Things to RememberHowever many unhybridized orbitals you start with, is how many you end with.

Hybrid orbitals are a combination of the atomic orbitals and belong to the atom and are still “atomic” orbitals

These hybrid orbitals overlap with each other to form bonds.

Each atom in a molecule can have its own (different) hybridization type.

Sigma bonds are made from hybrid orbitals in hybridized atoms

Pi bonds are made from left over p orbitals in hybridized atoms

Going Back to the Lewis Structures we did…..again…..

Molecular Orbital Theory_________________________ treatment of bonding

Orbitals belong to ___________ instead of individual _____________________________ of atomic orbitals

Adds or subtract _________ orbitals to get ___________ orbitals

Treatment yields better agreement with experiment and better prediction

So why don’t we use it for everything?

Bonding and Anti-bonding OrbitalsIn hybridization, when we combined a # of atomic orbitals we got back that same number of hybrid atomic orbitals

In MO theory we’ll combine a ____ atomic orbitals and get _____ molecular orbitals. Two _________ orbitals give two __________ orbitals

One will be the __________ of the two orbitals- this is the bonding orbital

electron here _________ to the bond

One will be the __________ of the two orbitals- this is the antibonding orbital

***Remember an orbital is described by the wavefunction Ψ

Why don’t noble gasses form diatomic molecules?

Which species has the longer bond length N2 or O2?

Thing to double check when drawing MO diagrams

Did you label all the atomic orbitals?

Did you label all the molecular orbitals?

Did you remember to add the * to anti-bonding orbitals?

Did you add or subtract electrons as appropriate if you have an ion?

Did you use the proper order of orbitals for the MOs?

Heteronuclear DiatomicsInstead of the atomic orbitals adding equally, one atom’s wave function adds disproportionately.

___________ in non polar covalent bond, everything is shared equally.

__________Orbital is more B-like than A-like

Happens in polar covalent bond

e.g. CO or NO

Polyatomic Atoms

A word on what you need to be able to do for the exam

Homonuclear diatomics: everything. I should be able to give you a blank sheet of paper and ask you to draw all of the MO diagrams and you need to be able to do it complete with labels.

Heteronuclear diatomics: I draw energy levels, you make labels and fill in electrons.

Triatomic molecules: I’ll draw and label, you simply will need to be able to fill in the electrons. (I’ll use the “box style notation when drawing so you know how many electrons can be held in orbital”)

eyes see reflected green light

“Van der Waals Forces”

Umbrella term for Dipole-dipole, dipole-induced dipole and dispersion forces.

Sometimes used as an umbrella term for all intermolecular forces

Shouldn’t be used when I ask for “Which molecular forces are present in this molecule?”

Boiling Point

Boiling Point/Melting Point ExamplesRank the following by increasing Boiling and Melting point name the forces each have:

Ar, He, Ne, Xe

PH3, N2, CH4, H2O

Explain the followingBr2 has a lower melting point than NaBr

C2H5OH has a higher boiling point than butane, C4H10

H2O has a higher boiling point than H2Te

Acetic acid has a lower boiling point than benzoic acid

Does this mean all H bonded molecules have higher bp/mp than non H bonded?
