Theformula mass of an ionic compound isthe sum of the atomic masses of theions in their simplest ratio.● Sodium chloride consists of an ioniclattice in which the ions are present inthe ratio 1:1. Therefore, the formula ofsodium chloride is taken to be NaCl .Atomic mass of sodium = 23;chlorine = 35.5.Formula mass of sodium chloridechlorinesodium= 23 + 35.5 = 58.5Na = 23.0 0Cl = 35.45© Diagram Visual Information Ltd.● Ion ic38ELEMENTS AND COMPOUNDSKey wordsanionbondcationcoordinationnumberionic crystalionlatticeStructure of some ioniccrystals1 Simple cubic structure (CsCl)cationsanionsIonic crystals● Inan ion ic crystal, each ion issurrounded by a number of oppositelycharged ions in a lattice structure.● There are several types of ionicstructures.Simple: The atoms form grids.Body centered: One atom sits in thecenter of each cube.Face centered: One atom sits in each“face” of the cube.● The lattice structure is determined bytwo factors:1.
the ratio of the number of cation s(positively charged ions) to an ion s(negatively charged ions)2. the ratio of the radii of the ions.● In general, the higher the value of theradius ratio the higher thecoordin ation n u m ber of the lattice.The coordination number is thenumber of atoms, ions, or moleculesto which bon ds can be formed.2 Face-centered cubic structure (NaCl)cationsanions1 Simple cubic structure(CsCl)● Incesium chloride, the radius ratio is0.94 (due to the large cesium ion).The coordination is 8:8.

The thirdlayer is placed directly above the first,and the fourth layer directly above thesecond, etc. This arrangement issometimes represented as ABABAB.2 Face-centered cubicclose packing● Herethe third layer does not sitdirectly above either the first orsecond layers.
The pattern is repeatedafter three layers, giving rise to anABCABCABC arrangement.3 Body-centered cubicpacking● Herethe layers are formed from ionsarranged in squares. The second layeris positioned so that each sphere inthe second layer is in contact with fourspheres in the first layer. The thirdlayer sits directly above the first layer,giving rise to an ABABAB arrangement.© Diagram Visual Information Ltd.3 Body-centered cubic packing40ELEMENTS AND COMPOUNDSKey wordsbody-centeredcubic packingcoordinationnumberface-centeredcubic closepackinghexagonal closepackingCrystal structure ofmetals: efficient packing1 Efficient packingHexagonal close packing1 Efficient packing● Bothhexagon al close packin g andface-cen tered cu bic close packin g maybe considered as efficient packingsince the spheres occupy 74 percentof the available space.
In botharrangements, each sphere is incontact with 12 others, and is said tohave a coordin ation n u m ber of 12.2 Less efficient packing● Body-cen teredcu bic packin g is lessefficient than hexagonal and facecentered cubic close packing. Spheresoccupy only 68 percent of the availablespace. Each sphere is in contact witheight others (four in the layer aboveand four in the layer below) and,therefore, has a coordination numberof eight.Face-centered cubic close packingMetals showing hexagonalclose packing● Cobalt● Magnesium● Titanium● ZincMetals showing facecentered cubic closepacking● Aluminum● Calcium● Copper● Lead© Diagram Visual Information Ltd.● NickelMetals showing bodycentered cubic packing● Group1 metals● Barium● Chromium● Iron● Vanadium2 Less efficient packingBody-centered cubic packing41Chemical combination:ionic bondingELEMENTS AND COMPOUNDSKey wordsanionbondcationchlorideionic bonding1 Formation of sodium chloride (NaCl)noble gasesoxideshellIonic bonding● IonicSodium atom (Na)bon ds are formed by theattraction of opposite charges.● In ion ic bon din g, the atoms in acompound gain, lose, or shareelectrons so the number of electronsin their outer shell is the same as thenearest n oble gas on the periodictable.● Non-metals gain electrons to givenegatively charged ions (an ion s).● Metal atoms loose electrons to givepositively charged ions (cation s).Chlorine atom (Cl)1 Formation of sodiumchloride (NaCl)● A sodiumChlorine ion (Cl–)Sodium ion (Na+ )Na+NaCl –ClSodium chloride(NaCl)atom has one electron in itsouter shell.
