Clicker Question Imagine the bond formed in the carbon monoxide molecule (C-O). Which atom would you expect to have a greater attraction for the electrons in the bond? a) carbon b) oxygen c) They have the same attraction (both have n=2 as highest energy level with an electron). d) I do not know.
Clicker Question Rank the following bonds from least polar to most polar: Si-Cl P-Cl Mg-Cl S-Cl A) S-Cl, P-Cl, Mg-Cl, Si-Cl B) P-Cl, S-Cl, Si-Cl, Mg-Cl C) Mg-Cl, Si-Cl, P-Cl, S-Cl D) Mg-Cl, S-Cl, P-Cl, Si-Cl E) S-Cl, P-Cl, Si-Cl, Mg-Cl
From the Periodic Table… • Electron configurations • Charges for ions in compounds (and thus formulas for compounds) • Trends • Atomic radius • Ionization energy • Electronegativity • Polarity of Bonds
Former Clicker Question The following chemical reaction releases heat: A2 + B2 2AB. This means: more stable higher average bond energies a) Reactants Reactants b) Reactants Products c) Products Products d) Products Reactants e) I do not know.
Lewis Structures • Determine the total number of valence electrons in the molecule. • Form at least one bond between atoms in the molecule (a pair of electrons is a bond) • Arrange the rest of the electrons (in pairs) to satisfy the octet rule or duet rule (for hydrogen). • Watch for exceptions.
