Chapter Outline. 7.1 Ionic Bonding. 7.2 Covalent Bonding. 7.3 Lewis Symbols and Structures. 7.4 Formal Charges and Resonance. 7.5 Strengths of Ionic and Covalent Bonds. 7.6 Molecular Structure and Polarity. Introduction. It has long been known that pure carbon occurs in different forms (allotropes) including graphite and diamonds.
Carbon (4 electrons in the valence shell) combines with four hydrogen atoms to form a stable covalent compound where it shares 8 electrons, while each hydrogen shares 2. Thus every atom in this stable molecule fulfills the octet rule. ELECTRON SHARING IN THE METHANE (CH4) MOLECULE.
Table 1. Static scalar dipole polarizabilities (in atomic units) for neutral atoms. If not otherwise indicated by the state symmetry, ML (MJ) - averaged polarizabilities are listed; ML (MJ) respectively denotes that the polarizability for each ML (MJ) state can be found in the reference Abbreviations usedgiven.
By the end of this section, you will be able to: Predict the structures of small molecules using valence shell electron pair repulsion (VSEPR) theory. Explain the concepts of polar covalent bonds and molecular polarity. Assess the polarity of a molecule based on its bonding and structure.
Draw Lewis structures, name shapes and indicate polar or non-polar for the following molecules: CH4. NCl3. CCl2F2. CF2H2. CH2O. CHN. PI3. N2O.
