Learning Organic Chemistry with Sibi

In this CurlyArrows 'Learn Chemistry with Sibi' Podcast, I covers the four common mistakes a beginner in chemistry makes while drawing a Hydrogen bond.
1) Number One – Choosing the Wrong Atoms
2) Number Two – Choosing the Wrong Donors and Acceptors
3) Number Three - Not Maintaining the Hydrogen Bond Angle
4) Number Four - Place incorrectly the Dipoles

In this 2-minute podcast on Hydrogen Bonding on CurlyArrows 'Learning Chemistry with Sibi', we will learn how this weak-but-mighty force works, and why it only happens with H attached to O, N, or F. Hydrogen bonding is why water is a liquid, and our DNA stays twisted in that perfect double helix.

In this podcast, we will look at how the distribution of two electrons between two atoms in a covalent bond gives rise to a bond type based on polarity, creating two variants: polar and nonpolar covalent bonds. These covalent bond types are essential in organic chemistry, as they are responsible for various molecular interactions, solubility, and transformations.

In this audio, we will cover the basic vocabulary related to acids, Lewis, Bronsted-Lowry, and Arrhenius. We will also see how the strength of an acid is measured using Ka values, and try to understand what a conjugate acid-base pair is. We will also discuss polarizability and the hard-soft acid-base concept.

The world of the atoms can seem strange and counterintuitive, governed by probability. Still, we can't help but see parallels when we try to grasp their world through the lens of our own. In the language of chemistry, lone pairs are an atom's valence shell electrons that took part in hybridization but evaded the covalent bond formation with other atoms.
Lone pair is covered in detail in the chapter Fundamentals of Organic Reactions where we discuss various bond formation theories and other covalent bond properties.
