| octahedral geometry |
answer
| • Four X atoms at the vertices of a square, and atom A at the center of the square. • Four Equatorial Bonds: Bonds between atom A and X atoms (Xeq) at the vertices of the square. • One X atom above and another below the plane of the square. • Two Axial Bonds: Bonds between atom A and X atoms (Xax) above/below the plane of the square. • Bond Xax Xeq Xeq angles: • ?XeqAXeq = 90°. • ?XeqAXax = 90°. ?X AX 180° A X Xeq eq Xeq 90 ? • XaxAXax = 180°. • Examples: SF6 |

question
| region of high electron density (hed); identify individual regions of hed |
answer
| electron geometries -Each single, double, or triple bond is 1 region of hed. • each lone pair is 1 region of hed. • each unpaired electron (odd # of valence electrons) is 1 region of hed. 4) If more than arrangement of lone and bonding electron pairs is possible, select the arrangement which minimizes lone pair repulsions. • Trigonal bipyramidal: Place lone pairs in equatorial positions before axial positions. • Octahedral: Place the first lone pair in any one of the six equivalent regions of hed. Place the second lone pair opposite the first lone pair. 5) The molecular geometry (structure) is the arrangement of only atoms around the central atom, and is given in the following table. |

question
| dipole moment |
answer
| A measure of the polarity of a molecule Scheme #1 • Electron rich region has a partial negative charge (? -). • Electron poor region has a positive charge(x+ ). |

question
| How to figure out if an atom is polar or nonpolar |
answer
| if dipole = 0, nonpolar molecule if dipole > 0, polar molecule -if all regions around the central atom are identical, the bond is nonpolar. -if regions of hed are non identical then the atom is polar. |

question
| valence bond (vb) theory |
answer
| Theory of covalent bonding which describes a chemical bond as being formed by the overlap of: 1) Two atomic orbitals (s, p, d, f…), one from each atom of the bond. 2) Two hybrid orbitals. 3) An atomic orbital and a hybrid orbital. |

question
| sigma bond |
answer
| A bond formed by the overlap of atomic or hybrid orbitals in which the shared electron density is concentrated directly along the internuclear axis between the two nuclei involved in bonding. • All single bonds are sigma bonds. |

question
| pi bond |
answer
| A bond formed by the sideways overlap of a pair of unhybridized p orbitals, which concentrates electron density in two separate regions that lie on opposite sides of the internuclear axis between the two nuclei involved in bonding. |
