Document Summary
Chapter 11: chemical bonding ii additional aspects. When two atoms are brought together there are 3 types of interactions between them: electrons are attracted to the two nuclei, electrons repel each other, the 2 nuclei repel each other. Potential energy (of electrons): the net energy of these interactions between atoms. Bonding theory should explain bond-dissociation energies, bond lengths, bond angles etc. Positive easily proposes molecular easy to apply: written quickly shapes agreement with experimental results generally in good. Negatives no quantitative information about bond no quantitative information about bond energies, lengths and angles energies, lengths and angles represent) odd-electron species problem resonance structures (not possible to. Hybrid orbitals and the valence-shell electron-pair repulsion (vsepr) theory: hybridization was introduced by linus pauling in 1931 before the vsepr theory, the ideas expressed in the vsepr theory was first introduced by h. e. 11. 4 multiple covalent bonds: two different types of orbital overlap occur when multiple bonds are described by the valence-bond method.
