1st SEMESTER - 2 Flashcards
VSEPR Theory
Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion Theory.
Linus Pauling
He showed mathematically how an s orbital and p orbitals can combine to form four equivalent atomic orbitals.
Dispersion Forces
Weakest interaction between non polar covalent molecules produced through “temporary dipoles”.
Resonance property
Migration of electrons and shows stability of a molecule.
How does sp hybrid orbitals form?
sp hybridized orbitals form when one s orbital and one p orbital overlaps forming a sigma overlap.
What is the product of hybridization?
Hybrid Orbitals
Define melting point.
Temperature at which particles of solid is changed to liquid through application of heat.
Sigma overlap between one s orbital and three p orbitals.
sp3 hybrid orbitals
Hybridization between alkyne molecules.
sp hybridization
Bond angle and shape of sp3 hybridization
105-110 degrees, tetrahedral
Intramolecular Forces
Chemical bonds present between atoms.
sp2 hybridization
Happens when one s orbital overlap with two p orbitals.
_________________ is inversely proportional to bond length.
Bong strength
He introduced the concept of electronegativity.
Linus Pauling
Hybridization of alkenes.
sp2 hybridization
sp3 hybridization
Overlap between s atomic orbital and three p orbitals.
How many pi bonds and sigma bonds present in an sp hybridization of carbon? How about sp3? How about sp2?
sp - 2 pi bonds, 2 sigma bonds
sp3 - no pi bond, 4 sigma bonds
sp2 - 1 pi bond, 3 sigma bonds
H - Bond
When hydrogen act as a bridge between two most electronegative atoms.
Define surface tension and its relationship with intermolecular forces.
The liquids ability to resist spreading out. The higher the intermolecular force between atoms, the higher the surface tension.
Force between polar molecules. Usually in liquids.
Dipole-Dipole
Sublimation
Ability of solid to change to gas without undergoing the liquid phase.
Volatility
Describes how readily a substance vaporizes that vary by the number of hydrogen bonds present between molecules.
The more _________ the molecule is, the lower the dispersion forces.
Sperical
Bond angle of sp hybridized atoms.
180 degrees; linear
