Chemistry 111 1st Edition Exam # 2 Chapters 5-6Chapter 5 Bond AngleAngle (degrees) defined by lines joining the centers of two atoms to the center of a third atom to which they are covalently bondedVESPR TheoryA model predicting that the arrangement of valence electron pairs around a central atom minimizes repulsion to produce the lowest energy orientationElectron Pair Geometry3-dimensional arrangement of bonding e- pairs and lone pair electrons about a central atomMolecular Geometry3-dimensional arrangements of atoms in a moleculeTwo atoms bonded to central atom linear (180 degrees)Three atoms bonded to a central atom trigonal planar (120 degrees)4 atoms bonded to central atom tetrahedral (109.5 degrees)5 atoms bonded to central atom trigonal bipyramidal (90 to 120 degrees)6 atoms bonded to central atom octahedral (90 degrees)Bond DipoleSeparation of electrical charge created when atoms with different EN form a covalent bondPolar MoleculeSum of bond dipole vectors > zeroSigma BondCovalent bond having highest electron density between the two atoms along the bond axis. All bonds are sigma bonds. In a double or triple bond, one of the bonds is a sigma bond.Pi BondParallel p orbitals form pi bonds. A single bond is always a sigma bond, but a double bond has a sigma and a pi bondHybridizationMixing of atomic orbitals to generate new sets of equivalent orbitals that form covalent bonds with other atomsSp= 2 groups Sp2 = 3 groupsSp3= 4 groupsSp3d= 5 groupsSp3d2 = 6 groupsChapter 6Dispersion (London) ForcesIntermolecular force between nonpolar molecules caused by the presence of temporary dipolesin the molecules. (Nonpolar + Nonpolar molecules) every bond has dispersion forcesTemporary Dipole (Induced Dipole)Separation of charge produced in an atom or molecule by a momentary uneven distribution of electronsPolarizabilityRelative ease with which the electron cloud in a molecule, ion, or atom can be distorted, inducing a temporary dipoleSize of Atoms/MoleculesLarger atoms/molecules more polarizable than smaller atoms/smaller. Dispersion increases withpolarizabilityShape of MoleculesIncreased surface area = increased interactions between molecules. Linear molecules have higher dispersion than branched molecules of similar molecular weightDipole-DipoleAttractive force between polar moleculesHydrogen BondStrongest dipole-dipole interaction. Occurs between H atom bonded to a small, highly electro negative element (F, O, N) and an atom of oxygen O or N in another moleculeIon-DipoleAttractive force between an ion and a molecule that has a permanent dipoleSphere of HydrationCluster of water molecules surrounding anion in aqueous medium. Sphere of solvation if solventother than H2O. Like Dissolves Like:Ionic/polar solutes will be soluble in polarsolvents.Nonpolar solutes will be soluble in
