An in-depth exploration of molecular structure, focusing on covalent bonds, the valence shell electron pair repulsion (vsepr) model, and molecular geometry. Topics include bonding and nonbonding electron pairs, localized electron bonding, bond lengths, and various molecular geometries such as linear, trigonal planar, square planar, tetrahedral, trigonal bipyramidal, and octahedral.

Covalent Bonding
Mar. 28 – Apr. 1
Chemical Bond – a force causing a group of atoms to
behave as a unit; lower-energy state of the system
Example – for ethane (C
H
) we envision
one C-C bond and six C-H bonds
A bond can also be thought of as a
quantity of energy. The sum ofenergies in the individual bonds isequal to the energy of stabilizationfor the entire molecule.
Covalent, polar covalent, and ionic
bonds are defined by the relativeelectronegativities of the atoms
•All bonds of a particular type – eg, all C-H single bonds – have the same
amount of energy – simplifying assumption to understand molecular structure
•Energies for formation of a molecule from constituent atoms, and for
chemical reactions, can be calculated from this and similar tables.
•Breaking bonds costs energy, while forming bonds liberates energy•Multiple bonds carry higher energies
Bond lengths for higher-energy multiple bonds are shorter
