All right stop, collaborate and listen
Organic Chem is back with a brand new edition
Carbon, can hold bonds tightly
Let's do hybridization all day and nightly
What kind of bonds Yo?
Sigma and Pi
Trivalent, divalent they make you cry,
Carbon!
Four valence electrons could be a carbene by the way they are positioned
Tips!
Draw a box around the carbon that booms
Circle En (electrons) pairs like a group of mushrooms
Draw!
Nonbonding electrons
Don't forget about them pesky protons
Count the number of atoms attached to the box
Don't forget the E pairs, they rock!
If there is a problem
Yo, I'll solve it
Check out the book while my group resolves it
CHORUS: Organic Chem baby (x4)
Now that your heart is thumping
If your answer is four then sp3 is bumping
This tetrahedral is a 109 degrees
We are killing these problems like chopping down trees
With the sum of three, its sp2
What's this tribunal planar, is it new?
When your answer is two, with a 180 degrees
Linear it may be, I mean PLEASE!
Rollin, through chapter one
Don't you see hybridization is full of fun
Sigma bonds overlap two atoms along the line
Did you stop?
No, fly between the nuclei
Pi, is a sideways overlap
And we are not talking about your lunchtime snack.
