Chemistry Notes
Section 7
...
■ All of the elements within each group behave similarly because they
have the same number of valence electrons
...
● Usually the only electrons used in chemical bonds
...
○ Octet Rule: In forming compounds, atoms tend to achieve the electron
configuration of a noble gas
■ An octet is a set of 8
■ Looks like ns2 np6
○ Atoms of metals tend to lose their valence electrons, leaving a complete octet in
the next-lowest energy level
...
■ The most common cations are those produced by the loss of valence
electrons from metal atoms
...
■ Some ions formed by transition metals do not have a noble-gas electron
configuration and are exceptions to the octet rule
...
● Ex: Mg2+
● Formation of Anions
○ Anion: atom or group of atoms with a negative charge
...
■ Anions names of elements change to end in -ide
...
● Ex: Cl-
○ Halide Ions: ions that are produced when atoms of chlorine and other halogens
gain electrons
...
■ All Halide Ions: F-, Cl-, Br-, and I-
Section 7
...
■ Usually composed of metal cations and nonmetal anions,
■ Although they are composed of ions, ionic compounds are electrically
neutral
...
○ Formula Units
■ Chemists represent the composition of substances by writing chemical
formulas
● Chemical Formula: shows the kinds and numbers of atoms in the
smallest representative unit of a substance
○ Ex: NaCl
■ Because an ionic compound exists as a collection of positively and
negatively charged ions arranged in repeating patterns, its chemical
formula refers to a ratio known as a formula unit
...
■ The component ions in such crystals are arranged in repeating 3D
patterns
...
○ Coordination Number: the number of ions in opposite charge that surround the
ion in a crystal
...
Section 7
...
○ The valence electrons of metal atoms can be modeled as a sea of electrons
...
■ Metallic Bonds: consist of the attraction of the free-floating valence
electrons for the positively charged metal ions
...
■ The sea of electron model can explain many physical properties of
metals:
● Good conductors of electrical current because electrons can flow
freely in them
...
A
sea of drifting valence electrons insulates the metal
cations from one another
...
In
contrast, ionic crystals struck with hammers tend to push
positive ions together; therefore, they repel and the
crystal shatters
...
■ They are arranged in very compact and orderly patterns
...
○ Body-Centered Cubic
■ Every atom has eight neighbors
■ The elements sodium, potassium, iron, chromium, and tungsten
crystallize in this pattern
...
● Alloys
○ Most of the metals you encounter are alloys
...
● Ex: Brass- alloy of copper and zinc
■ Alloys are important because their properties often are superior to those
of their component elements
...
5% silver and 7
...
○ Alloys can form their component atoms in different ways
...
● This is called a substitutional alloy
...
● This is called an interstitial alloy
...
