Fsu: Basic Concepts of Chemical Bonding: Exceptions to the Octet Rule

What a cute approach to chemical bonding! Atoms all have human names and are attending at a dance. Who will pair up with whom? By reading the characteristics, and not the element name, chemistry whizzes figure out the bonding pairs....

Four activities immerse beginning chemists into the world of elements. They examine the periodic table, use cobalt hydroxide to learn about chemical formulae and valence electrons. Also, they name binary compounds and examine the...

Atoms form relationships with other atoms, just like humans. Their relationships are called bonds and there are different types. Explore how energy is transferred between atoms through ionic and covalent bonds. 

Time for some class bonding! Learners explore the octet rule for creating covalent bonds. Using dot diagrams, the instructor illustrates covalent bonds within an element and shows an example of single, double, and triple bonds. 

A chemistry walks  viewers through non-polar covalent, polar covalent, and ionic bonds and how to determine the type of specific chemical bonds. 

This is an online exercise in which chemistry learners answer a series of multiple choice questions about bonding. Topics addressed include ionic and covalent bonds, electronegativity, ions, valence electrons, resonance structure, and...

Chemistry is the foundation of good farming. Learners explore how chemical bonding applies to agriculture. The lesson highlights the difference between organic and inorganic compounds and how similar compounds bond in very different ways.

"The name is Bond. James Bond." Or is that "Chemical Bond?" Assign the viewing of the video as homework, and then have your chemists come to class to practice drawing electron dot diagrams and Lewis structures with the several bonus...

This tutorial explains the basic concepts of ionic bonding, with a good discussion of lattice energy.

Discover interesting facts about chemical bonding. Your class will learn all about covalent and ionic bonds, metals, non metals, ions, protons, and electrons as the Bond Sisters explain their relationships. A little fast but still a good...
