Activity Sheet 6: Transfer or shared?

Objective: Predict the type of bonds formed depending on the involved Elements.

If the electronegativity difference is greater than 1.9, there will be complete transfer of electron/s,
hence, an ionic bond is formed.
If the electronegativity difference is less than or equal to 0.4, then a nonpolar covalent bond is
formed.
If the electronegativity difference is greater than 0.4 but not more than 1.9, then a polar covalent
bond is formed.

Note: Either of the two Elements’ electronegativity values are the subtrahend or minuend, it doesn’t
matter. Just take the difference.
(Liza A. Alvarez, et. Al (2014). Science 9 Learning Module. Studio Graphics Corp.)

Predict what bond will form in the following combination of Elements:

Example: Hydrogen and Fluoride (H=2.2, F=3.98)

□ Ionic Bond □ Polar Covalent □Non-Polar

1. Sodium and Bromine (Na=0.93, Br=2.96) □ Ionic Bond □Covalent Bond

2. Lithium and Fluorine (Li=0.98, F=3.98) □ Ionic Bond □Covalent Bond

3. Iodine and Iodine (I=2.66)

□ Ionic Bond Polar Covalent □Non-Polar Covalent

4. Hydrogen and Sulfur (H=2.2, S=2.58)

□ Ionic Bond □ Polar Covalent □Non-Polar Covalent

5. Nitrogen and Hydrogen (N=3.04, H=2.2)

□ Ionic Bond □ Polar Covalent □Non-Polar Covalent

ACTIVITY SHEET 8
TRANSFER AND BOND TO ME!

Material: Periodic Table of Elements

Note: Use Periodic Table as your reference.

Procedure:

Step 1. Select a metallic and a non-metallic element from your periodic table. Write the Lewis
Symbol of the selected elements. Take note of the electronegativity value of both elements.
Subtract the electronegativity value of the metallic element from the non-metallic element.

EN= 0.90 EN= 3.0

Thus: 3.0 - 0.90 = 2.1
*If the difference is greater than 1.9, complete transfer of electron/s is possible.
Thus, ionic bond is present.

Step 2. With the use of an arrow, show the complete transfer of electrons.

+
Step 3. Indicate the formation of cation and anion.
 When an element transfers/loses electron, it becomes positively charged and it is called
cation. On the other hand, when an element receives/accepts electron, it becomes negatively
charged and is called anion. After ionic bonding, both sodium and chlorine attained stability.

Given the following element with electronegativity, illustrate how ionic bonding is
formed by following steps 1-3.
Na (EN: 0.93 ) and F (EN: 3.98 ) K (EN: 0.82) and F (EN: 3.98)
Step 1: Step 1:

Step 2: Step 2:

[ [
Q3. How do ions formed?
I Ions form after complete sharing of electrons.
[
Ions form after complete transfer of electrons.
[
Q4. How can you tell that ionic bonding will take place between metals and nonmetals?
Ionic bonding will take place between metal and non-metal with electronegativity
[ difference of greater than 1.9
Io nic bonding will take place between two non-metals with electronegativity
[
difference of greater than 1.9
Q5. Will all combinations of metals and non-metals form ionic bond? Why?
Not all metal-nonmetal combinations will result in an ionic bond. Only those with
[
electronegativity difference of more than 1.9
[ All metal-nonmetal combinations will result in an ionic bond.
