1st shell n=1 has how many orbitals

1 1s orbital

Second shell contains?

1 s and 3 p orbitals


2s 2p 2px 2py 2pz

Third shell contains ?

1s orbital 3p orbital and 5d orbitals

Valence electron

Occupying the highest energy shells

Core electron

Occupying the lower energy shells

Covalent bond

Sharing of electrons between two or more atoms

Bond length

Double bonds are shorter and stronger than single bonds and triple bonds are shorter and stronger than double bonds

Polar covalent bonds and ionic bonds

Electron bonds are not always shared equally when atoms have a moderate difference in electronegativity they are considered polar covalent bonds when they have large differences in electronegativity they can be considered ionic bonds

Electronegativity

Increases on the periodic table from left to right in the same column from bottom to top

Polar bonding

Results in partial charges results from differences in electronegativity

Nonpolar bonds

Little to no difference in electronegativity of the atom

Ionic bonding

If the difference is more than two and electronegativity it becomes ionic

Formal charge and oxidation state

To determine formal charge each pair of electrons in a covalent bond is split evenly between the two atoms bonded together


To determine oxidation States each pair of electrons that make up a covalent bond is assigned to the more electronegative atom
