HYDRATION

At the surface of the ionic lattice, where it is in contact with the water, the (+) and (-) dipoles of the water molecule are attracted to the oppositely charged ions in the lattice structure. These ions break off from the lattice and are surrounded by water molecules. Process = hydration

POLARITY OF WATER AND SOLUBILITY OF IONIC COMPOUNDS

At the surface of the ionic lattice, where it is in contact with the water, the (+) and (-) dipoles of the water molecule are attracted to the oppositely charged ions in the lattice structure. These ions break off from the lattice and are surrounded by water molecules. This process is known as HYDRATION. When this happens, the solid dissolves.

HOW DO ATOMS BECOME ANIONS

Atoms can gain electrons, which means they have more electrons than protons, giving them an overall negative charge

FORMULA: CARBONATE

CO₃²⁻

ELECTRICAL CONDUCTIVITY OF IONIC COMPOUNDS

Can't conduct electricity when solid as ions are in fixed positions in lattice structure But when an ionic compound is molten (melted) or dissolved, the ions are free to move and carry an electric current

FORMULA OF CALCIUM ION

Ca²⁺

FORMULA: CHLORATE

ClO₃⁻

WHAT DOES MELTING POINT OF AN IONIC COMPOUND DEPEND ON?

Depends on the ionic charge and the ionic radius of its component ions The greater the charge on ion and the smaller its ionic radius, the greater the attraction between the oppositely charged ions. Therefore, the higher the melting point

OVERVIEW OF GENERAL PROPERTIES OF IONIC SOLIDS: EXPLANATION: SOLUBILITY IN WATER

In order for an ionic bond to form between two elements, elements with an electronegativity difference of approximately 1.8 units and greater

IONIC BONDING

Involves the transfer of one or more electrons from the outer shell of one atom to the outer shell of another atom The transfer of these electrons results in the formation of positive and negative ions

WHAT TYPE OF BONDING OCCURS BETWEEN A POLYATOMIC ION AND ANOTHER ION

Ionic bonding (Even though bonds in polyatomic atoms are covalent)

WHAT IS THE CRITERIA OF AN ELEMENT IN ORDER FOR AN IONIC BOND TO FORM?

Ionic bonds are formed by elements with an electronegativity difference of approximately 1.8 units and greater

WRITING THE FORMULAE OF IONIC COMPOUNDS: CHARGES

Ionic compounds are electrically neutral. Therefore, when writing the formula for an ionic compound, the charges on the oppositely charged ions must cancel out to leave the compound with no overall charge

MELTING AND BOILING POINT OF IONIC COMPOUNDS

Ionic compounds are held together by the electrostatic attractions between the oppositely charged ions. The strong attraction between the ions results in ionic compounds having relatively high melting and boiling points. This means that relatively large amounts of energy are required to break these forces of attraction between the ions.

4.1 ESSENTIAL IDEA

Ionic compounds consist of ions held together in a lattice structure by ionic bonds

BRITTLENESS OF IONIC COMPOUNDS

Ionic compounds tend to shatter when a force is applied; they are said to be brittle. They fracture across a plane when the layers of ions become incorrectly aligned

OVERVIEW OF GENERAL PROPERTIES OF IONIC SOLIDS: EXPLANATION: HIGH MP'S AND BP'S

Ions are attracted to each other by strong electrostatic attractions. Large amounts of energy are needed to separate them.

POLYATOMIC IONS

Ions that consist of more than one atom The atoms that make up the polyatomic ion are bonded by covalent bonds

WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING IONIC COMPOUNDS WOULD YOU EXPECT TO HAVE THE HIGHEST MELTING POINT? LiF KF RbF NaF

LiF (smallest ionic radius)

SOLUBILITY OF IONIC COMPOUNDS

Many (but not all) dissolve in water Property depends on whether the forces of attraction between the water molecules and the ions in the lattice structure are strong enough to overcome the attractions between the ions themselves

IONIC COMPOUNDS: SODIUM AND CHLORIDE

Na electron configuration: 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s¹ Due to low ionisation energy, Na loses its 1 valence electron to form 1+ ion (Na⁺) (cation) Cl electron configuration: 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁵ By gainin 1 electron, it achieves an electron configuration of a noble gas (Cl⁻) (anion) The oppositely charged ions are attracted to one another, resulting in the formation of an ionic bond

WHAT IS IONIC BONDING DESCRIBED AS BEING...

Non-directional as the force of attraction occurs in all directions around the individual ions

SOLUBILITY: WHAT CANNOT DISRUPT THE LATTICE STRUCTURE OF IONIC COMPOUNDS IN THE SAME WAY?

Non-polar solvents cannot disrupt the lattice structure in the same way, therefore the solubility of ionic substances in solvents such as hexane and propanone is limited.

WHAT IS SOLUBLE IN NON-POLAR SOLVENTS

Non-polar substances

FORMULA OF NITRIDE ION

OCTET RULE

States that atoms are more stable with the electron configuration of a noble gas reflects observation that atoms of main-group elements tend to combine in such a way that each atom has eight electrons in its valence shell, giving it the same electron configuration as a noble gas

FORMULA OF SULPHIDE ION

S²⁻

COORDINATION NUMBER OF NACL

The Na ion in the centre is in contact with 6 chloride ions so the coordination number of the sodium is 6 Alternatively if Cl was in the centre then the Cl would be in contact with 6 other Na ions and therefore have a coordination number of 6 Therefore, sodium chloride is described as being 6:6 coordinated

WHAT IS AN IONIC BOND?

The electrostatic attraction between the positive and negative ions

The presence of mobile ions

COORDINATION NUMBER

The total number of points of attachment to the central element

POLARITY OF WATER MOLECULES

They are polar due to the difference in electronegativity between oxygen and hydrogen

WHEN AND WHY DO IONIC COMPOUNDS FRACTURE/ BREAK

They fracture across a plane when the layers of ions become incorrectly aligned This occurs because the movement of the ions within the lattice when the force is applied places ions of the same charge next to each other. The forces of repulsion between ions of the same charge cause the lattice structure to split and fracture.

VOLATILITY OF IONIC COMPOUNDS

They have low volatility because of the strong forces of attraction between the ions in the lattice structure

HOW DO ATOMS BECOME CATIONS
