Chemical bonds are forces that hold the atoms together in 3 “ference between the atoms

valence (outermost) electrons of the atoms participate in
bonds. When two atoms approach each other, these

metal atoms together very stronglyMetallic Bond
> Formed between like atoms of
(@ force that holds atoms together in a metallic
substance)
> Such solid consists of tightly packed atoms, where
the outermost electron shell of each metal atom
overlaps with a large number of neighboring atoms.
As a consequence, the valence electrons move
freely from one atom to another
> Examples; Na, Fe, Al, Au, Co
Hydrogen Bond
>A hydrogen bond is a chemical bond between a
hydrogen atom and an electronegative atom.
However, it is not an ionic or covalent bond but is a
particular type of dipole-dipole attraction between
molecules
> First, the hydrogen atom is covalently bonded to a
axety electronegative atom resulting in a positive
charge, which is then attracted towards an
electronegative atom resulting ina hydrogen bond
Hydrogen Bond: Examples
+ Hydrogen atom from one molecule of water bonds
with the oxygen atom from another molecule. This
bonding is quite significant in ice
+ In chloroform (CH,CI) and ammonia (NH)
hydrogen bonding occurs between the hydrogen of
‘one molecule and carbon/nitrogen of another,
+ Nitrogen bases present in DNA are held together by
a hydrogen bond

BONDING
Van der Waals Bond
+ Neutral molecules are held together by weak electric
forces known as Van der Waals frees. Van der Waals,

Electromagne
Waves and \
res] Interactions _<= —
Light, microwave, x-ray, TV, and cell phone
transmission are all kinds of
electromagnetic waves.
Electromagnetic waves are a group of energy waves that
‘are mostly invisible and can travel through empty space
These energies bombard our bodies all day long, but we
are only aware of a very small portion of them: visible
light (colors), infrared light (heat), and ultraviolet
(sunburn)
meni 7
Electromagnetic energy is created by
vibrations that produce waves.
Each electromagnetic wave emits a different level of
energy. These energies travel silently atthe speed of
light and produce a “signature” wave - with a unique
range of length, energy, and frequency ~ that scientis
can identify and measure.
Wercan measure the energy of an
electromagnetic wave by measuring its
frequency
Frequency refers to the number of waves a vibration
creates during a period of time. In general, the higher the
frequency, or number of waves, the greater the energy of

Another popular group of waves from the
electromagnetic spectrum involves infrared.
Infrared radiation is a type of electromagnetic radiation
that involves heat. or thermal radiation
All objects emit (give out) and absorb (take in) thermal
radiation,
a
Let's look at an example of absorption.
\When you go to the dentist, one of the first things they do
is obtain an x-ray of you. Unnecessary exposure of x-ray
radiation can be harmful, so doctors try to minimize the
‘area thal those electromagnetic waves interact with your
body by making you wear special protective clothing,
& light by a material i @
Reflection ~ The return ofWhat do these spe:
I clothes do?
“These protective clothes contain some amount of a
dense element, lead, in them. The high density ofthis
element allows x-rays to be absorbed by atoms in lead,
decreasing the energy of the x-rays. Lead, in turn,
‘shields your body from unnecessary radiation by
absorbing x-rays.
How do microwaves heat up food?
Microwaves utilize the fact that food contains water
molecules. When a microwave is turned on, the eneray
from microwaves is absorbed by water molecules in
food, making them vibrate. These vibrations give off
heat, which warms up your food
oe 7
nother example of absorption of
electromagnetic waves in our daily lives
involve the use of a microwave.
Microwaves are widely used to quickly heat up food
Microwaves are also referred to as range of waves in the
tlectromagnetic spectrum with a specific wavelength and
frequency.
