IB Bonding cont. Flashcards
VBT
1 electron from each atom form a covalent bond
2 electron total within the “bond orbital”
higher overlap of orbitals
stronger bond
HYBRIDIZATION
atomic orbitals to form bond orbitals
hybrid orbitals are only form in
bonding (shape is still a probability function
hybrid orbitals uses energy from
intermediate energy between s and p (even d)
linear would have which hybridization
sp
trig. planar would have which hybridization
sp2
tetrahedral would have which hybridization
sp3
sp3 hybridization
electron domain geometry has a central atoms that is sp3 hybridized
sigma bonds location
centre of electron density in along the internuclear axis
SIGMA BOND
covalent bond
end-to-end ocerlap of bond orbitals
sp2 hybridization
molecules with 3 centres of electron density
PI BOND
2 lobes of electron density above and below the internuclears axis side-by-side overlap of 2 unhybridized p orbitals
what does pi bond do
restricts bond rotation, gives rigidity to the molecule
double bond has how many bonds
1 sigma and 1 pi
