Chapter 13 I: Valence Bond Theory • Valence Bond Theory • Bonding theories • Hybridization
Bonding Theories • Lewis structures & VSEPR do not explain: -how a bond forms -what orbitals involved in bonding • A bonding theory can answer these questions • Two bonding theories widely used: • Valence Bond Theory (VBT) • Molecular Orbital Theory (MOT)
Valence bond theory (VBT) • Major assumptions of VBT: • Bonds form when orbitals on atoms overlap • Two electrons of opposite spin in the orbital overlap region 1s orbital of H atom with 1 e- 1s orbital of H atom with 1 e- 2 e-s in the overlap region- 3
74 pm Valence bond theory • According to this model 1s orbitals of each atom overlap to form the H-H bond Electrons with opposite spins 4
Valence bond theory (VBT) Problem: Simple overlap of atomic orbitals do not produce the observed shape of molecules
1s orbitals of H py orbital of C px orbital of C Valence bond theory • According to the e- configuration C can form 2 bonds Doesn’t work!! Cannot get the shape of CH4 molecule out of this! 6
Valence bond theory • Example – CH4 • C is the central atom • Valence e- configuration of C 2s22px12py1 2pz0 Experiments show 4 equivalent C-H bonds • How can these 4 bonds be obtained? 7
Valence bond theory • How can C get 4 orbitals to overlap with 4 H 1s orbitals &give a tetrahedral shape? • Answer: Consider hybrid orbitals for C • What are hybrid orbitals? • 4 pure atomic orbitals (2s, 2px, 2py, & 2pz) of C are mixed 4 equivalent hybridatomic orbitals are produced 8
Valence bond theory s + px + py + pz 4 equivalent hybrid orbitals Each is called sp3 hybridorbital 9
Hybridization s + px + py + pz 4 equivalent hybrid orbitals Each is calledsp3 hybridorbital VSEPR EGG for 4 orbitals tetrahedral 10
+ 1 4 s p sp3 Hybridization • Each sp3 hybrid orbital: • is an atomic orbital • has mixed s & p character • has 25% s & 75% p character 11
2p 2sp3 energy 2s Unhybridized Hybridized Hybridization • To explain why carbon forms four identical single bonds assume the original orbitals will blend together 12
Hybridization Four sp3 hybrid orbitals of carbon Overlap of sp3 Orbitals of carbon With 1s orbitals of H One sp3 hybrid orbital 13
Hybridization: Ammonia • Example – Ammonia (NH3) • 4 e- groups4 sp3 orbitalstetrahedral EGG • 3 bonding & 1 unshared e- groups • trigonal pyramidal geometry 14
Hybridization: Water 4 e- groups tetrahedral EGG 4 sp3 orbitals Two lone pairs & two bond pairs 15
sp3 hybrids sbond 1s orbital of H C-C single bonds Example: Ethane (CH3CH3) s bond - formed by an endwise (head-on) overlap 16
Double bond (bond order of 2) • Example: Ethene (CH2CH2) H H C C H H • Each C has 3 e- groups trigonal planar EGG Need 3 equivalent orbitals 17
Double bond • To get 3 equivalent hybrid orbitals: s + px + pz sp2 + sp2 + sp2 • Best EGG for three orbitals trigonal planar • Each sp2 hybrid orbital overlaps with one H 1s orbital 18
2p 2p 2sp2 energy 2s Unhybridized Hybridized Double bond • For trigonal planar EGG three sp2 hybrids • One p orbital remains 19
C C Double bond • What happens to the remaining unhybridized p orbitals on each C? • The two p orbitals overlap side-to- side • Result formation of a second bond (pi) bond p orbitals A p bond is a sideways overlap that occurs both above and below the plane of the molecule H H H H 20

Triple bond (bond order of 3 ) • Example: Ethyne (CHCH) H C C H • Each C has 2 e- groups linear EGG Need 2 equivalent orbitals 24
Triple bond • To get 3 equivalent hybrid orbitals: s + px sp + sp • Best EGG for two orbitals linear • Each sp hybrid orbital overlaps with one H 1s orbital 25
2p 2p energy 2sp 2s Unhybridized Hybridized sp hybrid orbital • For linear EGG need two sp hybrids • Two p orbitals remain unhybridized 26
sp hybrid orbital Now two p orbitals are available to form p bonds. H H 27
Bonding in ethyne sp hybrid p overlaps 29
Multiple bonds: a summary • -Bonds: electron density lies on the axis between the nuclei • All single bonds are -bonds • -Bonds: electron density lies above & below the plane of the nuclei • A double bond consists of one -bond & one -bond • A triple bond has one -bond & two -bonds • The p-orbitals involved in -bonding come from unhybridized orbitals 30
Hybrid orbitals: a summary • d orbitals can also be involved in the formation of hybrid orbitals • Hybrid Shape • sp Linear • sp2 Trigonal planar • sp3 Tetrahedral • sp3d Trigonal bipyramidal • sp3d2 Octahedral 32
