# Departmental Problems for Chapters 9 and 10: Chemical Bonding

### 1. Draw 3-D pictures showing the bonding in the following molecules. Your picture should clearly show both sigma and pi overlaps of orbitals (see page 453 in your text for a few examples). Label all σ-bonds and π-bonds.

- **a.** \( \text{N}_2 \)
- **b.** \( \text{CH}_2\text{O} \) (C is the central atom)
- **c.** The given structure features a central carbon atom double-bonded to another carbon atom, with two hydrogen atoms bonded to each carbon atom. 

  \[
  \text{H} \quad \text{H}
  \quad \backslash \quad \; / 
  \quad \text{C} = \text{C} 
  \quad / \quad \backslash \quad
  \text{H} \qquad \text{H}
  \]

- **d.** For molecule (c) above, do all four hydrogen atoms lie in the same plane? If not, what is their spatial relationship?

### 2. Indicate whether the following molecules are linear, planar, or neither linear nor planar. Then indicate the hybridization of the central atoms.

- **a.** \( \text{Cl} \)
  
  \[
  \text{Cl} \quad \text{-}
  \quad 
  \text{Cl}
  \quad \text{-}
  \quad 
  \text{Cl}
  \]

- **b.** 

  \[
  \text{:N} \equiv \text{C}
  \quad
  \text{-}
  \quad
  \text{C} \equiv \text{N:}
  \]

- **c.**

  \[
  \text{F} - \text{C} = \text{C} - \text{F}
  \]

### 3. Circle all atoms that must be coplanar with the indicated atom (*) in each of the following molecules.

- Structure featuring an atom labeled with a star:

  \[
  \text{H}
  \quad
  \text{|}
  \quad
  \text{C}^* 
  \rightleftharpoons
