Hello,

In metallic bonds, the valence electrons from the s and p orbitals of the interacting metal atoms delocalize. That is to say, instead of orbiting their respective metal atoms, they form a “sea” of electrons that surrounds the positively charged atomic nuclei of the interacting metal ions.

Hope this helps!!!! Happy Holidays!!!! (:

In the compound iodine heptafluoride: (hints: write out the molecular formula of this compound before answering the question. Also be sure you clearly understand the concepts of charge, oxidation numbers, how to determine charge and oxidation numbers, and - most important of all! - the similarities and the differences between charges and oxidation numbers)

<h3>What is iodine heptafluoride?</h3>

The interhalogen compound iodine heptafluoride, often known as iodine(VII) fluoride or iodine fluoride, has the chemical formula IF7. As anticipated by VSEPR theory, it exhibits a unique pentagonal bipyramidal structure. The molecule is capable of undergoing the Bartell process, a pseudorotational rearrangement that is similar to the Berry mechanism but for a heptacoordinated system. It produces colorless crystals that melt at 4.5 °C and have a very narrow liquid range with a boiling point of 4.77 °C. The dense mist has an unpleasant, musty smell. The molecule is symmetrical with D5h. suggestion

Which of the species below can act as a lewis base? bf3 nf3 oh− alcl3?

IRINA_888 [86]

Among BF₃, NF₃, OH⁻ and ALCl₃ both NF₃ and OH⁻ acts as a lewis base.

Explaination:
According to lewis theory of acid and base, base is a specie which has either lone pair of electrons or is negatively charged. So, in the given compounds Nitrogen trifluoride contain lone pair of electron on nitrogen and Hydroxide contains a negative charge on oxygen. And botha are capable to donate these electrons to a lewis acid (electrophiles).
