2 Covalent Bonding and Orbital Overlap -Lewis structures and VSEPR do not explain how a bond forms. -VSEPR predicts the shape of a molecule, but it does not explain how the molecule is put together. -One method to explain bonding would be Valence Bond Theory: -Bonds form when atomic orbitals on atoms overlap. -Two electrons are shared by the orbital overlap.

Chapter 104 Hybrid Orbitals sp Hybrid Orbitals -Consider BeF 2 - Be has a 1s 2 2s 2 electron configuration. -There is no unpaired electron available for bonding. -We could promote and electron from the 2s orbital on Be to the 2p orbital to get two unpaired electrons for bonding. -The F-Be-F bond angle is 180 (VSEPR theory). -BUT the geometry is still not explained.
5
Chapter 105 Hybrid Orbitals sp Hybrid Orbitals -We can solve the problem by allowing the 2s and one 2p orbital on Be to mix or form two hybrid orbitals (process called hybridization). - The hybrid orbitals come from an s and a p orbital and is called sp hybrid orbital.
6
Chapter 106 Hybrid Orbitals sp Hybrid Orbitals -The two sp hybrid orbitals are 180 apart. -Since only one of the Be 2p orbitals has been used in hybridization, there are two unhybridized p orbitals remaining on Be.
7
Chapter 107 Hybrid Orbitals - Other hybrids can be formed by mixing additional p and/or d orbitals

Chapter 109 Hybrid Orbitals

Chapter 1010 Hybrid Orbitals Summary To assign hybridization: -draw a Lewis structure -assign the electron pair geometry using VSEPR theory -from the electron pair geometry, determine the hybridization
11
Chapter 1011 Multiple Bonds -Bonds - electron density lies on the axis between the nuclei. -Bonds - electron density lies above and below the plane of the nuclei. -A double bond consists of one -bond and one -bond -A triple bond has one -bond and two -bonds - -bonds come from unhybridized p orbitals.

Chapter 1015 Molecular Orbitals -Some aspects of bonding are not explained by Lewis structures, VSEPR theory and hybridization. -For these molecules, we use Molecular Orbital Theory (MO theory). -Just as electrons in atoms are found in atomic orbitals, electrons in molecules are found in molecular orbitals.
16
Chapter 1016 Molecular Orbitals The Hydrogen Molecule -When two AOs overlap two MO’s form. -One molecular orbital has electron density between nuclei ( , bonding MO); -One molecular orbital has little electron density between nuclei ( *, antibonding MO).

Chapter 1020 Molecular Orbitals The Hydrogen Molecule -MO diagram shows the energies and orbitals in an MO diagram. -The total number of electrons in all atoms are placed in the MO’s starting from lowest energy ( 1s ) and ending when you run out of electrons. -Note that electrons in MO’s have opposite spins. -H 2 has two bonding electrons. -He 2 has two bonding electrons and two antibonding electrons.
21
Chapter 1021 Molecular Orbitals Bond Order Define Bond Order = ½( bonding electrons - antibonding electrons ). Bond order = 1 for single bond. Bond order = 2 for double bond. Bond order = 3 for triple bond. Bond order for H 2 = ½( bonding electrons - antibonding electrons ) = ½(2 - 0) = 1. Therefore, H 2 has a single bond. Bond order for He 2 = ½( bonding electrons - antibonding electrons ) = ½(2 - 2) = 0. Therefore He 2 is not a stable molecule.
22
Chapter 1022 Second-Row Diatomic Molecules AO’s combine according to the following rules -The number of MO’s equals the number of AO’s -AO’s of similar energy combine -As overlap increases, the energy of the MO decreases -Pauli: each MO has at most two electrons -Hund: for degenerate orbitals, each MO is first occupied singly.
23
Chapter 1023 Molecular Orbitals from 2p Atomic Orbitals -There are two ways in which two p orbitals overlap -end on so that the resulting MO has electron density on the axis between nuclei ( orbital) -sideways so that the resulting MO has electron density above and below the axis between nuclei ( orbital). -The p-orbitals must give rise to 6 MO’s: one and two ’s one * and two *’s -The relative energies of these and - orbitals can change.
