Question
Answer
When an s electron is promoted to an empty p orbital forming new equivalent orbitals.?   Orbital hybridization  
🗑
Orbital hybridization is used to?   create equal bonding sites that require all equal amounts of energy.  
🗑
Creates 2 bonding sites?   SP hybridized  
🗑
creates 3 bonding sites?   sp^2 hybridized  
🗑
creates 4 bonding sites?   SP^3 Hybridized  
🗑
Vespr theory stands for?   Valence shell electron pair repulsion theory  
🗑
what does the vespr theory state?   it states the 3-d shape of the bonds and atoms in a molecule. based on the fact that negative charges repel one another.  
🗑
The repulsion of the negative regions of a molecule create?   specific 3-d shapes  
🗑
negative regions :   Lone pair of electrons, a simple, double, or triple bond.  
🗑
Lone pairs and bonds will move as far a part as possible? true or false?   True!!!! :)  
🗑
Practice your Lewis structures,Kyle!   No you robot! you don't control me!...  
🗑
Are sigma bonds stronger than pie bonds?   yes  
🗑
disadvantages of lewis structures?   they do not show 3-d shape  
🗑
Valence Bond theory?   Covalent bonds are formed when different atoms overlap.  
🗑
Sigma bond?   Bond formed by orbitals that overlap directly between the nuclei of the atom  
🗑
Pi bond?   Bond formed by orbitals that overlap above and below the nuclei of 2 atoms  
🗑
single bond =?   one sigma bond  
🗑
double bond?   one sigma and one pie bond.  
🗑
triple bond?   one sigma and 2 pie bonds.  
🗑
What bond is the strongest?   triple bond  
🗑
instead of oscillating between 2 possible bond configurations, the bonds take on an intermediate character.   Resonance  
🗑
Octet exception 1.   molecules with an odd number of valence electrons.  
🗑
octet exception 2.   some elements are content with fewer than 4 pairs of electrons ex. boron likes 6  
🗑
octet exception 3.   more than 8 valence electrons can be shared with a central atom.  
🗑
Molecular orbital theory?   orbitals are replaced by totally new orbitals when molecules are formed.  
🗑
what are anti bonding orbitals?   they consist of electrons that interfere with each other and they require more energy then atomic orbitals.  
🗑
A central atom surrounded by 4 electron regions? (shape)?   Tetrahedral  
🗑
A central atom surrounded by 3 electron regions?   Trigonal Planar  
🗑
A central atom surrounded by 2 electron regions?   Linear  
🗑
a central atom surrounded by 3 bonds and a lone pair of electrons?   Pyramidal  
🗑
A central atom surrounded by 2 bonds and 1 or 2 pairs of electrons?   Bent  
🗑
Do bonds in diatomic molecules have polarity?   No!  
🗑
Bonds where electrons are not shared equally are called?   Polar covalent bonds  
🗑
Review : Bonds between elements are partially?   ionic and covalent  
🗑
Partial charges are shown with what symbol?   lower case delta  
🗑
In general symmetric molecules are non-polar while asymmetrical molecules are polar?   true!  
🗑
Bent and pyramidal always produce polar molecules when they contain polar bonds?   yes.  
🗑
Tetrahedral,Trigonal planar,and linear are ----?. If their outer atoms are different they are ----??   non-polar;polar  
🗑
The size and direction of a molecules total polarity?   Dipole moment  
🗑
