2. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach2 Structure Determines Properties! properties of molecular substances depend on the structure of the molecule the structure includes many factors, including: the skeletal arrangement of the atoms the kind of bonding between the atoms  ionic, polar covalent, or covalent the shape of the molecule bonding theory should allow you to predict the shapes of molecules

3. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach3 Molecular Geometry Molecules are 3-dimensional objects We often describe the shape of a molecule with terms that relate to geometric figures These geometric figures have characteristic “corners” that indicate the positions of the surrounding atoms around a central atom in the center of the geometric figure The geometric figures also have characteristic angles that we call bond angles

4. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach4 Using Lewis Theory to Predict Molecular Shapes Lewis theory predicts there are regions of electrons in an atom based on placing shared pairs of valence electrons between bonding nuclei and unshared valence electrons located on single nuclei this idea can then be extended to predict the shapes of molecules by realizing these regions are all negatively charged and should repel

5. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach5 VSEPR Theory electron groups around the central atom will be most stable when they are as far apart as possible – we call this valence shell electron pair repulsion theory since electrons are negatively charged, they should be most stable when they are separated as much as possible the resulting geometric arrangement will allow us to predict the shapes and bond angles in the molecule

6. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach6

7. 7 Electron Groups the Lewis structure predicts the arrangement of valence electrons around the central atom(s) each lone pair of electrons constitutes one electron group on a central atom each bond constitutes one electron group on a central atom regardless of whether it is single, double, or triple there are 3 electron groups on N 1 lone pair 1 single bond 1 double bond

8. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach8 Molecular Geometries there are 5 basic arrangements of electron groups around a central atom based on a maximum of 6 bonding electron groups  though there may be more than 6 on very large atoms, it is very rare each of these 5 basic arrangements results in 5 different basic molecular shapes in order for the molecular shape and bond angles to be a “perfect” geometric figure, all the electron groups must be bonds and all the bonds must be equivalent for molecules that exhibit resonance, it doesn’t matter which resonance form you use – the molecular geometry will be the same

9. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach9 Linear Geometry when there are 2 electron groups around the central atom, they will occupy positions opposite each other around the central atom this results in the molecule taking a linear geometry the bond angle is 180°

10. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach10 Linear Geometry

11. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach11 Trigonal Geometry when there are 3 electron groups around the central atom, they will occupy positions in the shape of a triangle around the central atom this results in the molecule taking a trigonal planar geometry the bond angle is 120°

12. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach12 Trigonal Geometry

13. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach13 Not Quite Perfect Geometry Because the bonds are not identical, the observed angles are slightly different from ideal.

14. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach14

15. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach15 Tetrahedral Geometry when there are 4 electron groups around the central atom, they will occupy positions in the shape of a tetrahedron around the central atom this results in the molecule taking a tetrahedral geometry the bond angle is 109.5°

17. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach17 Methane

18. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach18 Trigonal Bipyramidal Geometry when there are 5 electron groups around the central atom, they will occupy positions in the shape of a two tetrahedra that are base-to-base with the central atom in the center of the shared bases this results in the molecule taking a trigonal bipyramidal geometry the positions above and below the central atom are called the axial positions the positions in the same base plane as the central atom are called the equatorial positions the bond angle between equatorial positions is 120° the bond angle between axial and equatorial positions is 90°

21. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach21

22. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach22 Octahedral Geometry when there are 6 electron groups around the central atom, they will occupy positions in the shape of two square-base pyramids that are base-to-base with the central atom in the center of the shared bases this results in the molecule taking an octahedral geometry it is called octahedral because the geometric figure has 8 sides all positions are equivalent the bond angle is 90°

23. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach23 Octahedral Geometry

24. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach24 Octahedral Geometry

25. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach25

26. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach26 The Effect of Lone Pairs lone pair groups “occupy more space” on the central atom because their electron density is exclusively on the central atom rather than shared like bonding electron groups relative sizes of repulsive force interactions is: Lone Pair – Lone Pair > Lone Pair – Bonding Pair > Bonding Pair – Bonding Pair this effects the bond angles, making them smaller than expected

27. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach27 Effect of Lone Pairs The bonding electrons are shared by two atoms, so some of the negative charge is removed from the central atom. The nonbonding electrons are localized on the central atom, so area of negative charge takes more space.

28. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach28 Derivative Shapes the molecule’s shape will be one of basic molecular geometries if all the electron groups are bonds and all the bonds are equivalent molecules with lone pairs or different kinds of surrounding atoms will have distorted bond angles and different bond lengths, but the shape will be a derivative of one of the basic shapes

29. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach29 Derivative of Trigonal Geometry when there are 3 electron groups around the central atom, and 1 of them is a lone pair, the resulting shape of the molecule is called a trigonal planar - bent shape the bond angle is < 120°

30. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach30 Derivatives of Tetrahedral Geometry when there are 4 electron groups around the central atom, and 1 is a lone pair, the result is called a pyramidal shape because it is a triangular-base pyramid with the central atom at the apex when there are 4 electron groups around the central atom, and 2 are lone pairs, the result is called a tetrahedral-bent shape it is planar it looks similar to the trigonal planar-bent shape, except the angles are smaller for both shapes, the bond angle is < 109.5°

Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach52 Representing 3-Dimensional Shapes on a 2-Dimensional Surface one of the problems with drawing molecules is trying to show their dimensionality by convention, the central atom is put in the plane of the paper put as many other atoms as possible in the same plane and indicate with a straight line for atoms in front of the plane, use a solid wedge for atoms behind the plane, use a hashed wedge

60. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach60 Polarity of Molecules in order for a molecule to be polar it must 1)have polar bonds  electronegativity difference - theory  bond dipole moments - measured 2)have an unsymmetrical shape  vector addition polarity affects the intermolecular forces of attraction therefore boiling points and solubilities  like dissolves like nonbonding pairs affect molecular polarity, strong pull in its direction

71. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach71 Problems with Lewis Theory Lewis theory gives good first approximations of the bond angles in molecules, but usually cannot be used to get the actual angle Lewis theory cannot write one correct structure for many molecules where resonance is important Lewis theory often does not predict the correct magnetic behavior of molecules e.g., O 2 is paramagnetic, though the Lewis structure predicts it is diamagnetic

72. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach72 Valence Bond Theory Linus Pauling and others applied the principles of quantum mechanics to molecules they reasoned that bonds between atoms would arise when the orbitals on those atoms interacted to make a bond the kind of interaction depends on whether the orbitals align along the axis between the nuclei, or outside the axis

73. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach73 Orbital Interaction as two atoms approached, the partially filled or empty valence atomic orbitals on the atoms would interact to form molecular orbitals the molecular orbitals would be more stable than the separate atomic orbitals because they would contain paired electrons shared by both atoms the interaction energy between atomic orbitals is negative when the interacting atomic orbitals contain a total of 2 electrons

75. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach75 Valence Bond Theory - Hybridization one of the issues that arose was that the number of partially filled or empty atomic orbital did not predict the number of bonds or orientation of bonds C = 2s 2 2p x 1 2p y 1 2p z 0 would predict 2 or 3 bonds that are 90° apart, rather than 4 bonds that are 109.5° apart to adjust for these inconsistencies, it was postulated that the valence atomic orbitals could hybridize before bonding took place one hybridization of C is to mix all the 2s and 2p orbitals to get 4 orbitals that point at the corners of a tetrahedron

76. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach76 Unhybridized C Orbitals Predict the Wrong Bonding & Geometry

77. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach77 Valence Bond Theory Main Concepts 1. the valence electrons in an atom reside in the quantum mechanical atomic orbitals or hybrid orbitals 2. a chemical bond results when these atomic orbitals overlap and there is a total of 2 electrons in the new molecular orbital a)the electrons must be spin paired 3. the shape of the molecule is determined by the geometry of the overlapping orbitals

78. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach78 Hybridization some atoms hybridize their orbitals to maximize bonding hybridizing is mixing different types of orbitals to make a new set of degenerate orbitals sp, sp 2, sp 3, sp 3 d, sp 3 d 2 more bonds = more full orbitals = more stability better explain observed shapes of molecules same type of atom can have different hybridization depending on the compound C = sp, sp 2, sp 3

79. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach79 Hybrid Orbitals H cannot hybridize!! the number of standard atomic orbitals combined = the number of hybrid orbitals formed the number and type of standard atomic orbitals combined determines the shape of the hybrid orbitals the particular kind of hybridization that occurs is the one that yields the lowest overall energy for the molecule in other words, you have to know the structure of the molecule beforehand in order to predict the hybridization

80. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach80 Orbital Diagrams with Hybridization place electrons into hybrid and unhybridized valence orbitals as if all the orbitals have equal energy when bonding,  bonds form between hybrid orbitals and  bonds form between unhybridized orbitals that are parallel

91. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach91 Types of Bonds a sigma (  ) bond results when the bonding atomic orbitals point along the axis connecting the two bonding nuclei either standard atomic orbitals or hybrids  s-to-s, p-to-p, hybrid-to-hybrid, s-to-hybrid, etc. a pi (  ) bond results when the bonding atomic orbitals are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the axis connecting the two bonding nuclei between unhybridized parallel p orbitals the interaction between parallel orbitals is not as strong as between orbitals that point at each other; therefore  bonds are stronger than  bonds

92. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach92

93. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach93

94. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach94 Bond Rotation because orbitals that form the  bond point along the internuclear axis, rotation around that bond does not require breaking the interaction between the orbitals but the orbitals that form the  bond interact above and below the internuclear axis, so rotation around the axis requires the breaking of the interaction between the orbitals

125. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach125 Molecular Orbital Theory in MO theory, we apply Schrödinger’s wave equation to the molecule to calculate a set of molecular orbitals in practice, the equation solution is estimated we start with good guesses from our experience as to what the orbital should look like then test and tweak the estimate until the energy of the orbital is minimized in this treatment, the electrons belong to the whole molecule – so the orbitals belong to the whole molecule unlike VB Theory where the atomic orbitals still exist in the molecule

126. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach126 LCAO the simplest guess starts with the atomic orbitals of the atoms adding together to make molecular orbitals – this is called the Linear Combination of Atomic Orbitals method weighted sum because the orbitals are wave functions, the waves can combine either constructively or destructively

127. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach127 Molecular Orbitals when the wave functions combine constructively, the resulting molecular orbital has less energy than the original atomic orbitals – it is called a Bonding Molecular Orbital ,  most of the electron density between the nuclei when the wave functions combine destructively, the resulting molecular orbital has more energy than the original atomic orbitals – it is called a Antibonding Molecular Orbital  *,  * most of the electron density outside the nuclei nodes between nuclei

130. Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach130 MO and Properties Bond Order = difference between number of electrons in bonding and antibonding orbitals only need to consider valence electrons may be a fraction higher bond order = stronger and shorter bonds if bond order = 0, then bond is unstable compared to individual atoms - no bond will form.
