3. 3 H 2, A Covalent Molecule In a hydrogen (H 2 ) molecule Two hydrogen atoms share electrons to form a covalent single bond. Each H atom acquires two (2) electrons. Each H becomes stable like helium (He). Copyright © 2008 by Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings

4. 4 Diatomic Elements These elements share electrons to form diatomic, covalent molecules. Table 5.9 Copyright © 2008 by Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings

9. 9 Names of Covalent Compounds Prefixes are used In the names of covalent compounds. Because two nonmetals can form two or more different compounds. Examples of compounds of N and O: NO nitrogen oxide NO 2 nitrogen dioxide N 2 O dinitrogen oxide N 2 O 4 dinitrogen tetroxide N 2 O 5 dinitrogen pentoxide

10. 10 Naming Covalent Compounds STEP 1 Name the first nonmetal as the element. STEP 2 End the name of the second nonmetal with -ide STEP 3 Use prefixes to show the number of atoms (subscripts). Mono is usually omitted. Table 5.11 Copyright © 2008 by Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings

12. Do Now Name the following N 2 O 2 CO CH 4 N 2 O 5 12

13. 13 What is the name of SO 3 ? STEP 1 The first nonmetal is S sulfur. STEP 2 The second nonmetal is O named oxide. STEP 3 The subscript 3 of O is shown as the prefix tri. SO 3 → sulfur trioxide The subscript 1(for S) or mono is understood. Naming Covalent Compounds

14. 14 Name P 4 S 3 STEP 1 The first nonmetal P is phosphorus. STEP 2 The second nonmetal S is sulfide. STEP 3 The subscript 4 of P is shown as tetra. The subscript 3 of O is shown as tri. P 4 S 3 → tetraphosphorus trisulfide Naming Covalent Compounds
