How Atoms Form Molecules


Atoms combine to complete the outermost shell Valence: Number of missing or extra electrons in the outermost shell The # electrons in the valence affects the behavior of the atom The atom is stable when the valence is full The atom is unstable/reactive when the valence is incomplete

Copyright 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

Chemical Bonds
Join atoms by valence electrons Atoms tend to Gain, Lose, or Share electrons to fill their valence Types of chemical bonds:
Ionic Covalent Hydrogen

Copyright 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

Ionic Bonds
Transfer of electrons from one atom to another Atoms that gain electrons have net negative charge Atoms that lose electrons have net positive charge Ion: Atom with a net charge Ionic Bond: Attraction between oppositely charged ions.
