Bonding, Carbon and Water Mini Lecture 2.2 AP Biology • Atoms with unfilled outer shells tend to undergo chemical reactions to fill their outer shells. • They can attain stability by sharing electrons with other atoms (covalent bond) or by losing or gaining electrons (ionic bond) • The atoms are then bonded together into molecules. • Octet rule—atoms with at least two electron shells form stable molecules so they have eight electrons in their outermost shells. Ionic bonds • Ions are charged particle that form when an atom gains or loses one or more electrons. • Cations—positively charged ions • Anions—negatively charged ions • Ionic bonds result from the electrical attraction between ions with opposite charges. • The resulting molecules are called salts. Covalent bonds • Covalent bonds form when two atoms share pairs of electrons. • The atoms attain stability by having full outer shells. • Each atom contributes one member of the electron pair. • Carbon atoms have four electrons in the outer shell—they can form covalent bonds with four other atoms. Strength and stability—covalent bonds are very strong; it takes a lot of energy to break them. • Multiple bonds • Single—sharing 1 pair of electronsC H • C C Double—sharing 2 pairs of electrons • N N Triple—sharing 3 pairs of electrons Degree of sharing electrons is not always equal. • Electronegativity—the attractive force that an atomic nucleus exerts on electrons • It depends on the number of protons and the distance between the nucleus and electrons. • If two atoms have similar electronegativities, they share electrons equally, in what is called a nonpolar covalent bond. • If atoms have different electronegativities, electrons tend to be near the most attractive atom, in what is called a polar covalent bond Polar Covalent Bonds • Electronegative O pulls efrom H • This causes a partial (+) charge on the H, and a partial (-) charge on the O • Partial charges are indicated by lower case deltas (d) • The bonds between O and H are polar covalent bonds Biology, Sixth Edition Chapter 2, Atoms and Molecules d+ d- d+ Water Forms Hydrogen Bonds • Partial charges interact • Hs attracted to Os • Causes water to self-associate Biology, Sixth Edition Chapter 2, Atoms and Molecules Hydrogen Bonding • Gaseous water molecules interact very little • Liquid water molecules are hydrogen bonded, but can slip past each other • As water freezes, it forms a crystalline lattice because H bonding lasts longer Biology, Sixth Edition Chapter 2, Atoms and Molecules Water is “Sticky” • Water is sticky because of H bonding • Cohesive – sticks to itself • Adhesive – sticks to other things – Meniscus Biology, Sixth Edition Chapter 2, Atoms and Molecules Water has High Surface Tension • Water sticks to itself strongly and so has high surface tension – Forms meniscus – Forms droplets – Small animals can ‘skate’ on surface Biology, Sixth Edition Chapter 2, Atoms and Molecules Other water properties • High specific heat • High heat of vaporization • Great solvent • Carbon: Carbon • Is the single most abundant element of Life • Is neither strongly electronegative nor positive • Can share 4 electrons and form 4 covalent bonds with 4 other atoms (single, double or triple bonds) • Interacts with many other atoms • Makes a great variety of molecules – because it can form straight or branched chains or rings • The diversity of carbon-carbon interactions provides for the diversity of biomolecules: lipid, carbohydrate, protein, nucleic acid Biology, Sixth Edition Chapter 3, Chemistry of Life: Carbon Double Bonds • 2 double bonds connect O to C on either side, and the molecule is linear. • As a result, oxygen atoms pull on electrons in a linear manner and so carbon dioxide is nonpolar. Biology, Sixth Edition Chapter 3, Chemistry of Life: Covalent Carbon-Carbon Bonds • Carbon may form… • single bonds H H C C H H C C H H H H C C – ethane • double bonds – ethene H • triple bonds H – ethyne H H H C C H H Biology, Sixth Edition Chapter 3, Chemistry of Life: H H H H C C H H C C H H H All strict hydrocarbons - those with Hydrocarbons: C & H only C and H - are hydrophobic & don’t mix with H 2O Biology, Sixth Edition Chapter 3, Chemistry of Life: • Macromolecules • Most biological molecules are polymers (poly, “many”; mer, “unit”), made by covalent bonding of smaller molecules called monomers. 4 MAIN Macromolecules • Proteins: Formed from different combinations of 20 amino acids • Carbohydrates—formed by linking similar sugar monomers (monosaccharides) to form polysaccharides • Nucleic acids—formed from four kinds of nucleotide monomers • Lipids—noncovalent forces maintain the interactions between the fatty acid monomers Polymers are formed and broken apart in reactions involving water. • Condensation—removal of water puts monomers together (dehydration synthesis) • Hydrolysis—addition of water breaks a polymer into monomers PDQ 2.2 1. Ionic vs. Covalent Ionic • 1 atom donates to another atom in order to fill their outer shells • Metal donates to the nonmetal • Bond occurs from attraction of cation (+) to anion (-) Covalent • Both atoms share electrons in order to fill their outer shells • Occurs between 2 nonmetals • Bond can be polar (shared unequally)or nonpolar (shared equally) 2. Electronegativity • Attractive force than an atomic nucleus exerts on electrons in a covalent bond • Causes covalent bonds to not be shared equally • Causes partial charges on atoms 3. Nonpolar Covalent vs. Polar Covalent Nonpolar Covalent • Bond in which electrons are shared equally • Occurs when 2 atoms are close to each other in electronegativity Polar Covalent • Bond in which electrons are not shared equally • Occurs when 2 atoms are NOT close to each other in electronegativity • Causes partial charges on atoms 4. Hydrogen bond and differences • Occurs between a partially positive charged atom and a partially negatively charged atom • It differs from a covalent bond because electrons are not being shared • It differs from an ionic bond because the charges are partial • It is weaker than both a covalent and an ionic bond 5. Hydrophilic vs. Hydrophobic Hydrophilic • Water loving • Polar • Attracted to water • Dissolves in water • Usually caused by polarity Hydrophobic • Water fearing • Nonpolar • Attracted to nonpolar substances like oil • Does not dissolve in water 6. Van Der Waals Compare • Chemical bond Contrast • Very weak compared to all other chemical bonds • Interaction of electrons of nonpolar substances only no polar substances are involved 7. Rank bonds from least to greatest energy • • • • • Van Der Waals Hydrophobic interactions Hydrogen Bond Ionic Bond Covalent Bond 8. Why is water polar? • Because the oxygen and hydrogen do NOT share their electrons equally • Oxygen wants the electron more because it is MORE electronegative • Therefore Oxygen gets more of a negative charge and hydrogen gets more of a positive charge • This means it is polar and unbalanced. 9.
