Grade 9 Chemistry Lesson 12 Molecular Compounds - By Lumos Learning
Transcript
00:00 | Hey there . Welcome to Mr Lee Han teaches you | |
00:02 | stuff . This is great . Nine chemistry . Less | |
00:04 | than 12 molecular compounds . So a molecular compound is | |
00:10 | when you have to non metals joint . Um , | |
00:14 | And when they joined , they don't steal the electrons | |
00:16 | , like ionic compounds do . So they don't create | |
00:20 | , like , positive and negative ions . Um , | |
00:23 | instead , they share the electrons . That's nice . | |
00:27 | Um , and they share these electrons for the same | |
00:29 | reasons that ionic compounds steal them . And that's to | |
00:33 | fill up their valence shells so they can be like | |
00:36 | the noble gases over on the far right of the | |
00:38 | table that have full valence shells . So water is | |
00:43 | an example of a molecular compound . I'm sure we're | |
00:46 | all familiar with water or H 20 Um , Now | |
00:50 | H 20 has to hide regions . That's the H | |
00:53 | two and one oxygen atom . Now the oxygen needs | |
00:59 | two more electrons to fill its valence shell , so | |
01:02 | that's oxygen in the middle . And it has six | |
01:05 | electrons in its valence shell , but it needs eight | |
01:08 | to have a full valence shell like neon the hydrogen | |
01:13 | . They need one electron to fill their valence shells | |
01:16 | because then we'll have to just like helium , so | |
01:20 | to fill up the valence shells of the hydrogen and | |
01:24 | the oxygen . What happens is they link up and | |
01:27 | they share electrons . So the two unpaid electrons that | |
01:32 | oxygen had are now shared with the hydrogen atoms , | |
01:37 | so the hydrogen now have to oxygen now has eight | |
01:40 | in its shell , and everybody's happy Now . Molecular | |
01:44 | compounds can be solids , liquids or gases at room | |
01:48 | temperature , so it's not really set in stone that | |
01:50 | they're all solids . They're all liquids or anything like | |
01:52 | that . They can be a variety of things , | |
01:56 | Um , and they have relatively low boiling points . | |
01:59 | So water , for example , has a boiling point | |
02:02 | of 100 degrees Celsius . If we compare that to | |
02:06 | an Ionic compound like salt , salt has a boiling | |
02:10 | point of 1413 degrees Celsius , so water seems relatively | |
02:16 | low by comparison , Um , and they usually do | |
02:19 | not conduct electricity well , so things like rubber or | |
02:24 | plastic that goes around wires . Those insulate us from | |
02:29 | the wires , right ? If you touch a wire | |
02:31 | that's got a rubber coating on it or a plastic | |
02:34 | coating on it , you don't get electrocuted . And | |
02:37 | that's because that plastic is a molecular compound that does | |
02:40 | not conduct electricity well , combining capacities . The combining | |
02:45 | capacity of an element refers to how many bonds it | |
02:48 | can form with other atoms . So how many other | |
02:51 | atoms can it be linked to ? In general , | |
02:55 | the combining capacity will be the same as the Ionic | |
02:58 | charge that that element can form . So if we're | |
03:01 | just looking over here at the non metals , we'll | |
03:03 | start off with Boron . Warren conformed . Three bonds | |
03:08 | . Carbon , although it can't form an ion , | |
03:10 | will form bonds , and it can form four bonds | |
03:15 | . Nitrogen can form three oxygen to Florian one , | |
03:20 | and then helium can form nothing . And that's the | |
03:22 | same for the whole columns there , so everything under | |
03:26 | helium will form zero . Everything under flooring will form | |
03:29 | one bond , etcetera . Now , the reason why | |
03:34 | the whole column will form the same number of bonds | |
03:38 | is because the combining capacity will be the same as | |
03:41 | the number of unpaid electrons in the valence shell . | |
03:44 | So we'll take a look at carbon so carbon can | |
03:48 | form four bonds . Here here it's bonded to four | |
03:51 | hydrogen . The reason why , if we look at | |
03:55 | the board diagram for carbon is that carbon has four | |
04:01 | unpaid electrons in its valence shell . That means it | |
04:05 | has four empty spots where other atoms can join up | |
04:09 | with the carbon . Okay , when we are naming | |
04:12 | molecular compounds , we need to add prefixes to the | |
04:15 | elements so that we know how many are in each | |
04:18 | compound , and the reason we do this is because | |
04:21 | they can combine in different combinations . So even if | |
04:24 | you have the same two elements combining , they can | |
04:28 | combine in different ways and you'll end up with different | |
04:30 | chemicals . For example , carbon and oxygen just C | |
04:35 | O is carbon monoxide . That's one chemical . But | |
04:39 | then C 02 is carbon dioxide , a completely different | |
04:43 | chemical with completely different chemical properties . So when we're | |
04:47 | naming molecular compounds just like ionic compounds , we name | |
04:51 | the two elements and then change the end of the | |
04:53 | second one to ID . But unlike Ionic compounds , | |
04:57 | we need to add prefixes to the elements as well | |
05:01 | . For example , n 20 If that was an | |
05:04 | ionic compound , it would just be nitrogen oxide . | |
05:08 | But these are both non metals , nitrogen and oxygen | |
05:12 | , so we know this is a molecular compound , | |
05:14 | so we need to add prefixes , and it is | |
05:17 | die nitrogen monoxide So let's just quickly rattle through the | |
05:22 | different prefixes that we can put into molecular compound names | |
05:27 | . Mono means one di means two tri means three | |
05:33 | Tetra means for , and these four here will be | |
05:37 | the most common ones that you will run into . | |
05:38 | But we'll go through the 1st 10 possible ones , | |
05:42 | just in case you need them . So Pente means | |
05:45 | five Hex is six . Help to seven . Octa | |
05:50 | is eight , Nana is nine and deca is 10 | |
05:55 | . So those are all the possible prefixes that you | |
05:58 | can find in molecular compounds . So when we're naming | |
06:02 | molecular compounds , if there's only one of the first | |
06:05 | element , then we don't give it a prefix . | |
06:08 | So there's no mono . For example , CO two | |
06:12 | is carbon dioxide . We don't call it mano carbon | |
06:15 | dioxide , So if there's a name of a molecular | |
06:19 | compound , it just starts off with an element just | |
06:23 | like carbon dioxide . We just assume that that means | |
06:26 | that its motto Carbon dioxide . But we don't write | |
06:29 | mono , so let's go through a few examples where | |
06:32 | we name molecular compounds . Uh , this first one | |
06:36 | is just carbon and oxygen , one of each , | |
06:38 | so it's going to be carbon monoxide for the second | |
06:43 | one . We've got one carbon and four Florina . | |
06:47 | The prefix for four is Tetra . So this one's | |
06:50 | gonna be carbon tetrachloride . Then we have two nitrogen | |
06:56 | and four oxygen . So too , is die and | |
07:00 | forest tetra . So we end up with Di nitrogen | |
07:04 | tetroxide and then our last example . Here we have | |
07:08 | one phosphorus and three chlorine and that ends up being | |
07:14 | phosphorus . Try chloride . All right . Now , | |
07:19 | if we're going the other way , we want to | |
07:20 | figure out what the chemical formula is . Uh , | |
07:22 | the number of atoms is already provided in the name | |
07:25 | , so it's pretty straightforward . Just list the elements | |
07:28 | symbols in order and include the necessary sub scripts . | |
07:32 | So , for example , di hydrogen dioxide means there's | |
07:36 | two of each , so you put a church to | |
07:38 | go to . So what is the chemical formula for | |
07:42 | di hydrogen monoxide ? Well , the dye means there's | |
07:46 | two hydrogen and then there's one oxygen . So that's | |
07:49 | going to be a church to , oh , better | |
07:51 | known as water . Then we have carbon tetra hydride | |
07:56 | , so we know there's gonna be one carbon tetra | |
07:59 | means force was going to be four hydrogen , so | |
08:02 | we get ch four , also known as methane then | |
08:07 | we have di phosphorus pent oxide . So die means | |
08:11 | there's two . Penta means there's five . So we | |
08:15 | get P 205 and then our last example . Here | |
08:19 | we have dying nitrogen hexafluoride . The dye means there's | |
08:24 | two , and Hexham means there's six , so we | |
08:27 | get n two cl six . All right , so | |
08:30 | that's it for the Grade nine chemistry unit . I | |
08:33 | hope you enjoyed watching these videos almost as much as | |
08:36 | I like making them . |
