Basics of Ionic and Covalent Bonding
Lewis Dot diagrams
C. Souders- Battlefield
Standard of Learning
SOL CH.3 d: The student will demonstrate an understanding of various bonding processes and the properties
associated with each.
Essential Question(s)
• How are chemical bonds classified?
• How does the bond type affect properties?
• How are electron dot diagrams used to represent compounds?

PWCS Standards Based Planning Process
Standards:
What will students know and be able to do?
Essential Understanding -
�
Many chemical bonds can be classified as ionic or covalent.
•
Ionic bonds are indicated by transfer of electron(s) from one
atom to another.
•
Covalent bonds are indicated by sharing of electron(s) by
two atoms.
�
Compounds have various properties depending on bond type.
•
Electron dot diagrams can be used to represent ionic and covalent
compounds.
Essential Skill –
•
Based upon the bond types form
ed in a compound, predict the physical
properties of the compound with respect to selected properties such as
conductivity, boiling point, freezing point and any chemical properties that
affect is ability to undergo reactions.
•
Use drawings of the Bohr model of the atom to illustrate the electron
distribution of the bonds in covalent, ionic, and polar bonds.
•
Use the Lewis Dot concept to illustrate the form
ation of covalent bonds,
including single, double, and triple bonds where applicable.
Assessment: How will the student and I know when he/she is
successful?

Bond – Switch – Bond
• Each of you will be given an ion card.
• You will wander around the room with your hand in the air, when you come in contact
with another person slap hands, they are your bonding partner.
• Write down the positive ion and the negative ions that the two of you possess (If you do
not have opposite ions you cannot bond and you need to start mingling again) and create
your compound.
• After you and your partner have created (or eliminated the ability to create) a compound,
swap ions with each other and roam the room with your hand in the air again.
• When you find another partner, slap hands, introduce yourself to your new bonding mate
and continue to roam the room.

Covalent Compound Bingo Chip Challenge 1. You and a partner will be given a bag of bingo chips and a bag of element cards. 2. You will have 15 minutes to create as many covalent compounds as you can
using no more than two elements in each compound. 3. You must use the element card and bingo chips to build the dot diagram for each
element in your compound to make sure they fit.

Summary: This video clip shows an animated representation of an ionic bond. It shows how electrons from one
element are given up to another element in order to satisfy the octet rule.
Summarize what you have learned about covalent and ionic bonds in this easy to read chart.
Be sure to include things like properties, how the octet rule applies, what makes up each type
of bond, etc.
