Day 1 - Ionic Bonding and Octet Rule - Notes and Information
You will need a worksheet on ionization and electron configuration. Use the graphics from the powerpoint to answer the following.

Salts are compounds made of ions.  One ion is almost always a metal. 

Which has the larger size, a sodium atom or a sodium ion?

How does a sodium atom differ from a sodium ion?
How are the sodium atom and sodium ions alike?
What is significant about the electron configuration of the sodium ion?
Now lets look at chlorine...

How many electrons are in the highest energy level?
How does this electron configuration relate to that of a noble gas?
How can chlorine gain stability?
What charge would an anion of chlorine have?
How many protons are in an ion chlorine?
How does the size of chlorine atom compare to the size of its ion?
Now lets make it salt by sending the lone 3s electron from sodium on its way.  It is easily joined to chlorine to compete its outer p orbital. 

Note:  When we get to the d orbitals, this is not always the case (complete s and p), but you have seen the most reactive elements are from the main block of the periodic table and the OCTET rule does hold for these s and p electrons from those elements. 

Octet Rule: main block elements form bonds by giving or accepting electrons so that each atom has as full s (2electrons) and p (6 electrons) sublevel in the outermost energy level.

With a sodium cation and a chlorine anion, the opposite charges create an attraction, just as do magnets and other charged particles. 

The force of attraction between oppositly charged ions is an ionic bond.

In most ionic compounds this attraction is between more than a pair of particles- it involves many, creating a crystalin shape.  In the crystal of NaCl, the force of attraction is 1.7 times stronger than for just two ions alone because each sodium ion has room to attract six chloride ions, and vice versa.

All salts have an ordered packing arrangement that differs based on ion size and forces of attraction – that’s the CRYSTAL.

Because there is the extra strength due not only to the bond but from the crystal structures as well salts have some unique properties.
  • Ionic compounds have high melting and boiling points.
  • Some even decompose (break apart taking back their electrons) before boiling.
  • Salts are hard and brittle. 

What do brittle substances do when broken apart?

 Homework

Reading handout and questions, along with remaining questions from class worksheet.

Worksheet answers may be posted - if not posted, will be passe dout in class

Video and Reading

Please pay close attention to the video as it give great graphic illustration to the concepts discussed on Monday, along with more information.

Your reading handout is very informative and should be a great source for understanding of concepts we will cover in this unit.

Please read, highlight, take notes on that reading.From the video - what should your learn? You will need to take notes on the following topics and questions:

  1. What are three types of bonding?
  2. Name at least four properties of ionic compounds.
  3. Be able to explain why ionic compounds have the properties you listed above in terms of compound structure.
  4. What type of elements do you expect to find in ionic compounds?
Energy

You can expect a 5-10 question daily quiz on material from Day 1, the video, the reading handout and the text reading.

Then we will look at energy related to ionic bonding via a power point and some questions.

Great general information http://www.chemfiesta.com/

You will have to navigate the site

click on Mr. Guch Explains, then Ionic compounds.

A good resource link

In your notes your should find:

  1. What is stability?
  2. What is lattice energy?
  3. How do other energies play a role in ionic bonding (IE, AE, vaporization and others)?
  4. How to read a Born Haber Diagram.
Polyatomic Ions
Please see the class handout and have your flash cards ready List of polyatomic ions to learn
Try this site to learn more about them

 

Nomenclature

We will begin learning how to name ionic compounds and write formulas from names.

If you have not learned the symbols and polyatomic formulas, don't expect to be able to learn this skill. If you do know these

- this should be pretty easy with practice! :-)

Try this quiz http://www.glencoe.com/qe/science.php?qi=523
Percent composition
Look at these example problems and try the extra practice - answers provided
This site has you calculate and check your answer on line, but no examples

Working backwards - use the percent composition information to determine emperical formulas
