Atoms and Bonding - Elements and Atoms
The Building Blocks of Matter
Matter may consist of elements, compounds, or mixtures.
Atoms and Bonding - Elements and Atoms
Atomic Theory and Models
Through the first part of the twentieth century, atomic models
continued to change.
Atoms and Bonding - Atoms, Bonding, and the Periodic Table
Valence Electrons and Bonding
The number of valence electrons in an atom of an element
determines many properties of that element, including the
ways in which the atom can bond with other atoms.
Atoms and Bonding - Atoms, Bonding, and the Periodic Table
The Periodic Table
Elements are organized into rows and columns based on
their atomic number.
Atoms and Bonding - Atoms, Bonding, and the Periodic Table
The Periodic Table
As the number of protons (atomic number) increases, the
number of electrons also increases. As a result, the
properties of the elements change in a regular way across a
period.

The Periodic Table
The variety of colors in a “neon” sign
results from passing an electric
current through sealed glass tubes
containing different noble gases.

Building Vocabulary
After you read the section, reread the paragraphs that
contain definitions of Key Terms. Use the information you
have learned to write a definition of each Key Term in your
own words.

Atoms and Bonding - Ionic Bonds
Ions and Ionic Bonds
You and a friend walk past a market that sells apples for 40
cents each and pears for 50 cents each. You have 45 cents
and want an apple. Your friend also has 45 cents but wants a
pear.
Atoms and Bonding - Ionic Bonds
Ions and Ionic Bonds
When an atom loses an electron, it loses a negative charge
and become a positive ion. When an atom gains an electron,
it gains a negative charge and becomes a negative ion.
Atoms and Bonding - Ionic Bonds
Ions and Ionic Bonds
Ions are atoms that have lost or
gained electrons.
Atoms and Bonding - Ionic Bonds
Ions and Ionic Bonds
Ionic bonds form as a result of the attraction between
positive and negative ions.
Atoms and Bonding - Ionic Bonds
Properties of Ionic Compounds
In general, ionic compounds are hard, brittle crystals that
have high melting points. When dissolved in water or melted,
they conduct electricity.

Previewing Visuals
Before you read, preview Figure 17. Then write two
questions that you have about the diagram in a graphic
organizer like the one below. As you read, answer your
questions.
Formation of an Ionic Bond
Q. What is an ionic bond?
A. An ionic bond is the attraction between two oppositely charged ions.
Q. What is the overall charge on an ionic compound?
A. Overall, an ionic compound is electrically neutral.
Atoms and Bonding - Covalent Bonds
How Covalent Bonds Form
The force that holds atoms together in a covalent bond is the
attraction of each atom’s nucleus for the shared pair of
electrons.
Atoms and Bonding - Covalent Bonds
How Covalent Bonds Form
The oxygen atom in water and the nitrogen atom in ammonia
are each surrounded by eight electrons as a result of sharing
electrons with hydrogen atoms.
Atoms and Bonding - Covalent Bonds
How Covalent Bonds Form
An oxygen molecule contains one double bond, while a
carbon dioxide molecule has two double bonds. A nitrogen
molecule contains one triple bond.
Atoms and Bonding - Covalent Bonds
Unequal Sharing of Electrons
Fluorine forms a nonpolar bond with another fluorine atom. In
hydrogen fluoride, fluorine attracts electrons more strongly
than hydrogen does, so the bond formed is polar.
Atoms and Bonding - Covalent Bonds
Unequal Sharing of Electrons
A carbon dioxide molecule is a nonpolar molecule because
of its straight-line shape. In contrast, a water molecule is a
polar molecule because of its bent shape.

Asking Questions
Before you read, preview the red headings. In a graphic
organizer like the one below, ask a what or how question for
each heading. As you read, write answers to your questions.
Question
Answer
How do covalent bonds form?
Covalent bonds form when two
atoms share electrons.
What are molecular
compounds?
Molecular compounds are
compounds that contain
molecules bonded with covalent
bonds.
How does unequal sharing of
electrons affect the atoms in
molecular compounds?
Unequal sharing of electrons
causes the bonded atoms to
have slight electrical charges.
Atoms and Bonding - Bonding in Metals
Metallic Bonding
A metal crystal consists of positively
charged metal ions embedded in a
“sea” of valence electrons.
Atoms and Bonding - Bonding in Metals
Metallic Properties
The “sea of electrons”
model of solid metals
explains their ability to
conduct heat and
electricity, the ease with
which they can be made
to change shape, and
their luster.
