During our lectures on polymeric materials, I used polyethylene as an example because of its very straightforward structure. (a.) Ethylene (C2H4) is a colorless flammable gas. Draw a diagram to show what a single molecule of this gas looks like. Show all bonds with the following symbol (—). Recall that the bonds are highly covalent in nature.
A paper published in the research Journal Science in 2007 (S. Vallina and R. Simo, Science, Vol. 315, p. 506, January 26, 2007) reported studies of dimethylsulfide (DMS), an important green-house gas that is released by marine phytoplankton. This gas represents the largest natural source of atmospheric sulfur and a major precursor of hygroscopic (i.e., cloud-forming) particles in clean air over the remote oceans, thereby acting to reduce the amount of solar radiation that crosses the atmosphere and is absorbed by the ocean. (a) Sketch the Lewis structure of dimethylsulfide, CH3SCH3, and list the bond angles in the molecule. (b) Use electronegativities to decide where the positive and negative charges lie in the molecule. Is the molecule polar? (c) The mean seawater concentration of DMS in the ocean in the region between 15 north latitude and 15 south latitude is 2.7 nM (nanomolar). How many molecules of DMS are present in 1.0 m3 of seawater?

a) Using Valence Bond Theory,NOT VSEPR, thoroughly show how silicon is able to form four identical atomic orbitals available for bonding in the compound SiF4. Be sure todiscuss bond angles/shape. b) Draw and name the correct orbitals involved when a Si atom and four F atoms come together to form SiF4. Your drawing should clearly show “before” and “after” forming the bonds. Draw the orbitals as clearly as you can, but you only have to show the orbitals for ONE of the Si—F bonds being formed -- don’t draw all four.

Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) has been used as an anti-inflammatory rub for racehorses. DMSO and acetone appear to have similar structures, but the C“O carbon atom in acetone is planar, while the S“O sulfur atom in DMSO ispyramidal. Draw Lewis structures for DMSO and acetone, predict the hybridizations and explain these observations.
