Description

This short text is intended for first year undergraduates and introduces some concepts of chemical bonding in a clear, descriptive and essentially non-mathematical fashion. This text will find a place alongside textbooks containing more detailed formal coverage and mathematical descriptions. This book could form the basis of a 8-12 lecture introductory course on chemmcal bonding. The book addresses aspects of atomic orbital structure and uses this to develop a discussion of the bonding in diatomic and polyatomic molecules using Lewis dot structures, hybrid orbital, and molecular orbital methods. The prediction of molecular shape is addresses through the VSEPR method.

Table of Contents

• 1. Atomic structure
• 2. Lewis molecular structures
• 3. Diastomic molecules
• 4. Molecular geometry: VSEPR rules
• 5. Hybrid orbital description of bonding
• 6. The MO approach and polyatomic molecules
• Reading list
• Index
• Periodic table
