Why Carbon?
-> Carbon forms a variety of strong covalent bonds to itself and other atoms
(methane)
or (ammonia)

4. Tobacco kills more than six million people each year, translating to one
smoking-related death every five seconds. On average, smoking will cut 13 years
from your life expectancy and can directly cause cancer, heart diseases, stroke…
Tobacco smoke contains many chemicals that are harmful to both smokers and
nonsmokers. Draw the Lewis structure of the following dangerous compounds
found in tobacco smoke:

Formal Charges
If you are having trouble paying attention during a long lecture, your levels of
acetylcholine (a neurotransmitter) may be to blame. Identify any formal charges
in acetylcholine.

Bond Formation
3 categories of bonds: (1) ionic, (2) covalent and (3) polar covalent
-> Depending on electronegativity (power to attract electron)

Ionic Bonding

Covalent Bonding
Each chlorine still has three unshared pairs of electrons (lone pair) 19
Covalent Bonding: Polar vs. Nonpolar
∆EN < 0.5 ∆EN ~ 0.5-1.7 ∆EN > 1.7

Principles of Atomic Structure
Dense, positively
• Proton: positive
charged nucleus
• Neutron: neutral contains most of
atom’s mass.
• Electron: negative
Negatively charged
electron cloud makes
up most of atom’s
Wade page 2, 2009 volume.
3 principles:
• Aufbau principle - electrons occupy orbitals with the lowest energy first.
• Pauli exclusion principle - only two electrons can occupy one atomic orbital and
the two electrons have opposite spin.
• Hund’s rule - electrons will occupy empty, degenerate orbitals with before pairing
up another electron

Formation of H2
Constructive interaction:
2 waves combine and
reinforce each other
𝜎 bonding MO
Destructive interaction:
2 waves combine and
oppose each other
𝜎 ∗ antibonding MO

Formation of H2
In stable compounds, bonding orbitals are filled and antibonding orbitals are empty
