Covalent Bonds and Lewis Structures

To start off...
Yesterday, the class did not have enough time to completely go over covalent bonding, so we finished the notes today (posted in the unit 7 notes folder). In addition we redid yesterdays homework about Lewis Structures in class, to serve as a good review about Lewis Structures. Finally Mrs. Friedmann began the worksheets "What is a Bond?" which we are suppose to complete for homework.

Notes Review...
- Here is a good review about Lewis Structures from one of the Crash Courses Videos...



Here are the exceptions to the octet rule discussed today...
- Hydrogen needs 2 electrons not 8
- Boron needs 6 electrons not 8
- Everything including the third period and down the periodic table can hold more than 8 electrons if it has to.


Homework..
1) Finish the "What is a Bond?" pair of worksheets we began in class today.  Due tomorrow.

2) WebAssign 7.1a-Covalent Bonding and LED -- due tonight by 11:59 pm.

3) Watch the two videos posted in the Unit 7 box:  "Covalent Bonding" and "Bonding Models and Lewis Structures".  Take notes on both videos in your journals, to be checked in tomorrow.

4) Quiz tomorrow on bonding and Lewis Structures!
