B. Chemical Bond

• Strong attractive force between atoms or ions

in a molecule or compound.

• Formed by:

– transferring e- (losing or gaining)

– sharing e-

4

C. Stability

• Stability is the driving force or main reason

behind bond formation. ___ is stable ?

• Elements can [1]gain, [2]lose or [3]share

electrons to become stable-

• Octet Rule

– most atoms form bonds in order to have 8 valence e-

– want a full outer energy level-

(takes 8 to get a full belly) except for1st period babies _____?

– like the Noble Gases all have 8 VE

except for baby ______whose outer shell/belly can only 2 ?
