35. Structure and Bonding in Alkenes

36. Structure of Ethylene bond angles: H-C-H = 117° H-C-C = 121° bond distances: C—H = 110 pm C=C = 134 pm planar

37.      Bonding in Ethylene Framework of  bonds Each carbon is sp 2 hybridized

38. Bonding in Ethylene Each carbon has a half-filled p orbital

39. Bonding in Ethylene Side-by-side overlap of half-filled p orbitals gives a  bond which makes it very difficult to rotate about the C=C bond

40. Isomerism in Alkenes

41. IsomersIsomers Isomers are different compounds that have the same composition (numbers and kinds. of atoms). Since the compounds are different, they must have different structures in the way the atoms are connected or arranged in space

57. Chlorodifluoromethane is achiral

58. The two structures are mirror images, but are not enantiomers, because they can be superposed on each other. Chlorodifluoromethane is achiral
