2020-2021 Objectives of Chemical Bonding
General Understanding of When Atoms Come Together
1) Be able to identify an element as metal, non-metal or semi-metals from its location on the Periodic Table.
2) Be able to explain what a covalent bond is, what elements would create one, the name of the most common compound you get from this bond and the base unit(s) (or particle).
3) Be able to explain what a "ionic bond" (does not really exist) is, what elements would create one, the name of the compound you get from this "bond", and the base unit(s) (or particle).
4) Be able to explain what a "metallic bond" is, what elements would create one and the main components of the metallic bond.
5) Be able to tell if there is a covalent bond, "ionic bond" or metallic bond between two elements.

Metallic Bond
Covalent Bonding - General Information
Covalent Bonding - Lewis Dot Structures
5. Write Lewis Dot Structures for Elements and all species that contain covalent bonds (molecular cpds or polyatomic ions). This includes resonance structures and central atoms that can exceeding the Rule of Eight conditions.
Covalent Bonding - VSPER (Molecular Geometry)
10. Need to be able to determine which of three type of bonds (single, double and triple bond) has the longest/shortest bond length and/or bond energy and reason why.<b>( 2019-2020 Honors student NEED TO Know)
