6 Chemical bonding: a) Lewis structure
• Chemical bonds decide on material properties
• Consider only valence electrons
• Lewis symbol: valence electrons represented by dots

e. g. : Cl . → :Cl―Cl

6 Chemical bonding: c) covalent bond
molecular orbitals:
from s-orbitals: from p-orbitals: s s*

6 Chemical bonding: c) covalent bond
Energy: MO-diagram:
H₂ N₂ O₂
H―H Cl―Cl O―
―O* N――N
single bond double bond triple bond
• the more bonds, the stronger the bond and the shorter bond distance
N―N 147 pm
N―
―N 124 pm
N――N 110 pm
• approach:
count electrons, first single bonds, fulfill octet rule, if necessary multiple
bonds
6 Chemical bonding: c) covalent bond
• Lewis structure – examples
6 Chemical bonding: c) covalent bond
• polar bond: different elements have different electronegativities (EN)
(Ch. 7)
the higher EN, the stronger attraction of electrons
→ partial charges, described by dipole moment
m=Sqr
6 Chemische Bindung: c) Kovalent
6 Chemical bonding: c) covalent bond
• formal charge: consider valence electrons of element with number of
electrons in compound
CO₂: CN⁻:
element: 6 4 6 4 5
in Lewis structures
formal charges should be
compound: 6 4 6 5 5 at minimum!
→ no formal charge -1 0
6 Chemical bonding: c) covalent bond
• resonance structures:
multiple ‘correct‘ Lewis structures (s. NO₃⁻), no unique assignment of
electrons
experimentally proven by distance measurements
