Explore the building blocks of chemistry such as atoms, molecules, and subatomic particles, and learn about the forces at work in chemical reactions. Discover the properties of carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and hydrogen and understand their roles in the molecular shape. Dive into Lewis structures, VSEPR theory, and hybridization to understand the structure of compounds and predict their stability and properties. Discover the role of electronegativity and polarity in compounds and learn about the forces and energy involved in chemical reactions.

FORCE & ENERGY The forces at work are: Electromagnetic: Repulsion of like charges: proton-proton and electron-electronAttraction of unlike charges:proton-electron. Magnetic: Electron spin introduces magnetic forces. Electrons with opposite spins produce opposite magnetic poles. Opposite magnetic poles attract. Opposite spin is required for electrons to occupy the same orbital. N S S N

Lewis Structures • Keeps track of valence (bonding) electrons • Predicts formula for many compounds • Predicts charge of compounds • Predicts stability of compounds • Predicts molecular shape if combined with other theories. nitrate=NO3-
Why interest in Molecular Shape? δ- δ- • Predicts polar compounds (ones with ends with opposite charges) • Predicts solubility • Predicts interaction with light (link) • Predicts crystal structure δ+ δ- δ- δ+ δ- δ-
