Presentation Transcript

  1. Molecular Geometry and Polarity

  2. Molecular Shapes • Molecular shape determines chemical and physical properties • Electrons repel each other resulting in the molecular shape • Lone pairs are not shared between protons and therefore repel slightly more

  3. Hybridization • Atomic orbitals mix to form new identical orbitals

  4. Determine Molecular Geometry and Hybridization • BF3 • NH4+ • OCl2 • BeF2 • CF4 • CS2 • CCl2F2 • NCl3

  5. Bond Polarity • Unequal sharing of electrons due to differences in electronegativity

  6. 0 - 0.4 0.5 - 1.7 Above 1.7

  7. Molecular Polarity

  8. Molecular Polarity • Molecules that are symmetrical tend to be nonpolar covalent molecules • Molecular Dipole-the overall direction of pull on the molecule

  9. PHET Simulation • Draw the following molecules and label the dipole of the molecule

  10. Properties of Covalent Compounds • Low melting and boiling points

  11. Properties of Covalent Compounds • Many molecules exist as gases • Soft solids • Paraffin

  12. Properties of Covalent Compounds • Poor Conductors of Electricity

  13. Review Problems: pg. 272 #72, 84, 89-92, 95, 96, 97 (a-c), 98 (a, c), 99, 102, 104, 105-117odds
