  3. Lecture 2.6 – Orbital Hybridization

  4. Today’s Learning Targets • LT 2.7 – I can explain how the overlapping of orbitals with unpaired electrons leads to the creation of covalent bonds and hybrid orbitals. I can explain how sp, sp2, and sp3orbitals are created and identify a compound as containing one of these types of hybridization.

  5. Valence – Bond Theory • While the discussions we have had about bonding has been correct, how can we explain this using quantum mechanics? • Valence Bond Theory – Atoms bond when electron densities are concentrated between the two atoms nuclei. Bonding occurs when valence orbitals of each atom overlap.

  6. Quick Write • Draw the Lewis structure for CF4. Predict the electron domain geometry and the molecular geometry of the compound.

  7. Consider Carbon… • Carbon’s valence electron configuration looks like:

  8. Consider Carbon… • If these form bonds with fluorine as predicted, then 3 of the bonds would have a higher energy than the 4th bond in the s orbital. • The s and p orbitals “mix” in order to form new orbitals that have equal energy • They form sp3 orbitals that allow for bonding to occur

  9. Consider Carbon…

  10. Orbital Hybridization • Hybrid Orbitals – The orbitals of an atom can “mix” to form new shapes • These orbitals have a new energy level that is a mixture of the two old energy levels.

  11. sp3 Hybrid Orbitals • Occur when 3 p orbitals and 1 s orbital mix • The 4 sp3 orbitals then arrange themselves such that a tetrahedral shape is formed.

  12. sp Hybrid Orbitals • Form when the central atom mixes 1 s and 1 p orbital to form 2 sp hybrid orbitals. • Arranged in a linear shape and able to form 2 new bonds • INSERT BeF2 PICTURE

  13. sp2 Hybrid Orbitals • Occur when 2 p and 1 s orbital mix to form new shapes • Hybrid orbitals arrange in a trigonal planar shape and 3 new bonds can form

  14. Molecules with Lone Pairs • Central atoms often have lone pairs on them. • These electron pairs are put in their own hybrid orbitals. • Example: H2O

  15. Quick Way to Remember Number of Hybrid Orbitals

  16. Class Example • Determine the orbital hybridization of the central atom for NH2 –

  17. Table Talk • Determine the orbital hybridization for SO32–

  18. dsp3 and d2sp3 Hybridization • For compounds with expanded Octets, d orbitals are hybridized.
