(Ionic & Covalent Bonding, Nomenclature, Lewis Structures, VSEPR)
1. Ionic Bonding
● Definition: Electrostatic attraction between cations (+) and anions (–).
● Cations: Formed by losing electrons.
○ Group 1 → +1, Group 2 → +2 (ex: Ca²⁺).
○ Group 13 → +3 (ex: Al³⁺).
○ Transition metals → variable charges (Fe²⁺, Fe³⁺).
● Anions: Formed by gaining electrons (O²⁻, Cl⁻).
● Properties: Crystalline, brittle, high melting/boiling points, conduct electricity only when
dissolved or molten.
2. Covalent Bonding
● Definition: Sharing of electrons between nonmetals.
● Pure (nonpolar): Equal sharing (H₂, Cl₂).
● Polar: Unequal sharing → partial charges (HCl).
● Electronegativity: Increases left → right, decreases top → bottom.
○ F = most electronegative (4.0).
● Bond type by ΔEN:
