What are compounds?
Two or more elements
chemically combined to
form new substances.
What are compounds?
Chemical Bonds
– the attractive forces that hold
different atoms or ions
together
Bonds distinguish compounds
from mixtures.

Parts to the Formulas
Coefficient – gives the
amount of molecules or
moles
Subscript – tells the
number of atoms or ions
Chemical Structure
Bond length
-the distance between two
bonded atoms
Bond angle
-the angle formed between
two bonded atoms
Models of compounds
Ball and stick model
-atoms are represented balls,
bonds are represented by sticks.

Why Bond?
Atoms bond so they can
become stable!
They want to achieve a
full outer energy level
They want 8 electrons.
1. Ionic bond
A bond formed by the attraction
between oppositely charge ions.
The joining of a positive metal
ion and a negative nonmetal ion

Na
+
Cl
NaCl
Ionic bond
Formed by transferring electrons
Now each ion will have 8 valence
electrons

Na

Cl
NaCl
Ionic bond Properties
They form network structures
high melting points
Good conductors of electricity
when dissolved or melted
because of their ions
Metallic bond
Formed by the attraction
between positively charged
metal ions and the electrons
around them.
Metallic bond
Held together by free
flowing electrons
Hold metallic elements
together
Covalent Bonds
Formed when atoms share
one or more valence
electrons
Formed between non-metals
May form single, double, or
triple bonds
Covalent Properties
They are poor conductors
of electricity (no ions)
Low melting points.
form molecules
Polyatomic ion
An ion made of two or more atoms
that are covalently bonded and that
act like a single ion.
A molecule with a charge
-2
Examples: carbonate (CO3)
Nitrate (NO3)-1

Compound Names
and Formulas

REMEMBER!!!!!!!!
If it starts with metal it is an ionic
compound
If it starts with a nonmetal it is a
covalent compound
If the formula contains a parentheses
(polyatomic ion) it contains both ionic
and covalent bonds
If it is just a metal it is metallic

Naming Ionic Compounds
Step one – Name the first
ion in the formula
Ex. CaCl2 – calcium
Na2(SO4) - sodium
Naming Ionic Compounds
Step two – Name the
second ion
Ex. CaCl2 –Calcium Chloride
Na2(SO4)-sodium sulfate
PROBLEM
Ex. Fe2O3 and FeO are different
compounds from different ions
Fe3+ O2- = Fe2O3
2+
Fe
2O
= FeO
Solution-Roman Numerals
Same naming scheme
Add a Roman Numeral to
identify the charge of the
metal ion.
Solution-Roman Numerals
Fe2O3 = iron(III)Oxide
FeO = iron(II)Oxide
Remember!!!
R.N. is the charge, not
the subscript of the metal.
Naming Covalent Compounds
Mono – 1
Di - 2
Tri - 3
Tetra - 4
Penta - 5
Hexa – 6
Hepta - 7
Octa - 8
Nona - 9
Deca - 10
Naming Covalent Compounds
Step 1
Identify the number of
atoms in the first element
Ex. H2O two H atoms
Naming Covalent
Compounds
Step 2
Identify the number of
nd
atoms in the 2 element.
Ex. H2O one O atom
Naming Covalent
Compounds
Step 3
Name the compound with
the appropriate prefixes.
Ex. H2O
dihydrogen monoxygen
Naming Covalent
Compounds
Step 4 add an -ide ending
to the second element
Ex.
Dihydrogen monoxide
Empirical Formula
The simplest chemical formula
of a compound.
Different covalent compounds
can have same empirical formula
