Name _______________________________ Section 9.6 Review Q’s a) Sketch a bond that is constructed from orbitals. p σ b) Sketch a bond that is constructed from orbitals. p π a) How many and bonds are generally part of a double bond? σ π b) How many and bonds are generally part of a triple bond? σ π a) Draw Lewis structures for methane, CH4, and formaldehyde, H2CO. b) What is the hybridization of the carbon atom in CH4 and H2CO? c) The carbon atom in CH4 cannot participate in multiple bonding, whereas that in H2CO can. Explain this observation using the hybridization at the carbon atom.
