O.Chem CH 1

Formal charge VE- (bonds+ lone electrons)
Types of molecular geometry and their bond angles - linear = 180 - Bent = 105 - tetrahedral = 109.5 -trigonal planar =120 - trigonal pyramidal <109.5
Steric # the # of lone e- pairs + # of atoms around the central atom
For H, B, O, S, C, N, P how many bonds and LP do they need for a FC of 0 H- 1 bond B - 3 bonds, 0 LP O - 2 bonds, 2 lP S - 2 bonds, 2 LP C - 4 bonds, 0 LP N, P - 3 bonds w 1 LP
Electronegativity how strong an atom attracts shared E-. Increases from left to right on the periodic table, and from top to bottom. F has the highest EN. if EN difference >0.5 then bond is polar.
Types of intermolecular forces - London dispersion C-H - Dipole-dipole - Hydrogen bonds: O-H, N-H, H-F
London dispersion bonds formed by two non-polar bonds. The higher the molecular mass the higher the london dispersion. If MM is the same, the more linear has more LDF b/c it has more contact surface. CH (hydrocarbon bonds are always non-polar. Only dissolve in non-polar solvent
Dipole-Dipole bonds Formed by two non-polar bonds
Hydrogen bonds Have the highest intermolecular force, formed with H. Highest polarity and highest boiling points.
Dipole moment When 2 vectors of the same magnittude ar4e going the opposite direction then the some of the dipole force is 0 and it is nonpolar
Polar molecules vs non-polar Polar compounds have central atoms that have either lone pairs or multiple types of atoms. Nonpolar compounds do not have lone pairs on the central atom or different atoms.VB
VBT Valence bond theory: covalent bonds formed when two atomsw of hybrid orbitals interact with each other. create SP, SP2, and SP3 orbitals
Hydrid orbitals Combination formed by combining atom orbitals. # of hybrid orbitals formed = # of atomic orbitals combined.
Types of orbitals 1 type of S orbital, 3 types of P orbitals. (XYZ) and then followed by d and F
The central atoms uses what vs the terminal atom? central atom use the hybrid atom, while the terminal atom uses the atomic orbital.
Sigma VS Pi bonds Sigma bonds are single bonds while pi bonds are more than 1 and are formed from unhybridized P orbital.
What is needed for a high boiling/melting point? A strong intermolecular force, because more energy is needed to separate them.
Long non-polar chains do what to polar atoms. polar atoms with long nonpolar chains have reduced solubility,
Molecular orbital theory MOT, electrons have a wave like function,
constructive interference 2 + waves reinforce each other to create one constructive wave. They are more stable and bc of their lower energy. Only constructive interference result in a bond
Destructive wave 1+ and 1- waves interact and cancel to create a destructive wave. does not result in a bond
Bonding molecular lower energy and is more stable
antibonding higher energy and more reactive.
HOMO Highest occupied molecular orbital
LUMO Lowest unoccupied molecular orbital
Induction Shifting of the e- within an orbital and result in dipole moment, which is the amount of partial charge x distance the partial charge is separated.
Dipole moment the amount of partial charge x distance the partial charge is separated. are reported in units of debye (p) which is equal to 10 +8 electrostatic unit x cm.
% ionic character = the observed dipole moment/units of dipole moment x 100%

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
