trigonal planar shape
sp2 = 3 bonds, bond angle 180 Bonding -3 nonbonding -0 120 degrees. E.g. BF3
Trigonal Pyramidal
3 bonds, 1 lone pair
formal charge calculation
=number valence electrons-bonding-number of lone pair
Guidelines for resonance contribution of canonical structures
Major contributors should: 1) Structures w/max octets 2) Charges on atoms should match relative EN 3) Structures w/less separation of opposite charge
Hybrid Orbital: sp
Involves 2 electron groups. A hybrid between one s and p orbital.
sp2 hybrid orbital
1/3 of an s orbital 2/3 of an p orbital 120 degrees trigonal planar
SP3 hybrid orbital
composition - 1 s and 3 p orbitals = 4 sp3 orbitals tetrahedral - 109.5o
π bonds are
sideway parallel overlap of pure p orbitals
