Chemical Bonding
provides the energy necessary to hold
different atoms together as part of a
chemical compound.
It is a mutual electrical attraction
between the nuclei (protons) of one
atom and the valence electrons of
another atom that binds the atom
together.
Different Properties of
Chemical Bonding
1. Bond Length
Is the distance between the nucleus of 2
atoms forming the bond.
It is more correctly known as equilibrium bond
length.
Follows the expected trend that bonds
between larger atoms are longer and bonds
between small atoms are shorter.
Activity1: Determine whether the bond is long or
short.
1. HCl
2. HF
3. NaCl
4. CaO
5. LiF
2. Bond Energy
Is the amount of energy involved when
a bond is broken.
Is the amount released when a bond is
formed.
Unlike the bond length, the shorter the
bond therefore the stronger the bond
and the longer the bond the weaker
the bond is.
Activity 2: Determine whether the bond is strong
or weak.
6. BeO
7. HBr
8. NaF
9. KI
10. HF
3. Bond Order
Is the number of chemical bonds.
It gives an indication of the stability of the
bond.
is also defined as half the difference
between the number of bonding electrons
and the number of antibonding electrons
Activity 3: Compute for the bond order.
1. C2H4
2. C2H2
Different Types of
Chemical Bonding
1. Ionic Bonding
2. Covalent Bonding
3. Metallic Bonding
