Document Summary

A bond dipole points from a less electronegative atom to a more electronegative atom. Electronegativity increases diagonally up the periodic table from fr to f. An atom with more s-character is more electronegative. For the atoms joined in a bond, increasing s-character corresponds to a stronger & shorter bond. Fc = group # - # bonds - # non-bonding e- Fc = 6 - 3 - 2 = +1. More acidic molecules have more stable conjugate bases. Acid/base reactions lie to the side of the more stable conjugate base and weaker acid. The conjugate base is more stable than the base. Factors that stabilize the conjugate base: atom effect, hybridization effect. **take note of the important unusual exception: terminal alkynes (pka 25) are more acidic than amines (pka 35) (9) Alkane nomenclature: identify the parent - the longest continuous carbon chain, name it based on the number of carbon atoms.
