4.1 Atomic Theory & Bonding4.1 Atomic Theory & Bonding
ATOMATOM:: smallest particle of an element, has a neutral charge. smallest particle of an element, has a neutral charge.PEN = proton(s) + electron(s) + neutron(s)PEN = proton(s) + electron(s) + neutron(s)
ELEMENTELEMENT:: made up of 1 type of atom (eg.oxygen O) made up of 1 type of atom (eg.oxygen O)IONS:IONS: atoms with charges (eg. oxygen is O atoms with charges (eg. oxygen is O2-2-))MOLECULES: MOLECULES: groups of covalently bonded atoms (eg. oxygen oxygen
molecules are Omolecules are O22))
COMPOUNDS:COMPOUNDS: are made up of at least 2 atoms bonded are made up of at least 2 atoms bonded together.together.

Numbers to Remember :Numbers to Remember :
Protons Protons = Atomic Number= Atomic Number
NeutronsNeutrons = Mass number – Atomic number (Mass = Mass number – Atomic number (Mass # - proton #).# - proton #).
Neutrons + Protons = Mass #Neutrons + Protons = Mass #
Electrons in an atomElectrons in an atom = atomic number (also = atomic number (also proton #)proton #)
Electrons in an ionElectrons in an ion = atomic number – ion charge = atomic number – ion charge

Periodic Table & Ion Formation:Periodic Table & Ion Formation:
Ions: Ions: Atoms that gain and lose electrons to become oms that gain and lose electrons to become stable (full valence shells).stable (full valence shells). 1. Cations: 1. Cations: metals that lose electrons & form metals that lose electrons & form
positive ions (Napositive ions (Na++)) Multivalent:Multivalent: Some metals can have more than Some metals can have more than
one charge (Feone charge (Fe2+2+ or Fe or Fe3+3+).). 2. Anions:2. Anions: Non-metals gain electrons & form Non-metals gain electrons & form
negative ions (Onegative ions (O-2-2))
Bohr Diagrams:Bohr Diagrams:
Bohr diagrams show how many electrons Bohr diagrams show how many electrons appear in each electron shell around an appear in each electron shell around an atom. (2, 8, 8, 18, 18)atom. (2, 8, 8, 18, 18) Valence electrons:Valence electrons: electrons in the outermost electrons in the outermost
shell ONLY.shell ONLY. If the valence shell is full = stableIf the valence shell is full = stable If the valence shell is not full = reactiveIf the valence shell is not full = reactive
What element is this?
Bohr Diagrams
•It has 2 + 8 + 8 = 18 electrons, and therefore 18 protons
•It has 8 electrons in the outer (valence) shell

Ionic Bonds:Ionic Bonds: Formed between Metals (cations) & non-metals (anions).Formed between Metals (cations) & non-metals (anions). Valence electrons are transferred from metal to nonmetal.Valence electrons are transferred from metal to nonmetal.
