Constitutional isomers

Answer 8

Molecules have the same number and types of atoms as each other, with different connections between them.

Question 9

Valence bond theory

Answer 9

The idea that all bonds are localized bonds formed between two atoms by the donation of an electron from each atom.

When atoms can completely rotate around the axis of a bond

Question 19

Pi bonds

Answer 19

Orbitals line up next to each other in a sideways formation

Question 20

Geometric Isomers

Answer 20

Molecules have the same number, types, and connections between atoms, but they are spatially arranged in a different way.

Question 21

D orbital shape

Answer 21

2 figure 8s overlapping in a plus

Question 22

Hydrogen bonds definition

Answer 22
