Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The hybrid orbital that will result from the interaction shown is to be derived. Whether the resulting orbital will be different from the ones shown in Figures 3-9a and 3-9b is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Orbitals from the same atom can mix to form two or more hybrid orbitals. The number of hybrid orbitals formed is the same as the number of orbitals that mix. When an s and a p orbital mix, they form two hybrid orbitals, oriented at

Do not consider any resonance contributors of this molecule.arrow_forwardConsider the incomplete orbital representation of O2 , below right. a. Identify which lobes are hybrid orbitals (identify the type) and which lobes arep orbitals. b. Use dotted lines to show any bonds. c. Use up or down arrows to show electron occupation of each hybrid orbital or bond.arrow_forward
- Diazomethane has the formula H2CN2. Draw all valid resonance contributors for diazomethane and, using Table 1-3, propose which one contributes more to the resonance hybrid. Hint: There are no structures that avoid charged atoms.arrow_forwardWhich whould you expect to be more polar a C-O or a C-F bond?. Explain pleasearrow_forwardI dont understand. Select the bonds in the 3D representation of thymine below that are multiple bonds. (Hint: Consider the number of bonds attached to an atom in the image compared to the normal valence of that atom. In a valid structure, the number of bonds to an atom will equal the valence of that atom.)arrow_forward
