Today we will look at other hybridizations, starting with the sp2 hybrid

orbital. There are three groups of electrons around each carbon in
C2H4 and each establishes the trigonal plane geometry by forming

hybrid orbitals built from one s-orbital and two p-orbitals – making sp2 sp3 sp3
orbitals in the 3-D sketch. The energy diagram below shows that

there is one p-orbital left over. That orbital will be used to make the 1s
double bond. The diagram at far right shows the lobe-like structure
with the orbitals labeled. Each has one of carbon’s four valence
electrons. The single p-orbital is shown in a blue color – remember
that the p-orbital has two lobes, but is just one orbital. p

Sections 8.5. Polar Covalent Bonds and Polar Molecules

As we learned in Section 7.3 on Chapter 7 Day 1, bonds between two atoms are polar if there is a difference in

electronegativities. Molecules with these bonds may be non-polar if polar bonds cancel each other. Suppose the green
atoms are more polar than the central atom – that’s normal… The molecule on the left is polar, and the one on the right
is non-polar because it is linear.

Anything with just two atoms is polar if the atoms are different, for example, CO is polar. Two atom molecules are non-

Sections 8.5. Polar Covalent Bonds and Polar Molecules
Some molecules have two or more “central atoms.” Happens all the time. A simple example is methylamine shown
below. It features a carbon atom in black bonded to a nitrogen atom in blue. Green atoms are hydrogen.

So the carbon atom has no E group, so is essentially non-polar, even though it’s technically AB3B’. BUT, the nitrogen
atom has an E group, making that part of the molecule polar! Let’s take another look at the black carbon atom that we
called AB4, but is actually AB3B’.

Carbon’s electronegativity is 2.5 and hydrogen’s is 2.1. This small difference makes the bond almost non-polar. One
might even say, it’s a non-polar bond. Technically wrong, but functionally accurate.

Nitrogen’s electronegativities is 3.0, so the C-N bond is only a little more polar than the C-H bond. The reason
methylamine is polar is due to the E group on nitrogen (AB3E).

Sections 8.6 Intermolecular forces (IMFs): London dispersion forces (LDF)

There are three types of intermolecular forces (forces between molecules) that we need to recognize. These do not
include ionic forces which we have discussed earlier and are much stronger – so much so that ionic materials are
usually solids at room temperature. But intermolecular forces can be significant in terms of understanding whether a
molecular covalent compound is a solid, liquid or gas.

The first IMF we will discuss is London dispersion forces (LDF). Every LDF∝ MM
molecule has these, and they are proportional (in some way) to the molar mass: Range of strengths: 1 – 10 kJ/mol

Molecules must be in almost direct contact with each other for LDF to matter. This is how it works: In large molecules
electrons “slosh” from side to side creating instantaneous dipoles in otherwise non-polar molecules:

… d+

the chlorine atoms. One of these molecules is polar and the other one isn’t. One has a boiling point of 180 oC and the

Hydrogen bonding is a funny name for an intermolecular force. They are unusually strong dipole-dipole
forces that always involve hydrogen-oxygen bonding, hydrogen-nitrogen bonding, and hydrogen-fluorine
bonding. They range in the neighborhood of 10 – 40 kJ/mol (again compare this to covalent bonding which
is ~200 – 400 kJ/mol.

We know that formal charges can help us pick the best of several electron dot structures. We did that in Chapter 7,
Day 2. We also know that elements B, C, N, O, F, and Ne cannot expand their octet like we saw for compounds like
PF5 and SF6 and a number of other fluorine-containing compounds (Chapter 7, Day 2).
