Topic: Octet bonding theory

	Chemical bond - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The type of strong bond depends on the difference in electronegativity and the distribution of the electron orbital paths available to the atoms that are bonded.
		Coordinate covalent bonding is a special type of bonding, in which the covalent bonding electrons originate solely from one of the atoms, but are approximately equally shared by both in a molecular type bonding orbital.
		The Banana bond is a kind of bonding in which the bond bends, often due to the presence of an influencing atom in the middle of another covalent bond.

	Chemical Bonding
		The type of bonding that occurs when a nonmetal accepts an electron from a metal is referred to as ionic bonding and the bond is called an ionic bond.
		Bond strength is defined as the amount of energy needed to homolytically break a bond (each of the nuclei takes one of the two electrons from the bond).
		In Molecular Orbital Theory, bonding is explained in terms of the mathematical combination of atomic orbitals to form molecular orbitals.

	Complex
		Because of this, simple octet bonding theory fails in the case of complexes and to understand the chemistry of these systems, a deeper understanding of chemical bonding rules is necessary.
		Crystal field theory[?], introduced by Hans Bethe in 1929, is a more quantum mechanically based attempt at understanding complexes.
		Ligand field theory[?], introduced in 1935 and built from molecular orbital theory, can handle a broader range of complexes and can explain complexes in which the interactions are covalent.

		Since electrons fill from lowest (bonding) energy level to highest, the odd and unpaired electron will be in an orbital that has the character of the less electronegative atom.
		Thus, regardless of whether Lewis theory or molecular orbital theory is used, the odd electron is associated with the less electronegative atom.
		Valence bond theory predicts that atomic orbitals hybridize (mix to become all the same) when part of a molecule.

		The bond length is the distance between the centers of the nuclei involved in the bond, the length depends on the nature of the atoms being joined
		The bond energy is the amount of energy necessary to break one mole of covalent bonds into isolated gaseous species, it is sometimes called the bond dissociation energy or bond enthalpy.
		As the exact bond energy of a given bond varies somewhat with the species that are linked to the other side of the central atom, average bond energies are often quoted.

	Chemical bonding: covalent bond
		The octet rule applies quite well to the first full row of the periodic table (Li through F), but beyond this it is generally applicable only to the non-transition elements, and even in many of these it cannot explain many of the bonding patterns that are observed.
		Bond length measurements are entirely consistent with this interpretation; they are almost exactly halfway between the values found in compounds known to contain single and double bonds.
		The details of this bonding arrangement are discussed in the section on the hybrid orbital model of bonding.

	Bonding (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Ionic bonds are found between a metallic atom, which tends to lose electrons, and a nonmetallic atom, which tends to gain electrons.
		There are two complementary theories to account for this kind of bonding, valence bond theory and molecular orbital theory.
		The valence bond theory was originally formulated by G.

	Molecular Orbital Theory (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		The goal of molecular orbital theory is to describe molecules in a similar way to how we describe atoms, that is, in terms of orbitals, orbital diagrams, and electron configurations.
		The bond between the carbon and oxygen in carbon monoxide is very strong despite what looks like a strange and perhaps unstable Lewis Structure.
		We predict the nitrogen monoxide molecule to be unstable according to the Lewis approach to bonding.

	bonding
		Two hydrogen atoms each with one electron in the 1s orbital come together and at bonding distance the repulsive forces of the negatively charged electrons are overcome by attractive forces to give a sigma bond in which electron density is linear between the nuclei.
		A simpler shorthand representation of the bonding in a hydrogen molecule is shown by a Lewis dot structure.
		Line bond representation is an even more abbreviated notation using a line to designate a single bond consisting of two electrons.

	Covalent Compounds
		Using the Wave Theory, the covalent bond involves an overlap of the electron clouds from each atom.
		In covalent bonding, the two electrons shared by the atoms are attracted to the nucleus of both atoms.
		The "octet" for hydrogen is only 2 electrons since the nearest rare gas is He.

	Lewis Octet Theory
		Thus the atoms, in bonding together to form a molecule, are approaching the stability of the noble (or inert) gases.
		If the bond order is 2 greater than that for formal charge of zero, the formal charge is +2, etc. If the bond order is 1 less than for zero, the formal charge is -1, and so on.
		Another way to determine the formal charge is to assign one electron form each bond to the atom, count the total electrons including unshared pairs, and compare this with the number of electrons in the neutral atom.

	CHEMICAL BONDING CHAPTER 12
		The octet rule states that atoms bond is such a way so that each atom acquires eight electrons in its outer shell.
		Metal atoms are closely packed, and in most cases, the outmost electron shell of one metal atom overlaps with a large number of neighboring atoms, and as a result, the valence electrons move freely form one atom to another.
		In the 1950s, a simple theory was proposed to explain the shapes of molecules.

	Chemical Bonding
		In the molecular orbital approach, the basic premise is that when atoms get close enough to bond, their atomic orbitals reshape themselves and become a set of molecular orbitals that no longer belong to any one atom but are orbitals for the entire molecular domain.
		Such molecular orbitals are called "bonding molecular orbitals" and are the first orbitals occupied by the available electrons within the molecule.
		The MO theory does not need resonance structures to describe molecules, as well as being able to predict bond length and energy.

	Unit Outline (template)
		A single bond is a covalent bond in which a pair of electrons is shared between two atoms.
		VSPER theory is used to predict the shapes of molecules based on the fact that electron pairs strongly repel each other and tend to be orientated as for apart as possible.
		Hybridization theory is used to predict the shapes of molecules based on the fact that orbitals within an atom can mix to form orbitals of equal energy.

	chembook.co.uk: CHEMISTRY IN PERSPECTIVE FOR BORED AND CONFUSED SENIOR SCOOL STUDENTS
		Bonding between elements widely separated in the periodic table: Elements towards the left of the table and towards the bottom will tend to be the (least electronegative and) the most electropositive.
		Covalent vs. metallic bonding: This is most relelvant to the case of pure elements and is well illustrated by changes down group IV (section 17.2.1) and group VII (section 16.2.1.) and by changes across the period from sodium to chlorine.
		Covalent bonds are usually formed by the overlap of singly occupied atomic orbitals, and the number of singly occupied orbitals in atom gives a rough indication of the number of bonds it will form.

	A Timeline of Structural Theory
		Most of the structure and bonding ideas in textbooks [and this web book is no exception] are expressed in terms of Lewis and valence shell electron pair repulsion (VSEPR) theories, and the ideas are often presented as being real with statements such as: "a covalent bond involves a shared pair of electrons".
		Valence Bond Theory Once atomic orbitals were understood in terms of both Bohr's quantum numbers and the Schrödinger wave equation, the quest was on to understand bonding in molecules.
		Valence bond theory can also explain why the carbons in ethene (ethylene) are triangular planar by invoking sp2 hybridization and why ethyne (acetylene) is linear: sp hybridization.

	3. Types of Chemical Bonding [Beyond Books - Introduction to Chemistry Concepts]
		A bond is formed when electrons from two atoms interact with each other and their atoms become joined.
		The bonds that hold the carbon and hydrogen atoms in rubber together, on the other hand, are not ionic but covalent.
		Essential to understanding all types of chemical bonding is realizing that all bonds use electron "glue." Every substance is made up of atoms, and all atoms are surrounded by the charged particles called electrons.

		Chemical bonding is the cornerstone of chemistry, and this book provides a very readable account of the main concepts and theories used over the last 70 or 80 years to comprehend the nature of the chemical bond and the structure of molecules, primarily those of the main group elements.
		The theory of atoms in molecules (AIM) and the analysis of electron density distributions, which are becoming increasingly popular with the advent of more refined ab initio methods and more readily available X-ray crystallographic data, are described in Chapter 6.
		However, for more general courses on bonding and structure, either at the senior undergraduate or graduate level, the use of additional textbooks to describe bonding theories for transition metals (i.e., CFT and MOT) and the common experimental techniques used in structural chemistry would be necessary.
