Learning Intentions

• You can identify if a formula or name has ions in it or not

• You can identify monatomic cations, monatomic anions, polyatomic cation and polyatomic anions from ionic compounds.

• You can relate interactions between polar bears and penguins to different kind of bonding between atoms.

Content Standards being covered:

*Student understands why bonding (intramolecular forces) occurs between atoms, what types of bonds form when different elements interact, how the bonds form and properties that arise as a result of the bond forming.
93. Electronegativity is the amount of attraction that an atom has to pull an electron to itself, removing it from another atom and forming an anion (measured in Pauling Units)
121. Ionic compounds have large differences between the electronegativities of atoms >1.7
122. Covalent compounds (molecular compounds) have smaller (polar) <1.7 or no differences (non polar) between electronegativities of atoms
127. Ionic compounds are named according to the ions present in the compound
128. For ionic compounds, the cation is always listed first
131. Polyatomic ions are charged particles with more than one atom (poly- many, atomic- atoms) covalently bonded together
137. A polar molecule is a molecule where the atoms do not share the electrons equally (they have a difference in electronegativity between 0.4 and 1.7) or the molecule is unsymetrical and so create a slightly polar compound wherein one element becomes slightly positive and the other slightly negative
138. Nonpolar molecules are formed when there is no difference in electronegativity, < 0.4 or the overall compound is symmetrical
