- hybridization - hybrid

which of the following correctly describe the conventions used when drawing a skeletal structure for an organic compound?

- it is assumed that every carbon atom has enough hydrogens to make it tetravalent - all heteroatoms are drawn and the hydrogens directly bond to them - the unlabeled end of a line represents a C atom

- polar - dipole

match the bond polarity with the correct molecular polarity - contain one polar bond, or two or more bond dipoles that reinforce each other - contain no polar bonds, or two or more bond dipoles that cancel

- polar molecules - nonpolar molecules

which of the following statements correctly describe a C-F bond.

- the bond dipole should point towards F - Carbon should be marked with a delta + symbol

which of the following statements correctly describe sp3 hybrid orbitals?

- the hybridization of one s and three p orbitals forms four sp3 hybrid orbitals - an sp3 hybrid orbital has one small and one large lobe - the 4 sp3 hybrid orbitals are intermediate in energy between the s and p orbitals from which they were formed

match the number and type of hybrid orbitals of an atom with the correct number of specific groups surrounding them - 1 triple bond and 1 lone pair - 1 double bond and 2 sigma bonds - 2 lone pairs and 2 sigma bonds

1. Draw a valid Lewis structure 2. count groups around a given atom 3. Match the number of groups with the associated geometry

explain why CO2 is a nonpolar molecule.

CO2 is linear and therefore the individual bond dipoles cancel to give no net dipole
