7. Section 6.5 Molecular Geometry
OBJECTIVES:
Negative particles (electrons) repel and move away from each other. VSEPR Theory
Multiple orbitals can combine to form hybrid orbitals. Hybridization
Weak forces exist between molecules. Dipole, Hydrogen bonding, London dispersion forces

8. Chapter 6 Hybridization
Section 5 Molecular Geometry
Hybridization
VSEPR theory is useful for predicting and explaining the shapes of molecules.
A step further must be taken to explain how the orbitals of an atom are rearranged when the atom forms covalent bonds.
For this purpose, we use the model of hybridization, which is the mixing of two or more atomic orbitals of similar energies on the same atom to produce new hybrid atomic orbitals of equal energies.

9. Chapter 6 Hybridization
Section 5 Molecular Geometry
Hybridization
Take the simple example of methane, CH4. The carbon atom has four valence electrons, two in the 2s orbital and two in 2p orbitals.
Experiments have determined that a methane molecule is tetrahedral. How does carbon form four equivalent, tetrahedrally arranged, covalent bonds?
Recall that s and p orbitals have different shapes. To achieve four equivalent bonds, carbon’s 2s and three 2p orbitals hybridize to form four new, identical orbitals called sp3 orbitals.
The superscript 3 on the p indicates that there are three p orbitals included in the hybridization. The superscript 1 on
the s is left out, like in a chemical formula.

10. Chapter 6 Hybridization
Section 5 Molecular Geometry
Hybridization
The four (s + p + p + p) hybrid orbitals in the sp3-hybridized methane molecule are equivalent: they all have the same energy, which is greater than that of the 2s orbital but less than that of the 2p orbitals.
Hybrid orbitals are orbitals of equal energy produced by the combination of two or more orbitals on the same atom.
Hybridization explains the bonding and geometry of many molecules.

13. Section 6.5 Polar Bonds and Molecules

14. Polar Bonds and Polar Molecules
OBJECTIVES:
Describe how electronegativity values determine the distribution of charge in a polar molecule.
Describe what happens to polar molecules when they are placed between oppositely charged metal plates.
Evaluate the strength of intermolecular attractions compared with the strength of ionic and covalent bonds.

15. Bond Polarity Covalent bonding means shared electrons
but, do they share equally?
Electrons are pulled, as in a tug-of-war, between the atoms nuclei
In equal sharing (such as diatomic molecules), the bond that results is called a nonpolar covalent bond

16. Bond Polarity
When two different atoms bond covalently, there is an unequal sharing
the more electronegative atom will have a stronger attraction, and will acquire a slightly negative charge
called a polar covalent bond, or simply polar bond.

17. Electronegativity?
The ability of an atom in a molecule to attract shared electrons to itself.
Linus Pauling

18. Table of Electronegativities
Higher electronegativity

19. Bond Polarity Refer to Table Consider HCl H = electronegativity of 2.1
Cl = electronegativity of 3.0
The electronegativity difference: = 0.9
the bond is polar
the chlorine acquires a slight negative charge, and the hydrogen a slight positive charge

20. Bond Polarity
#1 The more electronegative atom attracts electrons more strongly and gains a slightly negative charge. The less electronegative atom has a slightly positive charge.
Table shows how the electronegativity can also indicate the type of bond that tends to form

21. Bond Polarity d+ d- #2 Written as: H Cl
Only partial charges, much less than a true 1+ or 1- as in ionic bond

d+ and d-

22. Bond Polarity H Cl #3 Can also be shown:
the arrow points to the more electronegative atom.
Table shows how the electronegativity can also indicate the type of bond that tends to form

23. Electronegativity differences/Bond Types
Electronegativity difference range
Nonpolar covalent
0.0 – 0.3
Polar covalent
>0.3 – <1.7
Ionic
>1.7

24. Polar molecules A polar bond tends to make the entire molecule “polar”
areas of “difference”
HCl has polar bonds, thus is a polar molecule.
A molecule that has two poles is called dipole, like HCl

25. Polar molecules
The effect of polar bonds on the polarity of the entire molecule depends on the molecule shape
carbon dioxide has two polar bonds, and is linear = nonpolar molecule!
Bond polarities cancel (are in opposite directions)

26. Polar molecules
The effect of polar bonds on the polarity of the entire molecule depends on the molecule shape
water has two polar bonds and a bent shape; the highly electronegative oxygen pulls the e- away from H = very polar!

27. 6.5 Practice problems p. 202 H - F H - Cl H - Br H - I
45. For each of the following polar molecules, indicate the direction of the resulting dipole:
H - F
H - Cl
H - Br

28. Polar molecules
When polar molecules are placed between oppositely charged plates, they tend to become oriented with respect to the positive and negative plates.

29. 6.5 Practice problems p. 202 H20 I2 CF4 NH3 CO2
47. On the basis of individual bond polarity and orientation, determine whether each of the following molecules would be polar or nonpolar:
H20 I2

CO2

30. Intermolecular Forces
Section 5 Molecular Geometry
Chapter 6
Intermolecular Forces
The forces of attraction between molecules are known as intermolecular forces.
The boiling point of a liquid is a good measure of the intermolecular forces between its molecules: the higher the boiling point, the stronger the forces between the molecules.
Intermolecular forces vary in strength but are generally weaker than bonds between atoms within molecules, ions in ionic compounds, or metal atoms in solid metals.
Boiling points for ionic compounds and metals tend to be much higher than those for molecular substances: forces between molecules are weaker than those between metal atoms or ions.

The strongest intermolecular forces exist between polar molecules.
Because of their uneven charge distribution, polar molecules have dipoles. A dipole is created by equal but opposite charges that are separated by a short distance.
The direction of a dipole is from the dipole’s positive pole to its negative pole.

33. Intermolecular Forces, continued

A dipole is represented by an arrow with its head pointing toward the negative pole and a crossed tail at the positive pole. The dipole created by a hydrogen chloride molecule is indicated as follows:

The negative region in one polar molecule attracts the positive region in adjacent molecules. So the molecules all attract each other from opposite sides.
Such forces of attraction between polar molecules are known as dipole-dipole forces.
Dipole-dipole forces act at short range, only between nearby molecules.
Dipole-dipole forces explain, for example the difference between the boiling points of iodine chloride, I–Cl (97°C), and bromine, Br–Br (59°C).

A polar molecule can induce a dipole in a nonpolar molecule by temporarily attracting its electrons.
The result is a short-range intermolecular force that is somewhat weaker than the dipole-dipole force.
Induced dipoles account for the fact that a nonpolar molecule, oxygen, O2, is able to dissolve in water, a polar molecule.

37. Intermolecular Forces, continued
Section 5 Molecular Geometry
Chapter 6
Intermolecular Forces, continued
Some hydrogen-containing compounds have unusually high boiling points. This is explained by a particularly strong type of dipole-dipole force.
In compounds containing H–F, H–O, or H–N bonds, the large electronegativity differences between hydrogen atoms and the atoms they are bonded to make their bonds highly polar.
This gives the hydrogen atom a positive charge that is almost half as large as that of a bare proton.

38. Intermolecular Forces, continued
Section 5 Molecular Geometry
Chapter 6
Intermolecular Forces, continued
The small size of the hydrogen atom allows the atom to come very close to an unshared pair of electrons in an adjacent molecule.
The intermolecular force in which a hydrogen atom that is bonded to a highly electronegative atom is attracted to an unshared pair of electrons of an electronegative atom in a nearby molecule is known as hydrogen bonding.

39. Intermolecular Forces
Section 5 Molecular Geometry
Chapter 6
Intermolecular Forces
Hydrogen bonds are usually represented by dotted lines connecting the hydrogen-bonded hydrogen to the unshared electron pair of the electronegative atom to which it is attracted.
An excellent example of hydrogen bonding is that which occurs between water molecules. The strong hydrogen bonding between water molecules accounts for many of water’s characteristic properties.

London Dispersion Forces
Even noble gas atoms and nonpolar molecules can experience weak intermolecular attraction.
In any atom or molecule—polar or nonpolar—the electrons are in continuous motion.
As a result, at any instant the electron distribution may be uneven. A momentary uneven charge can create a positive pole at one end of an atom of molecule and a negative pole at the other.

London Dispersion Forces, continued
This temporary dipole can then induce a dipole in an adjacent atom or molecule. The two are held together for an instant by the weak attraction between temporary dipoles.
The intermolecular attractions resulting from the constant motion of electrons and the creation of instantaneous dipoles are called London dispersion forces.
Fritz London first proposed their existence in 1930.

43. Intermolecular Attractions
They are what make solid and liquid molecular compounds possible.
Weaker than either ionic or covalent
The weakest are called van der Waal’s forces
Two kinds:
London dispersion forces
dipole interactions

44. Intermolecular Attractions
#1. London dispersion forces
- weakest force
- caused by motion of e-
- increases as # e- increases
- Increases as atomic mass increases
- only intermolecular force acting on noble gases and nonpolar molecules
-Explains Halogens: start as gases; bromine is liquid; iodine is solid – all in Group 17

45. Dipole interactions #2. Dipole-Dipole Forces
Occurs when polar molecules are attracted to each other
positive region of one molecule attracts the negative region of another molecule.
Slightly stronger than London dispersion forces.
Opposites attract, but not completely hooked like in ionic solids.

48. #3. Hydrogen bonding
…is the attractive force caused by hydrogen bonded to N, O, F, or Cl
N, O, F, and Cl are very electronegative, so this is a very strong dipole.
And, the hydrogen shares with the lone pair in the molecule next to it.
This is the strongest of the intermolecular forces.

49. #3. Hydrogen bonding defined:
When a hydrogen atom is:
a) covalently bonded to a highly electronegative atom, AND
b) is also weakly bonded to an unshared electron pair of a nearby highly electronegative atom.
The hydrogen is left very electron deficient (it only had 1 to start with!) thus it shares with something nearby
Hydrogen is also the ONLY element with no shielding for its nucleus when involved in a covalent bond!

50. Hydrogen Bonding (Shown in water)
This hydrogen is bonded covalently to: 1) the highly negative oxygen, and 2) a nearby unshared pair.

51. Hydrogen bonding allows H2O to be a liquid at room conditions.
