1. Atomic Structure & Chemical Bonding. Goal. To understand why atoms form molecules. Objectives. After this chapter, you should be able to. interpret the properties of elements that are important for life from the periodic table. understand why and how atoms form bonds. draw Lewis dot and line structures to represent chemical bonds. What is life?
The purpose of this lab is to construct different atoms using M&M’s or similar candy and a template of the model of the atom. It provides students with an opportunity to practice locating and identifying
ATOMIC STRUCTURE FUNDAMENTALS. LEARNING OBJECTIVES. To review the basics concepts of atomic structure that have direct relevance to the fundamental concepts of organic chemistry. This material is essential to the understanding of organic molecular structure and, later on, reaction mechanisms. BASIC CONCEPTS.
In this lab exercise you will draw Lewis structures of a wide variety of molecules and build three dimensional molecular models to determine the shape of the molecules. You will also examine how bonding and shape can explain whether a molecule is polar or non-polar. LEWIS STRUCTURES.
Purpose. To determine the Lewis dot structures and VSEPR geometries of a variety of covalently bonded molecules and ions. Background. While some atomic elements can be found in nature, most combine with other atoms to form larger groups called molecules.
In this lab exercise you will draw Lewis dot structures of a wide variety of molecules and build three dimensional molecular models to determine the shape of the molecules using Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion Theory (VSEPR).
Background. While some atomic elements can be found in nature, most combine with other atoms to form larger groups called molecules. Lewis Theory states that atoms will form bonds with their valence electrons in order to fill their outer orbitals to mimic the electron configuration of the noble gases.
