Name: Havannah Mcilwian Date: 10/10/23 School: WCHS Facilitator: Woody Baughn 2.03 Bonding Predictions Answer the following 8 questions using your knowledge of the periodic table and bonding. You may use the periodic table linked in the Task area to help you complete the assignment. Predict the type of bonding (ionic, polar covalent, or nonpolar covalent) that will occur between the following atoms and then offer a brief explanation why you made your prediction. 1. Calcium (Ca) and Fluorine (F) a. What type of bond will form between these two elements? ionic bond b. Why? This is because calcium (Ca) has 2 valence electrons and fluorine (F) has 7 valence electrons. Calcium will donate its 2 valence electrons to fluorine, resulting in the formation of an ionic bond 2. Carbon (C) and Hydrogen (H) a. What type of bond will form between these two elements? covalent bond b. Why? This is because both carbon and hydrogen need to share electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. 3. Lithium (Li) and I odine ( I ) a. What type of bond will form between these two elements? ionic bond b. Why? This is because lithium has 1 valence electron and iodine has 7 valence electrons. Lithium will donate its electron to iodine, resulting in the formation of an ionic bond 4. Bromine (Br) and Bromine (Br) a. What type of bond will form between these two elements? covalent bond b. Why? This is because both bromine atoms have the same electronegativity and will share electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. 5. Phosphorus (P) and Chlorine (Cl) a. What type of bond will form between these two elements? ionic bond b. Why? This is because phosphorus has 5 valence electrons and chlorine has 7 valence electrons. Phosphorus wll donate its 3 electrons to chlorine, resulting in the formation of an ionic bond.
6. Potassium (K) and Chlorine (Cl) a. What type of bond will form between these two elements? ionic bond b. Why? This is because potassium has 1 valence electron and chlorine has 7 valence electrons. Potassium will donate its electron to chlorine, resulting in the formation of an ionic bond 7. Oxygen (O) and Oxygen (O) a. What type of bond will form between these two elements? covalent bond b. Why? This is because both oxygen atoms have a strong attraction for electrons and will share electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. 8. Nitrogen (N) and Hydrogen (H) a. What type of bond will form between these two elements? Covalent bond b. Why? This is because both nitrogen and hydrogen need to share electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration.
