Study Notes

Chemical Bonding and Structure

  • Magnetic quantum numbers determine the spatial orientation of atomic orbitals.
  • Lewis electron dot diagrams display outermost electrons for bonding.
  • Polar molecules like water are good solvents; nonpolar molecules like oils aren't.
  • Polarity and cohesion are water's properties.
  • Condensation polymerization creates polymers from monomers.
  • Polyester examples are made from unsaturated hydrocarbons.
  • Chemical reactions can form condensation polymers.
  • BF3 has less than a full octet in its structure.
  • Some molecules (like O2) are diamagnetic; others are paramagnetic.
  • Carbon-carbon bonds in structures like polyester lead to high melting points.
  • Amino acids make proteins.

Types of Molecules and Reactions

  • Octet rules describe relative molecular stability.
  • Covalent compounds like CCl4 are nonpolar.
  • Starches are digested slowly.
  • CO2 is nonpolar because of symmetrical charge distribution.
  • Alcohols are R-OH.
  • Ribose and deoxyribose are RNA and DNA sugars.
  • Polymerization can form complex polymers.
  • Terylene and complex carbs have similar bonding patterns.
  • Boiling points for hydrocarbons increase with carbon chain length.
  • Dehydration synthesis joins smaller molecules (like proteins, lipids & carbs).
