  • Why Sharing Electron FormsCovalent Bond?

    Without Electrons, Internuclei Repulsion Forces PushesNuclei Apart.

    Sharing Electrons (in some area around the nuclei)Generates Attractive Force to Bind Nucleus Together.

  • Why Sharing Electron Forms Anti-Bond?

    In Some Area, Sharing Electrons Generates RepulsiveForce.

  • Bonding and AntibondingRegion Around The Nuclei has Binding (bonding) andAntibinding (antibonding) Zones.

  • Spherical Boundary Surface of s and pOrbitals

  • Spherical BoundarySurface of dOrbitals

  • Spherical Boundary Surface of fOrbitals

  • Valence Bond TheoryVB Theory is a quantum mechanical model

    describes the distribution of electrons in bonds.Developed from Lewis theory and the VSEPR model.

    Usually provides bonding picture with localized view.Simple VB theory cannot explain bonding in

    polyatomic molecules. The concept of Hybridizationis developed to explain different geometry variations.Describes molecular geometry easier.

    Using Delocalization and Resonance to explainextended distribution of electrons over many atoms ina substance.

  • Constructive and DestructiveInterference

  • HybridizationLinear Combination of Atomic Orbitals of an Atom

    forms a new set of orbitals.Hybridization divides the electron density distribution

    of an atom into new areas.

    (sp)A = (1/2)1/2((s) +(p)) (sp)B = (1/2)1/2((s) -(p)) (sp2)A = (1/3)1/2(s) + (2/3)1/2(px) (sp2)B = (1/3)1/2(s) - (1/6)1/2(px) + (1/2)1/2(py) (sp2)C = (1/3)1/2(s) - (1/6)1/2(px) - (1/2)1/2(py) (sp3)A = (1/2)((s) +(px) +(py) +(pz)) (sp3)B = (1/2)((s) +(px) -(py) -(pz)) (sp3)C = (1/2)((s) -(px) +(py) -(pz)) (sp3)D = (1/2)((s) -(px) -(py) +(pz))

  • Molecular Orbital Theory

    Electrons occupy orbitals that spread through the entiremolecule.Providing bonding pictures with non-localized view.Deals with entire area surrounding a molecule.

  • Rules of Molecular Orbitals

    Rules for forming bonding and antibonding MOsnumber of total molecular orbitals = number of total atomic orbitalsatomic orbitals have the right symmetryatomic orbitals overlap wellatomic orbitals have similar energy

    Rules for filling electrons are the same for MOs and AOs.start filling from the lowest energy orbitalfollows Pauli exclusion principle and Hund's rule

    Provides molecular energy informationExplains magnetic behaviorCan provide molecular structural explanation, but moredifficult to comprehend than VB theory
