1) Atoms are made up of electrons, protons and neutrons. Electrons occupy electron shells and determine how an atom bonds with other atoms.
2) Ionic bonds form when a metal transfers electrons to a nonmetal, giving them opposing charges. For example, sodium (Na) transfers an electron to chlorine (Cl), forming sodium ion (Na+) and chloride ion (Cl-).
3) Covalent bonds form when atoms share electrons to fill their outer electron shells in a stable configuration.

3. electron shells
a) Atomic number = number of Electrons
b) Electrons vary in the amount of energy
they possess, and they occur at certain
energy levels or electron shells.
a) Electron shells determine how an atom
behaves when it encounters other atoms
4. Electrons are placed in shells
according to rules:
1) The 1st shell can hold up to two electrons,
and each shell thereafter can hold up to 8
electrons.
5. Octet Rule = atoms tend to gain, lose or share electrons so
as to have 8 electrons
C would like to
N would like to
O would like to
Gain 4 electrons
Gain 3 electrons
Gain 2 electrons
6. Why are electrons important?
1) Elements have different electron
configurations
different electron configurations mean
different levels of bonding

11. Formation of Ions from Metals
Ionic compounds result when metals react with
nonmetals
Metals lose electrons to match the number of valence
electrons of their nearest noble gas
Positive ions form when the number of electrons are
less than the number of protons

14. Ions from Nonmetal Ions
In ionic compounds, nonmetals in 15, 16, and 17
gain electrons from metals
Nonmetal add electrons to achieve the octet
arrangement
Nonmetal ionic charge:
3-, 2-, or 1-
16. Ionic Bond
Between atoms of metals and nonmetals
with very different electro negativity
Bond formed by transfer of electrons
Produce charged ions all states. Conductors
and have high melting point.
Examples; NaCl, CaCl2, K2O
18. 1). Ionic bond electron from Na is transferred to Cl,
this causes a charge imbalance in each atom. The Na
becomes (Na+) and the Cl becomes (Cl-), charged
particles or ions.
21. Metallic Bond
Formed between atoms of metallic elements
Electron cloud around atoms
Good conductors at all states, lustrous, very
high melting points
Examples; Na, Fe, Al, Au, Co
23. Metals Form Alloys
Metals do not combine with metals. They form
Alloys which is a solution of a metal in a metal.
Examples are steel, brass, bronze and pewter.
24. Formula Weights
Formula weight is the sum of the atomic
masses.
Example- CO2
Mass, C + O + O
12.011 + 15.994 + 15.994
43.999
25. Practice
Compute the mass of the following compounds
round to nearest tenth & state type of bond:
NaCl;
23 + 35 = 58; Ionic Bond
C2H6;
24 + 6 = 30; Covalent Bond
Na(CO3)2;
23 + 2(12 + 3x16) = 123; Ionic & Covalent
