We picked up 3 handouts which should be found in the Handouts Folder
We graded and went over our quizzes in class
We continued the notes on Molecule Polarity:
Molecule Polarity:
1) Are the bonds polar?
2) Is the molecule symmetrical?
3) Is the molecule polar?
Ex: ClO3 with a negative 1 charge
=26 valence electrons
Hybridization
To be a blend of something
Different atomic orbitals (s,p,d,f) are mixed to form new identical orbitals
Ex: SP3 orbital } A blending of orbitals
SP3D orbital }
(Proposed by Linus Pauling, it solves a big bonding problem)
What's the problem?
-The valence electrons don't fill each properly
The shape of the orbitals (doing the bonding) should look like the shape of the molecule.
THEY DON'T.
Pauling suggested that when electrons bond they are going to form a hybrid orbital to form the shape that we expect.
