Tonight you should be prepared to do what we did in class.
lewis dot structures and chemical structures for the following molecules:
O2, nitrogen gas, CO2, H2O NH3, C2H6, CH3OH
Also, you should know about VSEPR theory and how it shapes nmolecules, especially water to make it polar, and why carbon with no VSEPR electron pairs becomes nonpolar. Know how symmetry plays a role.
In chapter 3 prepare yourself by reading about the many properties of water and why they are due to polarity.
Make flash cards of these properties and define them.
cohesion
adhesion
surface tension
high specific heat
heat of evaporation/evaporative cooling
heat of fusion
universal solvent
