PROBLEM 10 SOLVED
Draw the Lewis structure for each of the following:
a. d. g. j. NaOHb. e. h. k.c. f. i. l.
SOLUTION TO 10a The only way we can arrange one N and three O’s and avoidsingle bonds is to place the three O’s around the N. The total number of valence
electrons is 23 (5 for N, and 6 for each of the three O’s). Because the species has one neg-ative charge, we must add 1 to the number of valence electrons, for a total of 24. We thenuse the 24 electrons to form bonds and fill octets with lone-pair electrons.
When all 24 electrons have been assigned, we see that N does not have a complete octet. Wecomplete N’s octet by using one of oxygen’s lone pairs to from a double bond. (It doesn’tmake any difference which oxygen atom we choose.) When we check each atom to seewhether it has a formal charge, we find that two of the O’s are negatively charged and the Nis positively charged, for an overall charge of

1.6 An Introduction to Molecular Orbital Theory
How do atoms form covalent bonds in order to form molecules? The Lewis model,which describes how atoms attain a complete octet by sharing electrons, tells us onlypart of the story. A drawback of the model is that it treats electrons like particles anddoes not take into account their wavelike properties.
Molecular orbital (MO) theory combines the tendency of atoms to fill their octetsby sharing electrons (the Lewis model) with their wavelike properties—assigningelectrons to a volume of space called an orbital. According to MO theory, covalentbonds result from the combination of atomic orbitals to form molecular orbitals—orbitals that belong to the whole molecule rather than to a single atom. Like an atomicorbital that describes the volume of space around the nucleus of an atom where anelectron is likely to be found, a molecular orbital describes the volume of space arounda molecule where an electron is likely to be found. Like atomic orbitals, molecular or-bitals have specific sizes, shapes, and energies.
Let’s look first at the bonding in a hydrogen molecule As the 1s atomic orbitalof one hydrogen atom approaches the 1s atomic orbital of a second hydrogen atom,they begin to overlap. As the atomic orbitals move closer together, the amount of over-lap increases until the orbitals combine to form a molecular orbital. The covalent bondthat is formed when the two s atomic orbitals overlap is called a sigma bond. A bond is cylindrically symmetrical—the electrons in the bond are symmetrically dis-tributed about an imaginary line connecting the centers of the two atoms joined by thebond. (The term comes from the fact that cylindrically symmetrical molecular or-bitals possess symmetry.)
During bond formation, energy is released as the two orbitals start to overlap, be-cause the electron in each atom not only is attracted to its own nucleus but also is at-tracted to the positively charged nucleus of the other atom (Figure 1.2). Thus, theattraction of the negatively charged electrons for the positively charged nuclei is whatholds the atoms together. The more the orbitals overlap, the more the energy decreases

until the atoms approach each other so closely that their positively charged nuclei startto repel each other. This repulsion causes a large increase in energy. We see that max-imum stability (i.e., minimum energy) is achieved when the nuclei are a certain dis-tance apart. This distance is the bond length of the new covalent bond. The length ofthe bond is 0.74
As Figure 1.2 shows, energy is released when a covalent bond forms. When thebond forms, (or 435 kJ mol)* of energy is released. Breaking the
bond requires precisely the same amount of energy. Thus, the bond strength—alsocalled the bond dissociation energy—is the energy required to break a bond, or theenergy released when a bond is formed. Every covalent bond has a characteristic bondlength and bond strength.
Orbitals are conserved—the number of molecular orbitals formed must equal thenumber of atomic orbitals combined. In describing the formation of an bond,however, we combined two atomic orbitals, but discussed only one molecular orbital.Where is the other molecular orbital? It is there, but it contains no electrons.
Atomic orbitals can combine in two different ways: constructively and destructive-ly. They can combine in a constructive, additive manner, just as two light waves orsound waves may reinforce each other (Figure 1.3). This is called a (sigma) bond-ing molecular orbital. Atomic orbitals can also combine in a destructive way, cancel-ing each other. The cancellation is similar to the darkness that occurs when two lightwaves cancel each other or to the silence that occurs when two sound waves canceleach other (Figure 1.3). This destructive type of interaction is called a antibondingmolecular orbital. An antibonding orbital is indicated by an asterisk 1*2.

The bonding molecular orbital and antibonding molecular orbital are shownin the molecular orbital diagram in Figure 1.4. In an MO diagram, the energies are rep-resented as horizontal lines; the bottom line is the lowest energy level, the top line thehighest energy level. We see that any electrons in the bonding orbital will most likelybe found between the nuclei. This increased electron density between the nuclei iswhat binds the atoms together. Because there is a node between the nuclei in the anti-bonding molecular orbital, any electrons that are in that orbital are more likely to befound anywhere except between the nuclei, so the nuclei are more exposed to one an-other and will be forced apart by electrostatic repulsion. Thus, electrons that occupythis orbital detract from, rather than aid, the formation of a bond between the atoms.

formed. The antibonding molecular orbital has three nodes. (Notice that after eachnode, the phase of the molecular orbital changes.)
Unlike the bond formed as a result of end-on overlap, side-to-side overlap of twop atomic orbitals forms a pi bond (Figure 1.6). Side-to-side overlap of two in-phase p atomic orbitals forms a bonding molecular orbital, whereas side-to-sideoverlap of two out-of-phase p orbitals forms a antibonding molecular orbital. The
bonding molecular orbital has one node—a nodal plane that passes through both nu-clei. The antibonding molecular orbital has two nodal planes. Notice that bondsare cylindrically symmetrical, but bonds are not.
The extent of overlap is greater when p orbitals overlap end-on than when theyoverlap side-to-side. This means that a bond formed by the end-on overlap of p or-bitals is stronger than a bond formed by the side-to-side overlap of p orbitals. It alsomeans that a bonding molecular orbital is more stable than a bonding molecularorbital because the stronger the bond, the more stable it is. Figure 1.7 shows a molec-ular orbital diagram of two identical atoms using their three degenerate atomic orbitalsto form three bonds—one bond and two bonds.ps

their atomic orbitals, and because electron pairs repel each other, the bonding electronsand lone-pair electrons around an atom are positioned as far apart as possible.
Because organic chemists generally think of chemical reactions in terms of thechanges that occur in the bonds of the reacting molecules, the VSEPR model oftenprovides the easiest way to visualize chemical change. However, the model is inade-quate for some molecules because it does not allow for antibonding orbitals. We willuse both the MO and the VSEPR models in this book. Our choice will depend onwhich model provides the best description of the molecule under discussion. We willuse the VSEPR model in Sections 1.7–1.13.

1.7 Bonding in Methane and Ethane: Single Bonds
We will begin the discussion of bonding in organic compounds by looking at the bond-ing in methane, a compound with only one carbon atom. Then we will examine thebonding in ethane (a compound with two carbons and a carbon–carbon single bond),in ethene (a compound with two carbons and a carbon–carbon double bond), and inethyne (a compound with two carbons and a carbon–carbon triple bond).
Next, we will look at bonds formed by atoms other than carbon that are commonlyfound in organic compounds—bonds formed by oxygen, nitrogen, and the halogens.Because the orbitals used in bond formation determine the bond angles in a molecule,you will see that if we know the bond angles in a molecule, we can figure out whichorbitals are involved in bond formation.
Bonding in MethaneMethane has four covalent bonds. Because all four bonds have the samelength and all the bond angles are the same (109.5°), we can conclude that the four
bonds in methane are identical.Four different ways to represent a methane molecule are shown here.
