exam 2 information

Exam 2 Objectives: Be able to
1	Discuss the main ideas from the Laboratory. In particular: Answer questions about the principles behind the Gas Law experiment; Determine the formula of a hydrated salt given data similar to that obtained in the laboratory; Apply the lessons learned from the Molecular Structures exercise (excluding naming and identifying functional groups).
2	Discuss electronegativity and determine relative electronegativities, and use EN to predict qualitatively the degree of ionic character in a bond.
3	Draw Lewis Structures for polyatomic ions and complex molecules which obey the octet rule.
4	Draw and discuss resonance forms.
5	Determine and discuss bond orders.
6	Discuss polar and nonpolar covalent bonds.
7	Discuss and determine bond strengths given reaction enthalpy changes and other bond energies.
8	Discuss alkenes and alkynes and the common reactions they undergo (combustion and addition across the multiple bonds).
9	Discuss the polymerization of alkene monomers to produce polymers and vice versa.
10	Discuss and determine molecular geometries using VSEPR Theory. Facts from Table 10.1 should be mastered and remembered.
11	Discuss polar and nonpolar molecules, predicting overall molecular polarity from VSEPR treatment.
12	Discuss Valence Bond theory and predict bonding using this theory.
13	Identify the hybridization of carbons (and other atoms in carbon's period) in molecules.
14	Sketch bonding schemes (see Example 10.7c on pages 438-440).
