Description
1.) (Introduction) Classify the elements in the periodic table, describe types of bonds and compounds they can form.
2.) Describe sigma and pi bonds, single double, and triple covalent bonds. Explain the process of orbital hybridization during formation of covalent bonds, types of hybridization, supply an example of a compound with each type of hybridization including Lewis dot structure.
3.) Describe VSEPR model, provide details about electron geometry and molecular geometry, provide examples of molecules with every type of geometry.
4.) Choose one non-polar molecule and one polar molecule. Both molecules have to be nonlinear and not coplanar. Draw Lewis Dot Structure for each molecule, describe type of orbital hybridization, electron and molecular geometry, calculate electronegativity difference for each bond, classify it using its value, and determine whether molecule is polar or nonpolar.
5.) Using the non-polar and polar molecule from above, explain its dipole interaction, along with positive and negative sides of the molecule.
Explanation & Answer
Kindly see attached file with a detailed answer to the different questions
Elements in the periodic table are classified into:
-
-
-
Metals: These elements, located at the left side of the periodic table, have low
electron affinity and low ionization potential. According to their atomic structure, they
can either lose one or more electrons to reach a stable structure of a noble gas (s2p6),
therefore being converted into cations, or share the electrons in their valence band
through the formation of a metallic bond.
Non metals: These elements, located at the right side of the periodic table, have high
electron affinity and high ionization potential. According to their atomic structure,
they can either attract one or more electrons to reach a stable structure of a noble gas
(s2p6) therefore being converted into anions, or share the electrons in their valence
band through the formation of a covalent bond.
Noble gases: Due to their extremely low reactivity, noble gases constitute a special
group of elements. Except for the heaviest ones (e.g. xenon), they do not form any
