Slide 1 Alkynes Slide 2 Hydrocarbons with a carbon–carbon triple bond are alkynes. Noncyclic alkynes have the molecular formula C n H 2n-2. Acetylene (HC≡ CH) is the…
Hybrid Orbitals With hybrid orbitals the orbital diagram for beryllium would look like this. The sp orbitals are higher in energy than the 1s orbital but lower than the 2p.…
Chapter 9 Covalent Bonding: Orbitals Hybridization The mixing of atomic orbitals to form special orbitals for bonding. The atoms are responding as needed to give the minimum…
Lots of multisyllabic words, I know Overlap and Bonding We think of covalent bonds forming through the sharing of electrons by adjacent atoms. In such an approach this…
Base Pairing in DNA Red = O Grey = C White = H Purple = K Ionic Radii Li+ = 0.68 Å Na+ = 0.97 Å K+ = 1.33 Å Rb+ = 1.47 Å Cavity Size (O-O Dist.) = 1.40 Å K+ fits best…
