1 Chemical Bonds of Compounds Conduction of Heat & Electricity

2 Review of Periodic Table

3

4 Compounds with Ionic Bonds -One or more electrons are transferred from the atom(s) of the metal to the atom(s) of the non- metal. -When the electron(s) are transferred, the result is a positive and a negative species called ions

5 Ions Are similar to atoms except that the number of protons does not equal the number of electrons They have a net electric charge When these species come in contact they stick together They dissolve in water which allows these solutions to conduct electricity

6 Characteristics of Ionic Compounds When these compounds are dissolved in water, the ions separate back into their individually charged species (dissociation) This separation allows these solutions to conduct electricity. An ionic compound in solution is called and electrolytic solution (a solution capable of carrying an electric current)

7 Compounds with Covalent Bonds - made up of non-metals - electrons are shared - bond is a permanent attachment between the atoms to form a unit - a chemical reaction must occur to separate these atoms back to their elemental form -they do not separate into charged species when dissolved in water, do not conduct electricity

8 Molecule = an electrically neutral group of atoms held together strongly enough to act as a single particle. Review Kinds of Bonds

9 Conductivity of Electricity by Metals When more electrons are pushed into a piece of metal (by an electric current for example) the electrons just flow through the metal in between the metal atoms Common metals - copper, silver, aluminum.

10 Conductivity of Heat by Metals

11 Ability of Metal to Conduct Heat One of the properties that defines an element as a metal is its ability to conduct heat and electricity The reason metals conduct heat so well is that the electrons in them can move around easily, and they can carry heat from one part to another

12 More Specifically Heat Conduction is: The flow of heat from a hot part of a body to a cooler part, without transfer of matter. Conduction can also take place from one body to another, provided the two bodies are in contact, and a temperature difference exists between them. For example, a pot on a hot plate is heated by conduction from the stove surface, via the underside of the pot.

13 How is the heat conducted? Through its particles that are constantly vibrating or oscillating against each other. Through these collisions, the heat energy is conducted through the length of the piece of metal. The hotter atoms (faster moving) vibrate against slower moving cooler atoms causing them to heat up.

14 Ability of a metal to conduct heat? What is an element of metal made of? Atoms that vibrate Free electrons that move around

15 Do all metals have the same ability to conduct heat? In some metals (copper, gold, silver, aluminum) the electrons can travel past hundreds of atoms before bumping into something that makes them change directions. In others (especially alloys with more than one type of metal atom) the electrons travel only past a few atoms before bouncing off some irregularity in the material. Alloys are basically a mixture of two or more metals - Depending on what element is added, you could create Stainless Steel or Galvanized Steel or carbon- steel alloys are used in armor plating and weapons.

16 Comparison of Heat Conduction Capability Percent of Heat Conduction Capacity – Silver = 100%
