WebQuest
Atomic Orbitals and Bonding – Sigma and Pi Bonds
Process
As the target of this web quest are college students andor adults, thus, it is assumed that you already know
the basics of the topic before you try the web quest.
the basics of the topic before you try the web quest.
Start working on getting all the information from the online resources provided.
1. The first resources you will utilize are the Word documents which give you the background knowledge, so
to say, for the topic. Download the 2 documents (Resources 1 & 2), read them thoroughly and makes notes.
to say, for the topic. Download the 2 documents (Resources 1 & 2), read them thoroughly and makes notes.
2. Next, follow a link (Resource 7) to a webpage that gives more explanations regarding sigma and pi bonds.
Read the information given in them and also makes notes about what you have learnt.
Read the information given in them and also makes notes about what you have learnt.
3. Consecutively, watch a YouTube video that further explains what a sigma and pi bond is, and how
to identify them in a chemical structure( Resource 3).
to identify them in a chemical structure( Resource 3).
4 After that, you will watch another YouTube video (Resource 4) that implicitly shows the s and p orbitals and would seriously
help you in imagining the orbital overlaps that result in sigma and pi bonds.
5. You will then utilize the interactive nature of 2 flash animations. The first flash animation (Resource 5) will help you in
broadening your knowledge of how/why sigma and pi bonds are formed. The second animation (Resource 6) will elaborate
on hybridization to explain formation of chemical bonds. In the second animation, you will only interact with
the first 3 options, that is, the sp, sp2, and sp3 orbital explanations.
6 Once all the aforementioned tasks have been completed, attempt the online quiz in the Quiz page
to test your knowledge. Each student will do this quiz separately. Everything in this quiz is from the web
quest, so nothing new will be tested. Please fill in your name and press the Submit Answers button after
you have completed the quiz.
