Week 11: Section B
This week we will continue our discussion of molecular bonding. We will learn how to turn our two dimensional Lewis structures into to three dimensional molecular geometries. By the end of the week we will be able to apply and analyze four theories of molecular bonding: Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion theory, Valence Bond theory, Hybrid Orbitals, and Molecular Orbital Theory.
Homework #10 is posted on Mastering Chemistry and it covers chapter 8. It is due on Wednesday at midnight.
