    This study guide provides answers to questions about bonding concepts, ionic bonds and nomenclature, covalent bonds and nomenclature, and identifying compounds as ionic or covalent. It defines oxidation numbers, cations, anions, and describes Lewis structures. It explains that ionic bonds form between metals and nonmetals through electron transfer, and covalent bonds form between nonmetals through electron sharing. Prefixes are used in covalent compound names to indicate the number of atoms. Compounds can be identified as ionic or covalent based on their constituent elements.

    Bonding Concepts:
    1234-

    5-

    What is an oxidation number? The number electrons needed to be gained or lost to make the atom stable. (follows the
    octet rule)
    What is being used to create the bonds? Valence Electrons
    What are cations and anions? Cations= ions with a positive charge. Anions= ions with a positive charge
    Draw the following Lewis structures: CO, CH4, NO3-, SO2, H2S

    Describe the following as linear, trigonal planar, tetrahedral, pyramidal, or bent: O 2=linear , SiO2=linear, BF3=trigonal
    planar, CaH2=linear

    Ionic Bonds and Nomenclature


    12-

    What is a binary compound? A compound with 2 elements


    What are ionic bonds? (What kind of elements and what happens to the electrons?) A bond between a metal and a nonmetal where the electrons are transferred. There is a net charge of zero because the cation and anion charges cancel out.
    3- When do we use Roman numerals in the name? When there is a transition metal with more than one possible charge
    that could make the element stable.
    4- What is the proper name for LiCl? Lithium chloride
    5- What is the charge on a Mg ion in its ionic compound? Mg2+
    6- What does K+ represent? A potassium ion
    7- What is the symbol for a rubidium ion? Rb+
    8- What is the correct name for an Al3+ species? Aluminum ion
    9- What are the formulas for the following: aluminum chloride = AlCl3, sodium bromide = NaBr, carbon monoxide = CO?
    10- The electron configuration for Na1+ would be identical to which element? Neon
    Covalent Bonds and Nomenclature
    1.
    2.
    3.
    4.
    5.
    6.
    7.
    8.

    What are covalent bonds? (What kind of elements and what happens to the electrons?) Bonds between two nonmetals where the electrons are shared.
    What the prefixes for 1-10? 1-mono, 2-di, 3-tri, 4-tetra, 5-penta, 6-hexa, 7-hepta, 8-octa, 9-nona, 10-deca
    How do we use the prefixes for covalent bonds? The prefixes tell us how many atoms we have of each element
    (we dont use mono for the first element)
    What is the names for the following: SO =sulfur monoxide, S3O, =Trisulfur monoxide SO3 =Sulfur trioxide
    What is the formula for the following: potassium iodide = KI, dihydrogen monoxide =H2O (hehe), triphosphorous
    chloride =P3Cl?
    What is the formula for sodium chlorite? NaClO2
    What is the compound formed from the polyatomic ions NH4+ and PO43-? (NH4)3PO4
    Explain single, double, and triple bonds. What are they and when do they happen? Single bonds=share 1 pair of
    electrons. Double bonds=share two pairs of electrons. Triple Bonds= share 3 pair of electrons. (The Lewis dot for
    CO should have had a triple bond. The Lewis dot for SO2 should have had a double bond.) They are used when
    atoms can share more than one set of electrons.making them more stable.

    Ionic or Covalent?
    Are the following Ionic or covalent?
    12345-

    N2O Covalent
    Al2O3 Ionic
    Na2S Ionic
    BF3 Covalent
    H2O2 Covalent
