TRANSCRIPT

2) Chemical structures or structural formulas are a graphical description of bond length and bond angle.

4) Atoms form bonds so that there is a stable electron configuration.

•positive ions are called cations, negatively charged ions are called anions

•Form networks of ions, NOT molecules•When melted or dissolved in water ionic compounds conduct electricity

8) Polyatomic ions: •Groups of covalently bonded atoms that have a charge so they act like an ion•Denoted by parentheses in a formula•Many polyatomic ions contain oxygen •Amount of oxygen is used to determine the name – •more oxygen uses “-ate”, less oxygen uses “-ite”• example: NO3 = nitrate NO2 = nitrite

Determine if the following would have ionic or covalent bonds. Explain your reasoning.

Magnesium Oxide MgO

Strontium Chloride SrCl2

Ozone O2

Methanol CH2OH

Compound Names and Formulas: 1) Ionic compounds are named for their elements•The cation is identified by the element name•The anion is identified by an altered element

name

•Example: NaCl = sodium chloride• Ionic compounds have a charge of zero, so

oxidation numbers must be balanced

Write formulas for the following ionic compounds:

Lithium oxide

Beryllium chloride Titanium (III) nitride

Organic and Biochemical Compounds1) Organic compounds contain carbon and are covalently bonded.•Carbon atoms form up to FOUR covalent bonds •Compounds of just hydrogen and carbon are hydrocarbons

3) Biochemical compounds include carbohydrates, proteins, and DNA
