The Mole
Recall that 1 mole is defined as 6.022 x 1023 units of a given substance.
1 mol of electrons = 6.022 x 1023 electrons

A molecular formula represents the actual number of atoms or moles of each element in a compound.
Examples: H2O, C3H5O, C6H12O6
Slide 17 / 163
Calculating an Empirical Formula
To find an empirical formula:
1. Determine the moles of each element within the compound then.....
Compound "X" consists of 1.2 g C, 0.2 g H, and 1.6 g O
= 0.1 mol C, 0.2 mol H, and 0.1 mol O
2. Find the whole number ratio of these moles by dividing by smallest mole value!
0.1 mol C = 1 C 0.2 mol H = 2 H 0.1 mol O = 1 O
0.1 mol 0.1 mol 0.1 mol
Empirical formula = CH2O
Slide 18 / 163
Calculating a Molecular Formula
Determining the molecular formula of a compound is easy once the empirical formula and the molecular weight of the compound
are known.
1. Determine the ratio of the molecular weight to the empirical formula weight.
MW of Compound "X" = 60 u
Empirical formula weight of CH2O = 30 u
Ratio = 60/30 = 2/1.
The molecule is twice as heavy as the empirical formula.
2. Multiply each subscript of empirical formula by the ratio determined in step 1
CH2O x 2 = C2H4O2 = Molecular Formula

Metals & Alloys
Return to Tableof Contents
Slide 39 / 163
Introduction to Chemical Bonds
There are three basic types of bonds: metallic, ionic, and covalent.
A chemical bond is an attraction between atoms to form a compound that contain two or more atoms. The bond forms due to the electrostatic attraction between opposite charges.
Slide 40 / 163
Sea of ElectronsRecall that metallic atoms lose electrons easily. In a metallic compound, valence electrons become delocalized.
Instead of orbiting their specific nuclei, the electrons flow freely in a "sea of electrons" between the positively charged nuclei.
Slide 41 / 163
Properties of MetalsThe free flow of electrons and strong electrostatic force between metallic atoms give metals some unique properties:
· They are good conductors of heat and electricity
· They have typically have high melting points
· They are shiny, malleable and ductile
· They are readily alloyed (able to form mixtures with other elements)

Slide 42 / 163
Conduction
Metals are good conductors of both heat and electricity because the electrons are delocalized and relatively free to move.
Slide 43 / 163
Melting Point
Metals have a wide range of melting points but due to high Coulombic attraction between the sea of electrons and the metallic nuclei, these melting points are typically high.
Metal Melting Point (oC)
Aluminum 660
Copper 1084
Lead 327.5
Magnesium 650
Phosphorus 44
Potassium 63.3
Platium 1770
Silver 961

Compound/Type MP (oC)
CH4/molecule -182
H2O/molecule 0
diamond/covalent network solid 3550
NaCl/ionic compound 801
RbBr/ionic compound 682
Slide 44 / 163
Structural PropertiesMetals are malleable (able to be flatten into sheets) and ductile (able to be pulled into wires) because deforming the solid does not change the environment surrounding the metallic nuclei. The low electronegativity of these atoms allow the electrons to move in response to the change.
Metals are shiny because the free flowing electrons are excited by interaction with photons, causing the electrons to vibrate and reflect the light.
Slide 45 / 163

Slide 48 / 163
AlloysAn alloy is a mixture of two or more metals, or a metal and another element.
There exists three main variants of alloys:
· Heterogeneous alloys· Intermetallic alloys· Homogeneous/ Metal solution alloys
Slide 49 / 163
Heterogeneous AlloysHeterogeneous alloys lack a regular crystal structure throughout the solid.
Solder (50% Pb and 50% Sn), used in fusing together different metal work pieces, is an example of a heterogeneous alloy.
Slide 50 / 163
Intermetallic Alloys
Intermetallic alloys:· Have definite proportions of constituent elements· Have a crystal structure that is different from any of the
constituent metals· Result in solids with properties often different from
constituent metals
Examples: MgZn2
Na5Zn21
Cu3Zn
Slide 51 / 163
Homogeneous Alloys
There are two types of homogeneous alloys: substitutional alloys and interstitial alloys.
Homogeneous alloys are alloys with the same crystal lattice structure as one of the constituent elements.
Slide 52 / 163
Substitutional Alloys
Substitutional alloys consist of atoms of similar sizes. The atoms of the base metal are replaced by atoms of the added element in the matrix.
Examples:
· Brass - copper and zinc
· Bronze - copper and tin
Slide 53 / 163
Interstitial Alloys
Alloys containing more than 2 elements can be a combination of these types of alloys.
Example: Stainless steel - iron, carbon, nickel and chromium
Interstitial alloys occur when the added element is much smaller than the base metal. The smaller atoms occupy spaces between the base metal atoms in the crystal matrix.
Example: Steel - iron and carbon
Slide 54 / 163

C interstitial/substitutional
D any of the above
Slide 57 / 163
AlloysMetals must be molten in order to be alloyed. Although this requires a large energy input, the resulting alloy has enhanced properties compared to its base metal(s).
Alloys are created to increase strength and reduce malleability (ex. steel and brass) or resist corrosion (ex. stainless steel and sterling silver).
Note that the electrical and thermal conductivity of alloys is usually lower than that of its base metal.

Overall energy change = -505 kJ/mol
Notice that breaking bonds is endothermic (requires energy input) while making bonds is exothermic (releases energy)
Ionic bonding occurs in a series of steps, most of which require energy but occur because they are coupled to the highly exothermic formation of the bond.

Covalent Compounds
Return to Tableof Contents
Slide 76 / 163
Types of Covalent Compounds
There are two types of compounds created by the covalent bonding of atoms:
Molecules - smaller compounds of a one or more elements bonded together, such as water (H2O) or oxygen gas (O2)
Covalent networks - larger compounds consisting of repeating elemental or molecular units all covalently bonded together, such as diamond (Cn) or quartz [(SiO2)n]
Slide 77 / 163
Properties of Covalent Network CompoundsLike ionic and metallic substances, covalent network solids are giant molecules with many strong electrostatic attractions. This gives them some unique properties:
· Non-conductive - because they are made of non-metallic atoms, covalent network solids conduct little or no electricity
· Hardness - because all atoms in the structure are bonded together, these materials tend to be very hard
· High melting points - covalent bonds are strong and covalent networks have many bonds giving them high melting points
Slide 78 / 163
Diamond vs. GraphiteDiamond and graphite are examples of covalent network solids composed of a single element, carbon. They are allotropes - different molecules made of the same element.
In graphite only 3 covalent bonds are formed, creating 2-dimensional sheets of carbon atoms. The fourth electron wanders freely over the surface of the sheet, allowing graphite to be somewhat conductive.
Graphite is soft because the 2-D sheets are held together by weak intermolecular forces; very little force is required to break these interactions.
Carbon atoms have 4 valence electrons. In diamonds, 4 covalent bonds are formed creating a very strong 3-dimensional shape.
Slide 79 / 163
SiliconSilicon is a covalent network solid and a semiconductor. Semiconductors allow us to control the flow of electricity through a circuit and provide the basis for modern electronics.
Silicon form a 3-dimensional crystalline structure similar to diamond.
It is a good thermal conductor and its ability to conduct electricity increases with temperature.
Slide 80 / 163
DopingImpurities are introduced to silicon to alter its conductive behavior; this is referred to as doping.
When an element with more valence electrons, such as phosphorus or arsenic, is added to silicon the additional electrons increase the semiconductor's electron carrier concentration. This makes the silicon an n-type (negative charge carrying) semiconductor.
When an element with less valence electrons, such as boron or aluminum, is added to silicon the element accepts electrons from the silicon. This makes the silicon a p-type (positive charge carrying) semiconductor.
Slide 81 / 163
38 Diamonds are harder than graphite because...
A they are made from different elements
B they form different numbers of bonds

Slide 84 / 163
Properties of Molecular CompoundsSince these substances are made up of lots of small molecules they behave differently than covalent network compounds.
· Non-conductive - because they are made of non-metallic atoms molecular compounds are excellent insulators
· Low melting points - molecules are small and held together by weak intermolecular forces (not bonds), these are easy to break giving molecular solids low melting and boiling points.

Slide 88 / 163
Chemical BondsHow ionic or covalent a bond is depends on the difference in electronegativity. The smaller the difference, the more likely electrons are "shared" and the bond is considered covalent, the greater the difference, the more likely electrons have been transferred and the atoms are ionized resulting in an ionic bond.

Increasing Covalent Character
Slide 89 / 163
Chemical BondsWhile bond character (between ionic and covalent) is a spectrum, we can make a few simplifications...
· Ionic bonds occur when the difference in electronegativity between two atoms is 1.7 or greater.
Na ---- F electronegativity = 3
· If the difference of electronegativity is less than 1.7, it is a covalent bond. Neither atom takes electrons from the other; they share electrons. This type of bonding typically takes place between two non-metals.
H ---- Cl electronegativity = 1.1

Covalent Bond Formation
Non-polar covalent bond
H-HThere is no difference in electronegativity so the
electrons are shared equally.
Polar covalent bond
H-Cl partially -partially +
There is a significant difference in electronegativity between the atoms (3.2 - 2.1) so the bond is polar, meaning opposite
charges develop across the bond
The electronegativity difference between the atoms involved determines how equally the electrons are shared.

Covalent Bond Strength
Effect of Atomic Radii
Smaller atoms result in smaller distances between charges thereby increasing the Coulombic attractions
Bond Atomic Radii Bond EnthalpyH-H H = 53 pm 436 kJ/molCl-Cl Cl = 79 pm 243 kJ/mol
The strength of a covalent bond is influenced by the radii of the atoms, the polarity of the bond, and by the # of electron pairs being shared.
Slide 98 / 163
Covalent Bond StrengthEffect of Polarity
The more polar the bond, the stronger the Coulombic attractions
Bond EN difference Bond EnthalpyH-Cl 0.9 431 kJ/mol
H-S 0.5 344 kJ/mol
Note: The sizes are not a constant in this comparison, however, the projected enthalpy of an H-Cl bond would be the average of an H-H and a Cl-Cl bond or 340 kJ/mol. The observed enthalpy is much higher and is explained by the polarity of the bond.
Slide 99 / 163
Covalent Bond StrengthEffect of Multiple Shared Pairs
Atoms often share more than one pair of electrons to realize a full valence shell. As we will learn later, these pairs do not all form the same kind of bonds but the net effect is to increase the Coulombic attractions between the nuclei.

Note: The C=C is longer than the H-H bond despite having the higher bond enthalpy due to the increased radii of the C atoms over the H atoms in the H-H bond.
The length of a covalent bond is influenced by enthalpy of the bond.

Lewis Structures
Guidelines for writing Lewis structures
Guideline One: Determine the ordering of atoms in the molecule
A proper Lewis structure distributes the valence electrons in the molecule so each atom has a full valence shell.
Typically, the least electronegative atom is the central atom.

But not always... often it's the less abundant atom

Lewis StructuresGuidelines for writing Lewis structures
Guideline Two: Determine the number of valence electrons in the molecule
NH3 = 8 CCl3H = 26
If the molecules is an ion, one must either subtract or add electrons to the valence electron count.
NO3- = 23 +1 = 24 NH4
+ = 9-1 = 8
Slide 109 / 163
Lewis StructuresGuidelines for writing Lewis structures
Guideline Three: Form a single bond (2 shared electrons) between all elements and then distribute electrons such that all atoms have a full valence shell, saving the central
atom for last.
Example: H2O (8 ve)
Example: CO2 (16 ve)
H - O - H
O - C - O
Notice H needs only 2 electrons for a full valence shell.
Notice that C does not have a full valence shell and therefore
adjustments will need to be made to this structure
Slide 110 / 163
Lewis Structures: Octet Rule
H = 2 Be = 4 B = 6
In addition, elements in period 3 or below can have expanded octets or more than 8 valence electrons.
The "Octet Rule" refers to the fact that a full valence shell for most elements is a full outer s and p orbital or 8 electrons. Some elements do not follow this as shown below.
Slide 111 / 163
Lewis StructuresGuidelines for writing Lewis structures
Guideline Four: If an atom is short of an octet, additional electrons must be shared between the nuclei forming pi
bonds.

O C O
Pi bonds
Note: Pi bonds are formed from valence electrons in "p" orbitals.

Formal ChargeThe formal charge tells us how the electrons are distributed within a molecule. For example, depending on how the electrons are shared, some atoms may have more electrons than others resulting in a semi-charged state for that atom.
O
P
O
O OFC for P: 5 - 4= +1 (count each bond as one)FC for each O: 6 -7= -1 (count each bond as one)
Note: The charges must add to the charge of the molecule. So for PO43-
1 P atom x +1 = +1 + 4 O atoms x -1 = -4 +1 + -4 = -3
Formal Charge = # of valence electrons - # of electrons atom possesses within the lewis structure.
Slide 145 / 163
Formal Charge
The best Lewis structure will have the formal charge = 0 on each atom. However, if the molecule carries a charge, the more electronegative atoms should carry a charge as they have the greater attraction for electrons.
Each bond is counted as one in a formal charge calculation as each atom forming part of the bond contributes just one electron to that bond.
[ O - H ]-1 FC on O = 6-7 = -1 FC on H = 1-1 = 0
O H
The oxygen is more electronegative so it makes sense that it carries the negative charge.

Hybridization
Carbon is known in nature to form compounds in which it must form 4 bonds.
However, it's electron configuration suggests it could only share 2 electrons resulting in just 2 bonds.
[Ne] __ ___ ___ ___2s 2p
If the s and p orbitals were hybridized, four degenerate orbitals would be formed each with an electron that could be shared.
[Ne] __ __ __ __ (sp3 hybrid orbitals)
In order to explain observations in molecular bonding, it has been proposed that atoms will hybridize s and p orbitals to create new orbitals of equal energy which are then involved in bonding.
