Ionic Compound Nomenclature and Formulas

Ionic bonds form when one atom completely transfers one or more electrons to another atom, resulting in the formation of ions. Positively charged ions (cations) are strongly attracted to negatively charged ions (anions) by electrical forces. All chemical compounds can be named systematically by following a series of rules. Binary ionic compounds are named by identifying first the positive ion and then the negative ion. Naming compounds with polyatomic ions involves memorizing the names and formulas of the most common ones.

Classify the bonds formed between each pair of elements based on electronegativity values in the following table: (see picture) Keep in mind: Ionic is or more 1.9 Polar is 0.5 to 1.8 Non-polar is 0 to 0.4

Ionic: Be-F, Sc-O Polar: H-Br, S-O, Be-Cl Non-polar: S-I, H-P, P-Se Beryllium, Be, is an element that can form covalent compounds even though it is a metal. BeCl2 is a common example of a metal-nonmetal combination that is covalent rather than ionic in the gas phase, and behaving more like a metalloid in the solid phase. For a P−Se bond, a H−P bond, and a S−I bond, the electronegativity difference is less than 0.4 and so these bonds are essentially nonpolar covalent. Using electronegativity values rather than just position on the periodic table is a more exact method of predicting bond type.

Ionization energy

Ionization energy is another periodic property of the elements. The ionization energy of an atom is the energy required to remove an electron when the element is in a gaseous state. Ionization energies tend to increase from left to right across the row, but they decrease going down a column. The highest ionization energies are thus found in the upper right corner of the periodic table. Some sample ionization energies are shown in the table below.

First Ionization Energy

Ionization energy is the energy required to remove an electron from an atom or ion. First ionization energy refers to the energy required to remove an electron from an electrically neutral atom in the gas phase. Subsequent ionization energies reflect the energies needed to strip successive electrons off an increasingly positively charged ion.

Atomic Radii and Effective Nuclear Charge

The atomic radius of an element can be predicted based on its periodic properties. Atomic radii increase going down a group in the periodic table, because successively larger valence-shell orbitals are occupied by electrons. Atomic radii generally decrease moving from left to right across a period because the effective nuclear charge increases.

Electron Configurations of Ions

When an atom forms an ion, it will gain or lose electrons to attain a more stable electron configuration, frequently that of a noble gas. Nonmetals tend to form anions by gaining electrons, which enter the lowest energy unoccupied orbital. Metals tend to form cations by losing electrons. Main group metals lose electrons in the reverse order of filling. Transition metals, however, lose s electrons first.

The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle

A student is examining a bacterium under the microscope. The E. coli bacterial cell has a mass of m = 1.60 fg (where a femtogram, fg, is 10−15g) and is swimming at a velocity of v = 8.00 μm/s , with an uncertainty in the velocity of 9.00 % . E. coli bacterial cells are around 1 μm ( 10−6 m) in length. The student is supposed to observe the bacterium and make a drawing. However, the student, having just learned about the Heisenberg uncertainty principle in physics class, complains that she cannot make the drawing. She claims that the uncertainty of the bacterium's position is greater than the microscope's viewing field, and the bacterium is thus impossible to locate.

Naming Ionic Compounds

Because the common names of many chemical compounds are not helpful in indicating the chemical nature of the compound (e.g., the common name "table salt" gives no clue that this compound is composed of sodium and chlorine, NaCl), systematic names have been introduced to accurately identify compounds. The naming of simple ionic compounds is relatively straightforward, once you understand the naming system. Ionic compounds are named according to their cation first, followed by their anion. Once the cation is named, the anion is then named. The naming conventions are listed in the tables to the right. Finally, although ionic compounds need to have an overall neutral charge, the number of cations or anions are not mentioned in the formula name. For example, AlCl₃ is aluminum chloride, not aluminum trichloride.

The Rydberg Equation

An astrophysicist working at an observatory is interested in finding clouds of hydrogen in the galaxy. Usually hydrogen is detected by looking for the Balmer series of spectral lines in the visible spectrum. Unfortunately, the instrument that detects hydrogen emission spectra at this particular observatory is not working very well and only detects spectra in the infrared region of electromagnetic radiation. Therefore the astrophysicist decides to check for hydrogen by looking at the Paschen series, which produces spectral lines in the infrared part of the spectrum. The Paschen series describes the wavelengths of light emitted by the decay of electrons from higher orbits to the n=3 level.

In the animation, you can see that the electrons occupy different orbitals according to the energy level of each orbital. A single box represents an orbital. The unpaired electron is represented assingle harpoon upwhereas the paired electrons in the same orbital are represented by two arrows pointing in opposite directions:single harpoon up and single harpoon down. Watch the animation and identify which of the following statements are correct.

The C atom has two unpaired electrons. In the Li atom, the 3s, 3p, and 3d orbitals have different energies. Electrons generally occupy the lowest energy orbital first. The arrangement of the orbitals in a multielectron atom is different from the arrangement in a single-electron atom owing to the electron-electron repulsions in a multielectron atom. In the case of a single-electron atom, the orbitals in a given principal shell have the same energy. However, in the case of a multielectron atom, the orbitals in a given principal shell have different energies. Electrons occupy the lowest energy orbital first. Each orbital can hold a maximum of two electrons of opposite spins. When more than one orbital of equal energy is available, electrons will first occupy these orbitals singly with parallel spins. Thus, the C atom has two unpaired electrons in its 2p subshell. The element that follows C is N. It has three unpaired electrons in the 2p subshell. In the N atom, all the three degenerate 2p orbitals are filled with single-electrons each. Thus, it has attained half-filled orbitals. For the next atom, oxygen, the pairing of electrons will occur. The filling of the electrons in the different orbitals of an atom determines the electron configuration of the atom and indicates the presence or absence of unpaired electrons in the atom.

Emission Line Energy

Give an example of a covalent bond.

Electron Configurations of Atoms and Ions

The electron configuration of an atom tells us how many electrons are in each orbital. For example, helium has two electrons in the 1s orbital. Therefore the electron configuration of He is 1s².

Ionic Radii

The size of ions as measured by ionic radii varies in a systematic manner. The size of the ion can be explained in part by effective nuclear charge, Zeff, which is the net nuclear charge felt by an electron. The effective nuclear charge takes into account the actual nuclear charge and the shielding of this charge by inner electrons. When an atom loses electrons, the resulting cation is smaller both because the remaining electrons experience a larger Zeff and because these electrons are usually in orbitals closer to the nucleus than the electrons that were lost. The more electrons that are lost, the smaller the ion becomes. Similarly, when an atom gains electrons, the resulting anion is larger owing to both increased electron-electron repulsions and a reduction in Zeff. The more electrons that are gained, the larger the ion becomes.

What is the relationship between the ionization energy of a monoanion such as Cl− and the electron affinity of the neutral atom?

This quantities have the same magnitude but opposite sign.

Consider the following element combinations. Classify the bonds formed between each pair as ionic, polar covalent, or nonpolar covalent based solely on each element's position on the periodic table.

Using the elements' positions on the periodic table is only a general tool to predict probable bond type. A more exact prediction of bond type can be made using electronegativity values.

The shielding of electrons gives rise to an effective nuclear charge, Zeff, which explains why boron is larger than oxygen. Estimate the approximate Zeff felt by a valence electron of boron and oxygen, respectively?

+3 and +6 The valence electrons in an oxygen atom are attracted to the nucleus by a positive charge nearly double that of boron. Therefore, the electrons in oxygen are held closer to the nucleus, giving it a smaller radius.

Which of the following factors has no effect on an element's gaining or losing electrons to form an octet?

A low Z eff makes it easy to add electrons to form anions with eight valence-shell electrons.

Ions and the Periodic Table

A main group metal tends to lose electrons, forming a cation with the same number of electrons as the nearest noble gas in the periodic table. A main group nonmetal tends to gain electrons, forming an anion with the same number of electrons as the nearest noble gas. The various groups gain or lose electrons as summarized in the following table:

Electron Configurations of Atoms

An atom consists of a small, positively charged nucleus, surrounded by negatively charged electrons. We organize the electrons in a logical manner. As the atomic number increases, electrons are added to the subshells according to their energy. Lower energy subshells fill before higher energy subshells. The order of filling is 1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3p, 4s, 3d, 4p, 5s, 4d, 5p, 6s, 4f, 5d, 6p, 7s, 5f, 6d, 7p. The periodic table can be used to help you remember the order.

Orbital-Filling Diagrams

An orbital-filling diagram shows the number of electrons in each orbital, which are shown in order of energy. The placement of electrons in orbitals follows a certain set of rules. Lower energy subshells fill before higher energy subshells. The order of filling is 1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3p, 4s, 3d, 4p, 5s, 4d, 5p, 6s, 4f, 5d, 6p, 7s, 5f, 6d, 7p. The periodic table can be used to help you remember this order. An orbital can hold up to two electrons, which must have opposite spins. Hund's rule states that if two or more orbitals with the same energy are available, one electron goes in each until all are half full. The electrons in the half-filled orbitals all have the same value of their spin quantum number.

Why do atomic radii increase going down a group of the periodic table?

Atomic radii increase going down a group because the electron shells are farther away from the nucleus.

Rank the following elements in order of decreasing atomic radius.

Atomic radii increase going down a group, because successively larger valence-shell orbitals are occupied by electrons. For example, rubidium has electrons in the fifth shell, which contains much larger orbitals than the fourth, third, second, or first shells.

Atomic Radius

Atomic radius is one periodic property of the elements. Atoms become smaller from left to right across a row, but they become larger going down a column. The largest atoms are thus found in the bottom left corner of the periodic table.

Subatomic Particles

Atoms are composed of three fundamental particles. Protons are positively charged, neutrons are neutral, and electrons are negatively charged. Protons and neutrons are clustered into a dense core called the nucleus, whereas electrons are found outside of the nucleus at a relatively large distance. Elements differ from one another by how many protons their atoms they contain. The number of protons is called the atomic number (Z) of the element. Since protons and neutrons make up most of the mass of an atom, the sum of the protons and neutrons is its mass number (A). In neutral atoms, the numbers of protons and electrons are equal. In ions, the numbers of electrons and protons are not equal.

For the elements with the electron affinities given in the table in the introduction, which element is most likely to accept an electron?

Br Because bromine is only one electron away from noble-gas configuration, it becomes incredibly stable upon the addition of that one electron. Even though nitrogen also needs to gain electrons to achieve a noble-gas configuration, N− is nowhere near as stable as Br−. Calcium must lose electrons to achieve noble-gas configuration. Therefore, adding an electron to a neutral calcium atom makes it less stable.

Atomic Radii

Each element in the periodic table has a distinctive atomic radius.

Electron affinity is the measure of the attraction of an electron toward an isolated gaseous atom. When an electron is added to an isolated gaseous atom or ion energy is either released or absorbed; this energy change is known as electron affinity. Electron affinity is positive when energy is absorbed, and it is negative when energy is released.

Electron affinity is the energy change that occurs when an electron is added to a gaseous atom or ion. The electron affinity of an O atom is −142 kJ, meaning that when an electron is added to an O atom, energy is released and the O− ion is stable. However, when a second electron is added to an O− ion, energy is required. Since the O− ion is already negatively charged, adding another negatively charged electron is difficult. Thus, the electron affinity of an O− ion is +710 kJ.

Periodic Trends in Relative Electron Affinity

Electron affinity, EA, is the energy required to add an electron to a neutral gaseous atom and is related to an element's position on the periodic table. Electron affinities can be positive, negative, or zero, as shown in the table.

Electron Affinity and Electron Configurations

Electron affinity, Eea, is the change in energy that occurs when an electron is added to a neutral isolated atom. This can be represented by the following equation: X(g)+e−→X−(g) Most electron affinity values are negative because energy is usually released when a neutral atom gains an electron. Eea values become more negative with increasing tendency of the atom to accept an electron and increasing stability of the resulting anion. Eea shows a periodic trend that is related to electron configuration. Elements with less than an octet and with high effective nuclear charge (Zeff) tend to have large negative Eea values. Elements with filled valence shells or subshells and low Zeff tend to have Eea values near zero.

What general trends in electronegativity occur in the periodic table?

Electronegativity increases from left to right across a period and decreases down a group.

Electronegativity

Electronegativity is another periodic property. An atom's electronegativity describes its ability to attract electrons to itself when it is part of a chemical compound. Electronegativity increases diagonally from the lower left to the upper right of the periodic table. Highly electronegative elements (with a chi value of χ≥2.2) are insulating nonmetals, whereas elements with low electronegativity (with χ≤1.8) are conducting metals.

The Photoelectric Effect

Electrons are emitted from the surface of a metal when it's exposed to light. This is called the photoelectric effect. Each metal has a certain threshold frequency of light, below which nothing happens. Right at this threshold frequency, an electron is emitted. Above this frequency, the electron is emitted and the extra energy is transferred to the electron. The equation for this phenomenon is KE=hν−hν0 where KE is the kinetic energy of the emitted electron, h=6.63×10−34J⋅s is Planck's constant, ν is the frequency of the light, and ν0 is the threshold frequency of the metal. Also, since E=hν, the equation can also be written as KE=E−E0 where E is the energy of the light and E0 is the threshold energy of the metal.

En = −1.37×10−19 J

Why is energy usually released when an electron is added to a neutral atom but absorbed when an electron is removed from a neutral atom?

Energy is usually released when electron is added to a neutral atom but absorbed when an electron is removed from a neutral atom because of the positive Zeff.

Naming Binary Molecular Compounds

Molecular compounds are usually composed solely of nonmetals. A binary molecular compound is one in which the compound contains only two elements (regardless of how many atoms are present of each). When naming binary molecular compounds, prefixes are used to specify the number of atoms of each element. Take a moment to review some of the prefixes shown here. For example, SF6 is named sulfur hexafluoride. Note that the prefix mono is not used in naming the first element. Also note that the second element in the name should end with the suffix ide.

Quantum Number Rules

Quantum numbers can be thought of as labels for an electron. Every electron in an atom has a unique set of four quantum numbers. The principal quantum number n corresponds to the shell in which the electron is located. Thus n can therefore be any integer. For example, an electron in the 2p subshell has a principal quantum number of n=2 because 2p is in the second shell. The azimuthal or angular momentum quantum number ℓ corresponds to the subshell in which the electron is located. s subshells are coded as 0, p subshells as 1, d as 2, and f as 3. For example, an electron in the 2p subshell has ℓ=1. As a rule, ℓ can have integer values ranging from 0 to n−1. The magnetic quantum number mℓ corresponds to the orbital in which the electron is located. Instead of 2px, 2py, and 2pz, the three 2p orbitals can be labeled −1, 0, and 1, but not necessarily respectively. As a rule, mℓ can have integer values ranging from −ℓ to +ℓ. The spin quantum number ms corresponds to the spin of the electron in the orbital. A value of 1/2 means an "up" spin, whereas −1/2 means a "down" spin.

What isotope has 14 protons and 14 neutrons?

Silicon has 14 protons in its nucleus. It is the only element that has 14 protons. If it had more or fewer protons, it would not be silicon. However, the number of neutrons can vary, which is why the mass is written in the name.

When you compare the atomic radius of silicon (Si) to that of phosphorus (P), ____.

Silicon is a larger atom than phosphorus because phosphorus has one more proton than silicon, thereby increasing the attraction for all electrons and decreasing the atomic radius.

Anomalous electron configurations

Some atoms, such as some transition metals and some elements in the lanthanide and actinide series, do not adhere strictly to Hund's rule and Pauli's principle. The reason the anomalies are observed is the unusual stability of both half-filled and completely filled subshells. This behavior can be explained with an example of the chromium atom. Using Hund's rule and Pauli's principle, you can write the expected electron configuration of the Cr atom that strictly follows these rules as 1s22s22p63s23p64s23d4 . However, by moving an electron from the 4s orbital to the 3d orbital you obtain a half-filled 3d orbital. This half-filled orbital is more stable than the combination of the filled 4s orbital and the partially filled 3d orbital. Thus, the observed electron configuration of the Cr atom is 1s22s22p63s23p64s13d5.

Which atom in each of the following pairs has a larger radius? V or Ta

Ta

Why does phosphorus have a less-negative electron affinity than its neighbors silicon and sulfur?

The 3p orbitals in P are half-filled. The electron affinity for Si is more negative because the added electron is going into an empty 3p orbital. The electron affinity for S is more negative because of a higher Zeff.

Give an example of an ionic bond.

The bond in LiF (Li+F−) The bond in NaCl (Na+Cl−)

Covalent Compound Formulas

The chemical formula of covalent compounds can be easily determined from the systematic name of the compound. Greek prefixes are used to indicate the number of atoms of each element present in the compound.

What is meant by the term effective nuclear charge, Zeff? What is it due to?

The effective nuclear charge is the net charge actually felt by an electron. The electrons are shielded from the nucleus by the other electrons.

Why does ionization energy increase regularly across the periodic table from group 1A to group 8A, whereas electron affinity increases irregularly from group 1A to group 7A and then falls dramatically for group 8A?

The electron affinity increases irregulary from 1A to 7A and then falls dramatically for Group 8A because the additional electron goes into the next higher shell. Ei1 increases steadily across the periodic table from Group 1A to Group 8A because electrons are being removed from the same shell and Zeff is increasing.

Electron affinity

The electron affinity of atoms is also periodic. The electron affinity of an atom is the energy that is lost or gained when an electron is added to a neutral atom of the element in a gaseous state. A more negative electron affinity is considered a higher electron affinity value. It tends to become more negative going from left to right across a row in the table and less negative going down a column. Electron affinities are not as smoothly periodic as some of the other properties, with some major exceptions opposing the general trends. For example, the group 2 and group 18 elements have positive electron affinities, and each of the row 2 elements B through F are less negative than the elements just below them in the column. In general, however, electron affinities tend to be more negative as you move toward the upper right-hand corner of the periodic table.

Rules for writing electron configuration

The electron configuration of an atom describes how the electrons fill the orbitals within an atom. Two of the rules that explain how electrons fill orbitals are as follows: Hund's rule of maximum multiplicity states that when more than one orbital of equal energy is available, electrons will first occupy these orbitals singly with parallel spins. The pairing of electrons will start only after all the degenerate orbitals are singly occupied or are half-filled. Pauli's exclusion principle states that each orbital can hold a maximum of two electrons of opposite spins. For example, the electron configuration of a C atom with the atomic number 6 is (see picture) Here, a single box represents an orbital, and an electron is represented as a half arrow. Orbitals of equal energy are grouped together. According to Pauli's exclusion principle, each orbital can hold a maximum of two electrons of opposite spins. If you observe the electron configuration of the carbon atom, 1s and 2s orbitals hold two electrons of opposite spins. The fifth and sixth electrons enter the 2p orbital. Because the 2p subshell has three orbitals of equal energy, according to Hund's rule, the fifth and sixth electrons occupy 2p orbitals singly with parallel spins instead of pairing.

The Bohr Equation

The electron from a hydrogen atom drops from an excited state into the ground state. When an electron drops into a lower-energy orbital, energy is released in the form of electromagnetic radiation.

Outer electron configurations

The outer electron configuration of an element includes everything except the noble-gas core. For example, the element C has an electron configuration of [He]2s22p2 and an outer electron configuration of 2s22p2. Similarly, the element Pb has an electron configuration of [Xe]6s24f145d106p2 and an outer electron configuration of 6s24f145d106p2.

Electron Configurations: Rules and Principles

When writing the ground-state electron configuration of a many-electron atom, three main rules must be followed: The aufbau principle: Electrons are added to the lowest energy orbitals available. The Pauli exclusion principle: No two electrons in an atom can have the same set of four quantum numbers (n, ℓ, mℓ, and ms). Hund's rule: For degenerate orbitals, the lowest energy state is attained when the number of electrons with the same spin is maximized. So for a degenerate set of orbitals, one electron goes into each orbital until all the orbitals of the subshell are half-filled. Once all the orbitals of the subshell are half-filled the pairing of electrons can take place. Note that aufbau is the German word for "building up."

Periodic Trends of the Elements

The periodic table is an organized listing of all the known elements. The table displays elements in order of their atomic number and groups them in vertical and horizontal rows that indicate similar properties. Several properties of atoms are periodic, meaning that the trends repeat themselves from row to row. This gives the periodic table its predictive value. In fact, several elements were predicted to exist before they were actually discovered, because there seemed to be gaps when the known elements were first accurately grouped into a periodic table

Relating Quantum Numbers and Electron Configurations to the Periodic Table

The periodic table lists all known elements arranged by atomic number. Atomic number is the nuclear charge, the number of protons in the nucleus of an an atom of a particular element. For a neutral atom, the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons. Each column of the table, called a group, contains elements with the same number of valence electrons that are in different quantum levels. Each row of the table, called a period, contains elements with differing numbers of valence electrons that are in the same principal quantum level. The four main blocks of the table (s, p, d, and f) contain elements whose highest energy electrons have the same azimuthal quantum number (ℓ).

Rank the following elements by electron affinity, from most positive to most negative EA value.

The reason why group 8A elements have a positive EA value is because they are incredibly stable in their neutral form with an octet of electrons in the outermost energy level. They have little tendency to gain an electron. The reason that group 5A elements have an EA value that is less negative than expected is because a half-filled p subshell is particularly stable.

What is the relationship between the electron affinity of a singly charged cation such as Na+ and the ionization energy of the neutral atom?

The relationship between the electron affinity of a univalent cation and ionization energy of the neutral atom is that they have the same magnitude but opposite signs

Arrange the following elements from greatest to least tendency to accept an electron.

The tendency to gain an electron is quantitatively measured by the electron affinity, the amount of energy involved in the addition of an electron to a neutral gaseous atom. Ordering these elements by the electron affinity provides an identical order: F>O>C>Li>Be

The electron configuration can also be represented by writing the symbol for the occupied subshell and adding a superscript to indicate the number of electrons in that subshell. For example, consider a carbon atom having an atomic number of 6. The total number of electrons in a neutral carbon atom is 6. The electron configuration of the carbon atom represented by the orbital diagram is (see picture)

This electron configuration can be written as 1s22s22p2 where 1s, 2s, and 2p are the occupied subshells, and the superscript "2" is the number of electrons in each of these subshells. Use the rules for determining electron configurations to write the electron configuration for Si. 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p²

Properties of Waves

To understand electromagnetic radiation and be able to perform calculations involving wavelength, frequency, and energy. Several properties are used to define waves. Every wave has a wavelength, which is the distance from peak to peak or trough to trough. Wavelength, typically given the symbol λ (lowercase Greek "lambda"), is usually measured in meters. Every wave also has a frequency, which is the number of wavelengths that pass a certain point during a given period of time. Frequency, given the symbol ν (lowercase Greek "nu"), is usually measured in inverse seconds (s−1). Hertz (Hz), another unit of frequency, is equivalent to inverse seconds. The product of wavelength and frequency is the speed in meters per second (m/s). For light waves, the speed is constant. The speed of light is symbolized by the letter c and is always equal to 2.998×108 m/s in a vacuum; that is, c=λν=2.998×108m/s Another term for "light" is electromagnetic radiation, which encompasses not only visible light but also gamma rays, X-rays, UV rays, infrared rays, microwaves, and radio waves. As you could probably guess, these different kinds of radiation are associated with different energy regimes. Gamma rays have the greatest energy, whereas radio waves have the least energy. The energy (measured in joules) of a photon for a particular kind of light wave is equal to its frequency times a constant called Planck's constant, symbolized h: Ephoton=hν where h=6.626×10−34J⋅s These two equations can be combined to give an equation that relates energy to wavelength: E=hcλ

How would the dx2−y2 orbital in the n=5 shell compare to the dx2−y2 orbital in the n=3 subshell? The contour of the orbital would extend further out along the x and y axes. The value of ℓ would increase by 2. The radial probability function would include two more nodes. The orientation of the orbital would be rotated 45∘ along the xy plane. The mℓ value would be the same.

True: A, C, E False: B, D The following representation of this orbital, 5dx2−y2, depicted when it is bisected by the xy plane, shows the effect of the radial nodes on the orbital contours.

Two of the types of ultraviolet light, UVA and UVB, are both components of sunlight. Their wavelengths range from 320 to 400 nm for UVA and from 290 to 320 nm for UVB. Compare the energy of microwaves, UVA, and UVB.

UVB radiation causes sunburn whereas UVA radiation does not. However, UVA, which causes tanning, is thought to be even more dangerous. The precise wavelengths of ultraviolet light that contribute to the formation of skin cancers still need to be determined by scientists.

Which atom in each of the following pairs has a larger radius? V or Zn

V

Covalent, Polar Covalent, and Ionic Bonds

When two bonded atoms attract electrons with equal strength, the result is a nonpolar covalent bond. A polar covalent bond is one in which the electrons are unequally shared between the atoms. An ionic bond results when the sharing is so unequal that fully charged ions form. Electronegativity difference can be used to predict bond type. One method to classify bonds based on this difference can be described as follows. If the electronegativities differ by less than 0.4 units, the bond can be classified as nonpolar covalent. If the difference is between 0.4 and 2.0 units, the bond is classified as polar covalent, and if the difference is more than 2.0 units, the bond is substantially ionic. If you are not given electronegativity values, you can still predict the bond type using the periodic table. Metals have low electronegativity compared to nonmetals. So in general, we can predict that any metal-nonmetal combination will be ionic and any nonmetal-nonmetal combination will be covalent. If electronegativity values aren't given, you should assume that a covalent bond is polar unless it is between two atoms of the same element.
