Document Summary

Lecture 3- chm151 covalent bonds results form the overlap of singly bound orbitals sigma bonds- cylindrical cross-section [symmetry] this is the feature of all sigma bonds, there is a positive and negative charge; however, there must be enough energu, there is an optimal separation, they have to be a specific lengh form one another. the si unit used is pm ( picometre) 1pm=10^-12m, 1 ancstrom = 10^- another important feature of a bond, other than bond length, is the amount of energy gained by bringing them together. For instance, by brining together hydrogen bonds, you gain 436 kj/mol. so if you want to disscoaite an h2 molecule to hand h atoms, you have to supply 436 jk/mol. Lower orbitals are further apart [more repulsion], and as you go higher, the orbitals are closer tgether. The more bonds between the carbons, the stronger the bond.
