Students worked with molecule sets to build 7 molecules that have covalent bonds. Smartboard notes 11-12-10. Can you identify the seven molecules in the photos below? Click on each for a full view. Remember that black=carbon, yellow=hydrogen, blue=nitrogen, and red=oxygen. Can you draw Lewis diagrams for all seven? Can you write the formula for each molecule? Which ones are linear? bent? Which ones have single bonds, double, triple? Why is methane’s shape called a tetrahedron? How can you tell that a triple bond is stronger than a double bond?
