nd order depends on the number of electrons being shared in a covalent bond and is one way of comparing bond strengths. A single bond a bond order of one, a double bond has a bond order of 2, a triple bond has a bond order of 3, and resonance between a single bond and ouble bond has a bond order between 1 and 2. The higher the bond order, the greater the bond strength and the shorter the length of bond. scratch paper, which you do not need to turn in, draw the structural formula for each species in the table below. Then refer to your uctural formulas to complete the table by telling whether or not each species has resonance and the bond order of the Si-O bonds in each ecies. Then rank the species from 1 through 4 in increasing order of Si-O bond strength, for with 1 for the species with the lowest bond ength and 4 for the species with the greatest bond strength.

Formal Charges
Formal charges have an important role in organic chemistry since this concept helps us to know whether an atom in a molecule is neutral/bears a positive or negative charge. Even if some molecules are neutral, the atoms within that molecule need not be neutral atoms.
Polarity Of Water
In simple chemical terms, polarity refers to the separation of charges in a chemical species leading into formation of two polar ends which are positively charged end and negatively charged end. Polarity in any molecule occurs due to the differences in the electronegativities of the bonded atoms. Water, as we all know has two hydrogen atoms bonded to an oxygen atom. As oxygen is more electronegative than hydrogen thus, there exists polarity in the bonds which is why water is known as a polar solvent.
Valence Bond Theory Vbt
Valence bond theory (VBT) in simple terms explains how individual atomic orbitals with an unpaired electron each, come close to each other and overlap to form a molecular orbital giving a covalent bond. It gives a quantum mechanical approach to the formation of covalent bonds with the help of wavefunctions using attractive and repulsive energies when two atoms are brought from infinity to their internuclear distance.
![Question # 15. Bond Strengths and Lengths.
Bond order depends on the number of electrons being shared in a covalent bond and is one way of comparing bond strengths. A single bond
has a bond order of one, a double bond has a bond order of 2, a triple bond has a bond order of 3, and resonance between a single bond and
a double bond has a bond order between 1 and 2. The higher the bond order, the greater the bond strength and the shorter the length of
the bond.
On scratch paper, which you do not need to turn in, draw the structural formula for each species in the table below. Then refer to your
structural formulas to complete the table by telling whether or not each species has resonance and the bond order of the Si-O bonds in each
species. Then rank the species from 1 through 4 in increasing order of Si-O bond strength, for with 1 for the species with the lowest bond
strength and 4 for the species with the greatest bond strength.
