Valence Bond Theory
Name two out of the three concepts of Valence Bond theory.
1. Two electrons of opposite spin can accommodate the overlapping orbitals
2. The greater the overlap of orbitals the stronger the bond
3. Hybridization
How many different types of orbital hybridization are there?
5
What is the name for a single bond due to the overlapping of two orbitals if it holds only two electrons each of the overlapping orbitals?
sigma bond
How mcuh space is an orbitals region of the probability of finding the electrons?
95%
Who proposed the orbital hybridization?
For double bonds they use two types of bonds if the 2p atomic orbitals are parallel?
sigma and pi bond
What would the bond be called, if you have hydrogen and fluorine's orbitals overlap?
H-F sigma bond
What is one thing you need to know in order to determine the hybridization?
Molecules electronic structure
Bonds can be thought of as an energy storage center, what energy will occur with a chemical reaction?
the energy required or released
It's a covalent bond that forms when the orbitals from two atoms overlap and a pair of electrons will occupy the region between the nuclei
Name all the different types of orbital hybridization?
sp, sp^2, sp^3, sp^3d, and sp^3d^2
Define Bond Dissociation Energy (D).
is the enthalpy change for breaking bonds in a molecule with the reactants and products in the gas phase under standard conditions
