4. Silicon is an interesting atom because it behaves similarly to carbon. There is speculation in the scientific field that aliens could be made of silicon structures rather than carbon. The following structures are silicon versions of important carbon signaling molecules in our body. 1.) What is the electron geometry and hybridization for each of these structures? H-Si-H H-H Silane Silanone Silicon Dioxide e geometry: e geometry: hybridization: e geometry: hybridization: hybridization: 2.) Based on what you have described above, match the orbital diagram below with the correct molecule above:
What is the hybridization of the carbon atom indicated with a star in the given structure?
Which statements accurately describe sigma bonds? Sigma bonds can only result from the overlap of two p orbitals. Sigma bonds only form when regions of orbitals with different signs overlap. Sigma bonds are symmetric about the internuclear axis. Sigma bonds result from the overlap of orbitals in only one region of space. Sigma bonds result from the overlap of orbitals in two regions of space. Sigma bonds cannot rotate without interfering with orbital overlap. A sigma bond could result from the sideways (as opposed to head-on) overlap of two p orbitals. Sigma bonds only form when regions of orbitals with the same sign overlap.
