Bonding
Involves the electrons in the outermost electron orbital
Ionic Bonding
Losing, giving up, donating of valence electrons coupled with the gaining, giving up or accepting of valence electrons
Ionic bonds
Forming ions that come together
What forms covalent bonds
Sharing of valence electrons
Which atoms only donate valence electrons?
+ charged cations
Which atoms only accept electrons?
- charged anions
Which atoms don't donate or accept electrons, only share them?
Group IVA

Nonmetals
Which atom does just about everything?
Hydrogen
What all can hydrogen do?
Donate electrons Accept electrons Share electrons
Which atoms don't do anything for bonding?
Noble/Inert Gas (Group VIIIA)
Octet Rule
Whenever the outermost electron orbital contains 8 electrons, it confers stability
What is the max amount of electrons that can be given up or taken up?
3e-
Electrons with 1e, 2e, 3e in outermost electron orbital most readily gives them up to be what?
Cations
Elements with 5e, 6e, 7e in outermost electron orbital takes up electrons to be what?
Anion
What is anions naming suffix?
"-ide"
Covalent bonding
Sharing electrons to fill the outermost electron orbital
