9.1 Orbitals and Theories of Chemical Bonding 1. Which one of the statements concerning valence bond (VB) and molecular orbital (MO) bond theories is correct? a) MO theory predicts that electrons are localized between pairs of atoms. b) In VB theory‚ bonding electrons are delocalized over the molecule. c) MO theory accurately describes bonding in O2 and NO‚ VB theory does not. d) VB theory can describe molecular bonding in excited states. e) MO theory is used to accurately predict

* Cube In geometry‚ a cube is a three-dimensional solid object bounded by six square faces‚ facets or sides‚ with three meeting at each vertex. As the volume of a cube is the third power of its sides ‚ third powers are called cubes‚ by analogy with squares and second powers. A cube has the largest volume among cuboids (rectangular boxes) with a given surface area. Also‚ a cube has the largest volume among cuboids with the same total linear size (length+width+height). * Parts:

Combustible Liquids (Examples: alcohols‚ esters‚ ethers‚ ketones) Vapors from flammable and combustible liquids can mix with air and burn if they contact an ignition source. Possible ignition sources include hot electrical wires‚ hot surfaces‚ open flames‚ hot particles and embers‚ and sparks. The lowest temperature at which a liquid releases enough vapor to start burning is called the flash point. The flash point is what distinguishes a flammable liquid from a combustible liquid. Flammables:

Liquid Chromatography – Laboratory #18 Introduction: We are using liquid chromatography to separate the colored substances in grape-flavored drinks. We separate the component dyes‚ and then we separate the flavorings and citric acids. Background: Chromatography is a process that is used to separate a substance into its component parts. The separation occurs between the stationary and moving phase of the lab. The moving phase consists of a fluid and the stationary phase consists of a solid

Should there be Separate Sex Classrooms? Emily Dodson 5/1/11 Period 7 In 2000‚ a concerned principal at Thurgood Marshall Elementary school in Seattle Washington was alarmed by the amount of office referrals he was seeing daily as well as the poor standings his school was in‚ in comparison to national standards. Through one simple change he reported: “Overnight. The change in the atmosphere happened overnight.”(Wright). There was no need for new teachers‚ new kids‚ or a new curriculum

solution C ABSTRACT Liquid C and solid C were both extracted from unknown solution by first using chemically active liquid-liquid extract‚ followed by vacuum filtration. Liquid C and solid C were then purified with the use of simple distillation and recrystallization respectively. Through the process of recrystallization‚ the percentage purity of solid C was found to be 6.01%. The melting point range of purified solid C was 117.0 – 119.0C while the boiling point of liquid C was found to be 117C
