, what can the Atomic Number also reveal about the atom’s subatomic particles?

_________________________________________________________________

-Do like charges (+ and + or – and -) attract? If no, then how an atom’s nucleus held together?

_________________________________________________________________

-Examine a periodic table. What is the nuclear charge of Oxygen?

_________________________________________________________________

Part C: Organization of the Periodic Table

Science 10: Chemistry 4.1 Page 3

-The periodic table of elements is organized in several ways. What can you observe?

a) Atomic Number: Elements are listed by their number of protons from left to right.

b) Element Type: There are three types of elements in the periodic table.

i) Metals: On the left

ii) Non-metals: On the right

iii) Metalloids: Staircase on the right

c) Periods: Horizontal row.

d) Group/Family: Vertical column. Elements with the same chemical properties and bond with other elements in similar ways.

i) Group 1: Alkali Metals. Highly reactive metals. (Sodium)

ii) Group 2: Alkaline Earth Metals. Somewhat reactive metals. (Calcium)

iii) Group 3: Halogens. Very reactive non-metals. (Chlorine)

iv) Group 4: Noble Gases. Unreactive gaseous non-metals. (Helium)

e) Transitional Metals: Elements from group 3 through 12.

Part D: Periodic Table and Ion Formation

Science 10: Chemistry 4.1 Page 4

-Examine the Aluminum atom right. What happens to its electrical charge when 3 e are lost?

_____________________________________________

_____________________________________________

-Ions are atoms that have lost or gained e to become electrically charged.

-Cations are metal atoms that have lost e to become positively charged. (Remember, Cats have Paws!)

-Multi-valent metals can form ions by losing more than one combination of e (see Iron right). Examine the periodic table and identify some multi-valent metals.

-Anions are non-metals that gain e. How would this affect their electrical charge?

-Examine the diagram below. Identify the metal and non-metal.

Part E: Bohr Diagrams

-The arrangement of e in an atom determines how elements behave during chemical change and what compounds are likely to be produced.

-Bohr Diagrams reveal how many electrons are in each shell surrounding the atom’s nucleus.

Science 10: Chemistry 4.1 Page 5

-Examine the Bohr Diagrams below. What do you notice about the e arrangement?

_____________________________________________________________________________________

-Think about the shells as being 3-D spheres and not 2-D circles.

-Remember:

a) The # of p = ___________________________________

b) # of n = ______________________________________

-Draw Bohr Models for an Aluminum atom and ion using the information in the table below.

Science 10: Chemistry 4.1 Page 6

Part F: Patterns of Electron Arrangement in Periods

-Examine the image right. What type of patterns do you notice in the arrangements of elements on the periodic table and the Bohr models?

-The arrangement of 8 e in the outermost shell is called the Stable Octet. An element with this arrangement does not easily engage in chemical reactions (Noble gases).

Part G: Forming Compounds

-The valence e of two atoms can interact if they are close enough together to produce a compound if the new arrangement is stable.

-Stable chemical bonds have lower energy states (interacting atoms have the same arrangement of valence e).

-What are three ways that e can interact?

-Does the NaCl compound have a stable chemical bond?

_____________________________________________________________________________________

2. Covalent Bonding

-Examine the diagram right. How does a covalent bond form?

________________________________________________________

________________________________________________________

-Valence e are divided into:

a) Bonding Pair: Involved in the covalent bond.

b) Lone Pair: Not used in bonding.

-Differentiate between a covalent compound and a covalent molecule.

_____________________________________________________________________________________

_____________________________________________________________________________________

-In the diagrams below label the bonding pair and lone pair and distinguish between covalent compounds and covalent molecules.

Part H: Lewis Diagrams

-Compare the Bohr Model and Lewis Diagrams for the same element below. What is the difference between the two representations?

-Lewis Diagrams require dots to be placed in cardinal directions (E, N, W, S) and to be paired only after the fifth e is reached.

-Complete the Lewis Diagrams for F and Na.

1. Lewis Diagrams and Ion Rules

-Positive ions, like Na, have one e removed for each positive charge.

-Negative ions, like Cl, have one e added for each negative charge.

-Draw your own Lewis diagram for the following ionic compounds:

a) MgO b) BaBr2

2. Lewis Diagrams and Covalent Compounds and Molecules

-Shared e are drawn as a straight line.

-Draw your own Lewis diagrams for the following covalent molecules.

a) H20 b) NH3 c) CH4
