Simple Periodic Trends vs Complicated Periodic Trends
Simple = up & down. Based on # of shells.

Complicated = Horizontal. Often takes HCFS into account.
Formal Charge
= valence electrons - bonds(σ and ρ) - electrons in lone pairs

Each atom in a molecule has it's own formal charge

must add up to overall charge of molecule

positive formal charges should be on atoms that are less electronegative

negative formal charges should be on atoms that are more electronegative
Hybridization
count each lone pair, single bond, double bond, triple bond as one set of electrons

ex, 4 sets = s p p p = sp³
ex. 2 sets = s p = sp
ex. 5 sets = s p p p d = sp³d
Molecular Geometry
VESPR
sp = linear
sp² = trigonal planar
sp³ = tetrahedral
sp³d = trigonal bipyramidal
sp³d² = octahedral
Molecular Shape
Intramolecular Forces & their strength
Chemical Bonds - When electrons are shared between atoms

Strength is dependent on
- More electrons shared = stronger bond
- smaller atoms = shorter bond length*
+ exceptions N-N, O-O, F-F are weaker because
lone pairs repel

Stronger the bond the higher the BDE. It takes energy to break a bond. Endothermic

Polar vs. Nonpolar
Compare electronegativities for ∆EN
If difference = 0 then nonpolar
If difference > 0 then polar
Intermolecular Forces & their strength
Electrostatic attraction of atoms

Strength Depends on
- Larger charges equal stronger bonds
- Smaller particles = stronger bond*
* only important for ionic bonds

Stronger Forces have higher BDE

Breaking is endothermic
Covalent Bonds
Formed between atoms with high EN (nonmetals with nonmetals)

Electrons localized between atoms (cannot move)

Electrons donated from both atoms

Rigid (hard) insulators (because elctrons cannot move)
Metallic Bonds
metals with metals (low EN)

Electrons delocalized

Flexible. (ductile, malleable). Good conductors.
Coordinate Covalent Bonds
Lone pair shared by electron defficient atom that does not donate

electrons localized

Synonym: ligand
- chelate: more than one lone pair shared in this
manner.

Weak bond. Easily dissociated.
Ionic Bonds
opposite charged ions

localized electrons

insulator

brittle along cleavage planes

smallest atoms with greatest charge (NOT EN) are stronger bonds
Dipole Forces
Permanently Polar molecules attracted

More polar molecules (high EN difference)

Easily cleaved. Short lasting.
Dispersion Forces
Vanderwahls, induced dipoles, london.

created by deformation from collisions. Creates temporary electrostatic attraction.

more electrons = more deformation = stronger forces

Very weak. usually not even solids.
H bonds
N,O,F.
water is best.

needs donor (lone pair) and acceptor (N-H, O-H, F-H) to H bond with identical molecule
Spectrum of Relative bonds/force strengths
Covalent >Ionic>Metalic>Coordinate Covalent>H Bonds>Dipole>Induced Dipole
