For ionic bonding the particles are...
oppositelycharged ions.
For covalent bonding the particles are...
atoms which sharepairs of electrons
For metallic bonding the particles are...
atoms which sharedelocalisedelectrons.
When does ionic bonding occur
formed from metalscombined with non-metals
Covalent bonding occurs in
most non-metallic elements and in compounds of non-metals
Metallic bonding occurs in
elements and alloys.
Description of what happens during ionic bonding
When a metal atom reacts with a non-metal atom electrons in the outer shell of the metal atom are transferred. Metal atoms lose electrons to become positively charged ions. Non-metal atoms gain electrons to become negatively charged ions. The ions produced by metals in Groups 1 and 2 and by non-metals in Groups 6 and 7 have the electronic structure of a noble gas (Group 0).

giant ionic description
An ionic compound is a giant structure of ions. Ionic compounds are held together by strong electrostatic forces of attraction between oppositely charged ions. These forces act in all directions in the lattice, that is in a regular arrangement.
what happens when a metal and non metal react (ionic)
electrons are transferred from the outer shell of the metal to the non metal, metals become positive ions and non metals become negative ions
what charged ions do
group 1 atoms

limitations of using dot and cross diagrams
oversimplified
limitations and pros of using ball and stick diagrams
CON:
the ions are actually close together, gives false image of bond direction
PRO:
regular pattern and ion arrangement and extends further
limitations and pros of using two and three-dimensional diagrams
CON:
difficult to see the arrangement of ions- only outer layer
PRO:
relative sizes of atoms and regular pattern

properties of giant ionic structures
regular structure (giant ionic lattice)
high melting/boiling points,
do not conduct electricity when solid,
do conduct electricity when molten
form crystals with flat faces and straight edges
why do ionic stuctures have a giant ionic lattice?
strong electrostatic forces of attraction in all directions between oppositely charged ions
why do giant ionic structures have high melting/boiling points?
it takes a large amount of large of energy to break the many strong ionic bonds in the lattice
why do giant ionic structures not conduct electricity when solid?
the ions are in fixed positions and cannot flow to carry charge through the structure
why do giant ionic structures conduct electricity when molten?
the ions are free to move so charge can flow from place to place
why do giant ionic structures form crystals with flat faces and straight edges?
the ions are arranged in a highly ordered way in the 3D lattice
how do you work out emperical formula when there is a dot and cross diagram
count up how many atoms there are of each element, write this down and that is the empirical formulae
how to work out empirical formulae with 3D diagram
what ions are in the compound, work out what charges the ions will form, balance the charges of the ions so that the overall charge on the compound is zero
Covalently bonded substances may consist of
small molecules, large molecules, such as polymers and can have giant covalent structures,
such as diamond and silicon dioxide

small covalent bonding structure description
A molecule is formed when a group of atoms are joined together by a shared pair of electrons called covalent bonds. Small molecules contain only a few atoms held together by strong covalent bonds. The intermolecular forces are weak, but as the small molecule gets bigger the weak forces between molecules increase.
small covalent properties
usually gases or liquids at room temp, do not conduct electricity, form crystals
why are small covalent usually gases or liquids at room temp
they have low melting/boiling points, because not much energy is needed to overcome their weak intermolecular forces
