Take your chemistry class' knowledge of molecular geometry to the next level! Introduce orbital hybridization with a series of related games. Individuals complete a data table in the first activity, then solve Sudoku-like puzzles using...

How is a molecule's shape determined? Explore bond angles, lone pairs, and VSEPR theory through a logic-based activity. Chemists pull together information about the major molecular shapes, then use it to solve puzzles.

In this molecular geometry and hybridization learning exercise, students identify bond angles, Lewis structures, hybridization, polarity and valance electrons in given molecules. They also label a drawn compound with hybridization and...

Though there are technically only 13 questions on this exam, they take up six pages and make a thorough assessment of organic chemistry principles. There are plenty of diagrams to label or complete. Emission spectra are displayed for...

In this polarity worksheet, students are given 5 compounds and they draw the Lewis structure for each, they identify the bond angels, they write the molecular shape and they determine the polarity of the molecules. Honors students...

In this molecular geometry and VSEPR activity, students find bond angles, hybridization, determine polarity and draw orbital box diagrams of molecules. They determine molecular geometry and bond angles of given molecules and determine...

In this covalent compounds instructional activity, high schoolers name 6 compounds given their chemical formulas, they write the formulas for 6 compounds given their chemical names and they answer questions about boiling points and...

In this creating bonds worksheet, students create 2-D and 3-D models of the molecular formula provided. Students complete a chart of information about the molecular formula given.

Students use models to visualize molecular structures. Students read about Lewis dot structures, hybridization, and formal charge. Then students build and draw the molecules and ions given. Students complete 11 pre-lab questions and 4...

Cyanide, a coordination compound, is used in the extraction of gold and silver. Part 24 in the series of 36 delves into the world of coordination compounds. Classes learn, through readings, discussions, and answering questions, how to...
