Top A level JC H2 Chemistry Tuition in Singapore ()\r
\r
Unit: Organic Chemistry \r
Topic: Introductory Topics_Hybridisation\r
\r
Pre-requisite Knowledge\r
Students should already possess the content knowledge of\r
- the shapes of s and p orbitals (Atomic Structure)\r
- covalent bonding in terms of orbital overlap, giving sigma and pi bonds (Chemical Bonding)\r
- the limitations of VSEPR theory and hence the need for the hybridization theory (Chemical Bonding)\r
\r
Learning Objectives\r
At the end of this learning package, students should be able to\r
(i) describe the 3 forms of hybridisation (sp3, sp2, sp) in methane, benzene and beryllium chloride using hybridisation theory.\r
(ii) apply the hybridization theory to explain the shapes and bond angles of molecules.\r
