This five-lesson series focuses on the geometry of molecules. Sigma and pi bonding are expanded using VSEPR theory to predict expected geometries of molecules. The structure of carbon compounds is discussed and Valence Bond Theory introduced and related to VSEPR theory. Molecular Orbital Theory is introduced and reasonableness of molecular structure is covered. Further, the concepts of bond order and paramagnetics/diamagnetism are discussed.
In addition to the video lessons included in this series, you will also get access to lesson-specific note guides that can be viewed and downloaded once this lesson is purchased. These lessons are part of a full course, College Chemistry I (Inorganic) that is available through MindBites or in DVD format from the Chemistry Professor

Below are the descriptions for each of the lessons included in the series:
-
College Chemistry 1: Geometry of Molecules 1
Sigma and pi bonding are expanded using VSEPR theory to predict expected geometries of molecules.
In addition to the full video lesson, you will also get access to a lesson specific note guide that can be viewed and downloaded once this lesson is purchased. This lesson is part of a full course, College Chemistry I (Inorganic) that is available through the series listed above or in DVD format from the Chemistry Professor’s website at http://chemistryprofessor.com/college_chemistry.htm. The full course addresses those topics recommended for inclusion in the first semester of a two semester college chemistry majors course. The essential topics covered in College Chemistry I are: measurements, calculations, matter, energy, elements, compounds, nomenclature, equations, types of reactions, the mole, stoichiometry, atomic theory, the periodic table, bonding theories, gases, liquids, solids, solutions, thermochemistry, and an introduction to oxidation-reduction. These topics are all addressed at the college level, with the understanding that students have some chemistry background. Those students with no chemistry background at all should consider Professor Etheridge’s Fundamentals of Chemistry lessons or full course prior to undertaking this college-level chemistry course.
-
College Chemistry 1: Geometry of Molecules 2
This lesson is a continuation of the Geometry of Molecules 1 lesson. It continues looking at expanding sigma and pi bonding using VSEPR theory to predict expected geometries of molecules.
