Bond Line Structures and Atomic Orbitals Flashcards
Hat needs to be included and what can be excluded in bond line structures?
Non-zero formal charges need t be included but lone pairs can be excluded
What is the degree for zigzags?
120 degrees
What is the degree for triple bonds?
180 degrees
What do electrons have that is represented by a wave equation?
Wave-like properties
When do electrons occur and what happens to energy here?
Electrons occur at discrete energy levels and energy is quantized
What is the shape of the s-orbital?
It is spherical
What are the different phases of the p-orbital?
Z, y and x
What are the p-orbitals in the same shell?
Within the same shell they are the same energy so they are degenerate
What is Aufbau’s principle?
The lowest energy shell is filled first
What is the Pauli exclusion principle?
Each orbital can have up to 2 electrons of opposite spins
What is Hunds rule?
When adding in degenerate orbitals, one electron is placed in each orbital before pairing
