Part II: Binary Covalent Compounds
Covalent compounds are produces by nonmetals bonding with one another. You can use the valence
electrons for each element to determine the simplest formula that exists between two elements. For
example, H has 1 valence electron and needs one more to obey the Octet Rule, so it will only make 1
bond when found in a compound. Oxygen has 6 valence electrons and needs two more to obey the
Octet Rule, so it typically makes 2 bonds when found in a compound. Since hydrogen needs just one
electron while oxygen needs two, the correct formula for the simplest compound would be H20.
However, there are often other combinations possible in addition to the simplest formula. For
example, hydrogen and oxygen can also form, H2O2, which is known as hydrogen peroxide. To work
with all the possible combinations, some rules have been developed for naming binary covalent
compounds. The rules are stated below:
1. The least metallic element will always end in the suffix…
2. Identify the true statement.
a. Polar covalent compounds result from a complete transfer of at least one electron.
b. Sodium is unlikely to form a bond with lithium.
c. Covalent compounds exist in large lattices.
d. The smallest unit of an ionic compound is a molecule.
3. A piece of zinc metal is placed in an aqueous solution of magnesium sulfate. The products of this
reaction are
a. ZnMg(s) + SO4(aq)
b. Mg(s) + ZnSO4(aq)
c. MgS(s) + ZnO4(aq)
d. ZnO(s) + MgSO4(aq)
e. There will be no reaction.

a. linear
b. trigonal planar
c. tetrahedral
d. trigonal pyramidal
e. V-shaped
