Bonding
Atomic Stability



Atoms combine when the compound formed id
more stable than the separate atoms.
The only group that seldom forms compounds
is the noble gases (group 18). This is true
because compounds of these atoms are almost
always less stable than the original atom.
Atoms with a partially stable outer energy level
can lose, gain, or share electrons to obtain a
stable outer energy level.
Chemical Bond



When atoms gain, lose, or share electrons, an
attraction forms between the atoms, pulling
them together to form a compound.
This attraction is called a chemical bond.
Chemical Bond- is the force that holds atoms
together in a compound.
Ionic Bonding

A transfer of electrons takes place.
One atoms gives electrons and the other takes.
 Elements of different kinds usually form ionic
bonds, Ex. Metals bonding with nonmetals.

Covalent Bonding

A bond between atoms that share electrons.

Usually formed between atoms of the same kind.
Ex. Metals bonding with metals.

Write down 10 different bonds that could
happen.
5 Ionic bonds
 5 covalent bonds
You must tell me which kind they are.
Work by your self.
