Chemical Bonding

Dr
...

Bonding is the joining of two atoms in a stable
arrangement
...


Bonding is a favorable process because it always leads
to lowered energy and increased stability
...
Solomon Derese

64

One general rule governs the bonding process:

SCH 102

Through bonding, atoms attain a complete
outer shell of valence electrons
...

...
This would make it like the
noble gas helium at the end of the same row
...

...

There are two different kinds of bonding:
1
...
Covalent bonding
...

Covalent bonds result from the sharing of electrons
between two nuclei
...
Solomon Derese

SCH 102

A chemical bond is the net result of attractive and
repulsive electrostatic forces
...
Three types
of interaction occur, one attractive and two repulsive
force
...

Dr
...

An ionic bond generally occurs when elements on the
far left side of the periodic table combine with
elements on the far right side, ignoring the noble
gases, which form bonds only rarely
...

A positively charged cation formed from the element
on the left side attracts a negatively charged anion
formed from the element on the right side
...

• The element sodium, located in group 1A of the
periodic table, has just one valence electron in its
third shell
...

• The element chlorine, located in group 7A of the
periodic table, has seven valence electrons
...

• Thus, Sodium chloride is a stable ionic compound

...

Carbon is central to the study of organic chemistry
and has four electrons in its valence shell
