Electron-Dot Notation How does the interaction between nuclei & valence electrons affect how atoms interact together?
Electron-Dot Notation • Valence electrons are responsible for chemical bonding. • Group 1: Alkali metals have 1 valence electron • Group 2: Alkali-earth metals have 2 valence electrons • Electron-Dot Notation: • It only shows the valence electrons of an atom, which are indicated by dots placed around the element’s symbol.
X Electron-Dot Notation • Write the symbol • Put one dot for each valence electron. • Don’t pair up the e- unless you have to.
Electron Dot Notation: Nitrogen • Nitrogen has 5 valence electrons. • First we write the symbol. N • Then add 1 electron at a time to each side, until they are forced to pair up.
Write the electron dot notation for…Remember:# Valence Electron = # electrons on outermost ring (last ring) • Na • Mg • C • O • F • Ne • He Na 1s22s22p63s1 Mg 1s22s22p63s2 C 1s22s22p2 O 1s22s22p4 F 1s22s22p5 Ne 1s22s22p6 He 1s2
Electron-Dot Notation: Cations • Metals (L side of the Periodic Table) tend to lose electrons to attain greatest stability (8 valence electrons – Octet Rule). • This results in forming positive ions, cations. Example: Na 1s22s22p63s1 - 1 valence electron Na+ 1s22s22p6 – 8 valence electrons
20 Ca 40.078 Electron Dot Notation for Cations • Elements that have few valence electrons will tend to lose them, forming positive ions: cations. Calcium: 20 e- Ca2+: 18 e- 1s22s22p63s23p64s2 1s22s22p63s23p6 Ca2+ Ca
Electron Configurations for Anions • Nonmetals (R of the periodic table) tend to gain electrons to attain stability • This results in forming negative ions, anions. Sulfur • S 1s22s22p63s23p4 - 6 valence electrons • S2- 1s22s22p63s23p6– 8 valence electrons S2- S
Elements down a group have similar charges. • Group 1 (Alkali) elements produce 1+ ions • Group 2 (Alkali-earth)elements produce 2+ ions • Group 13 elements produce 3+ ions
Group 14 elements produce 4- ions • Group 15 elements produce 3- ions • Group 16 elements produce 2- ions • Group 17 (Halogens) elements produce 1- ions • Group 18 (noble gases) elements (STABLE!) – do not produce ions
Ionic Bonding • Ionic Compounds: Composed of a cation and an anion that are bonded together • Ionic compounds are called salts.
Properties of Ionic Compounds: Crystal Lattice • Ionic Compounds consists of positive and negative ions held together by ionic bonds. • They are ordered in a rigid structure, called a crystal lattice. • Crystal Lattice: a repeating arrangement of ions in the solid. • Ionic compounds have high melting points - because of strong forces between ions • It requires a lot of energy to melt an ionic compound

Ionic Bonding • Ionic Bonding: Formed when atoms completely give up electrons to other atoms, transferring of electrons.. • To achieve stability 8 valence electrons.
- + Ionic Bonding • Example: Sodium & Chloride • Sodium: Group 1, 1 valence electron • Chloride, Group 17, 7 valence electrons • Sodium will give up its 1 valence electron so that it can achieve stability, meanwhile chlorine gains 1 to achieve stability • Mutual Benefits! transfer of electron Na Cl NaCl

Calcium gives up two valence electrons – one to each fluorine atom.
Chemical Formulas • Chemical Formulas indicate the number of atoms of each kind in a compound. CaCl2 • Binary Compound: Two Types of atoms Calcium Chloride 2 Chloride atoms 1 Calcium atom “Chlorine” becomes ‘Chloride” when it gains electrons Cations always come first
Formulating Binary Ionic Compounds: Criss-Cross Rule Steps 1. Write out names with space Calcium Chloride 2. Write symbols & charge of elements 3. criss-cross charges as subscripts, drop the + and - signs 2+ Ca Cl 1- 4. combine into formula (“1” is never shown) Ca Cl 1 2 CaCl2
Criss-Cross Rule: Aluminum Oxide Note: The name of the cation is given first, then the anion. Step 1: Aluminum Oxide Step 2: Al3+ O2- Step 3: Al O 2 3 Step 4: Al2O3
Criss-Cross Rule: Magnesium Oxide Step 1: Magnesium Oxide Step 2: Mg2+ O2- Step 3: Mg O 2 2 Step 4: Mg2O2 Step 5 MgO (Reduce to lowest terms) :

Polyatomic Ions • Ionic bonding can occur with polyatomic ions, because sometimes, a cation or an anion can be a polyatomic ion…which is - • A charged group of atoms, resulting from an excess of electrons ( - ) or a shortage of electrons (+) • Stays together, functions as a unit

Rules of Naming Ionic Compounds • The name of cations do not change. Examples: Sodium, Na+ Hydrogen, H+ • The ending of monatomic anions change to –ide. Examples: Chlorine Chloride, Cl- Nitrogen Nitride, N3- • The name of polyatomic ions do not change. Examples: Bromate, BrO3-Carbonate, CO32-
Rules of Naming Ionic Compounds • Some cations have multiple charges. These are represented by roman numerals. • This system of naming is called the Stock system. Examples: Lead (IV): Pb4+ Lead (II): Pb2+ Lead(IV) oxide vs. Lead (II) oxide Pb4+ O2- Pb2+ O2- Pb2O4 Pb2O2 PbO2 PbO We must use the Stock system to distinguish which lead we are referring to.
