Ionic-Covalent Worksheet

This document discusses ionic and covalent bonding. Ionic bonding occurs when a metal transfers electrons to a nonmetal, such as sodium donating an electron to chlorine. Covalent bonding occurs when two nonmetals share electrons through covalent bonds, such as two hydrogen atoms sharing an electron pair to form an H2 molecule. The document provides examples of Lewis dot diagrams and molecular formulas to illustrate ionic and covalent bonding combinations.

IONIC BONDING
lonic bonding occurs when a metal transfers one or more electrons to a nonmetal in an
effort to attain a stable octet of electrons. For example, the transfer of an electron
from sodium to chlorine can be depicted by a Lewis dot diagram.

Calcium would need two chlorine atoms to get rid of its two valence electrons.

Show the transfer of electrons in the following combinations.

1.K + F

2. Mg + 1 (MgIz)

3. Be + S

4.Na + O (Na2O)

5.Al + Br (AlBr3)

COVALENT BONDING Name

Covalent bonding occurs when two or more nonmetals share electrons, attempting to
attain a stable octet of electrons at least part of the time. For example:

Note that hydrogen


H· is content with 2,
not 8,electrons.

Show how covalent bonding occurs in each of the following pairs of atoms, Atoms
may share one, two or three pairs of electrons.

.H+H(H)

2. F + F(F)

3. O+ O(O,)

4.N+N(Nz)

5. C + O(CO,

6.H+○(H₂O)
