24Predicting Molecular Geometry
- Draw Lewis structure for molecule.
- Count number of lone pairs on the central atom
and number of atoms bonded to the central atom. - Use VSEPR to predict the geometry of the molecule.

32Sharing of two electrons between the two atoms.
Valence bond theory bonds are formed by sharing
of e- from overlapping atomic orbitals.

36Hybridization mixing of two or more atomic
orbitals to form a new set of hybrid orbitals.
- Mix at least 2 nonequivalent atomic orbitals
(e.g. s and p). Hybrid orbitals have very
different shape from original atomic orbitals. - Number of hybrid orbitals is equal to number of
pure atomic orbitals used in the hybridization
process. - Covalent bonds are formed by
- Overlap of hybrid orbitals with atomic orbitals
- Overlap of hybrid orbitals with other hybrid
orbitals

Molecular orbital theory bonds are formed from
interaction of atomic orbitals to form molecular
orbitals.

52Energy levels of bonding and antibonding
molecular orbitals in hydrogen (H2).
A bonding molecular orbital has lower energy and
greater stability than the atomic orbitals from
which it was formed.
An antibonding molecular orbital has higher
energy and lower stability than the atomic
orbitals from which it was formed.

57Molecular Orbital (MO) Configurations
- The number of molecular orbitals (MOs) formed is
always equal to the number of atomic orbitals
combined. - The more stable the bonding MO, the less stable
the corresponding antibonding MO. - The filling of MOs proceeds from low to high
energies. - Each MO can accommodate up to two electrons.
- Use Hunds rule when adding electrons to MOs of
the same energy. - The number of electrons in the MOs is equal to
the sum of all the electrons on the bonding atoms.
