Answer:
Please see the attached pictures.
Explanation:
☆ To ensure that each carbon has 4 bonds, fill the other bonds with Hs.
The answer is D. (2,2,2,1)
Answer:
The correct answer is - (4) 1s2 2s2 2p5 3s2
Explanation:
An excited state is a state when the valence electron has moved to some other higher energy orbital, from its ground state orbital. The ground state has a lower energy level or sublevel. In this case, the higher energy level orbit fills before the lower energy level.
In option 4, the last electron is filled in higher energy orbit 3s2 before filling the lower or ground energy level 2p5, in the ground state it would be 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1 instead of 1s2 2s2 2p5 3s2.
Thus, the correct answer is option 4.
Answer:
Option 4. There's no hydrogen bonding between HBr molecules at all.
Explanation:
<h3>SiH₄</h3>
SiH₄ molecules are tetrahedral and symmetric. Dipoles due to the polar Si-H bonds balance each other. SiH₄ molecules are nonpolar. Only instantaneous dipoles are possible between those molecules.
<h3>C₆H₆ Benzene</h3>
Similar to SiH₄, benzene is symmetric. Dipoles due to the weakly polar C-H bonds balance each other. Benzene molecules are nonpolar. Only instantaneous dipoles are possible between those molecules.
<h3>NH₃</h3>
There are two conditions for hydrogen bonding to take place:
- H atoms are directly bonded to a highly electronegative element: Nitrogen, Oxygen, or Fluorine.
- There is at least one lone pair of electrons nearby.
Consider the Lewis structure of NH₃. There are three H atoms in each NH₃ molecule. Each of the three H atoms is bonded directly to the N atom with a highly polar N-H bond. Also, there is a lone pair of electrons on the N atom. Hydrogen bonding will take place between NH₃ molecules.
NH₃ is a relatively small molecule. As a result, hydrogen bonding will be the dominant type of intermolecular force between NH₃ molecules.
<h3>HBr</h3>
There are three lone pairs on the Br atom in each HBr molecule. However, no H atom is connected to any one of the three highly electronegative elements: N, O, or F. The Br atom isn't electronegative enough for the H atom to form hydrogen bonding. HBr molecules are polar. As a result, the dominant type of intermolecular forces between HBr molecules will be dipole-dipole interactions (A.k.a. permanent dipole.)
<h3>CaO</h3>
Calcium is a group 2 metal. Oxygen is one of the three most electronegative nonmetal. (Again, the most electronegative elements are: Nitrogen, Oxygen, and Fluorine.) As a main group metal, Ca atoms tend to lose electrons and form positive ions. Oxygen will gain those electrons to form a negative ion. As a result, CaO will be an ionic compound full of Ca²⁺ and O²⁻ ions. Forces between ions with opposite charges are called ionic bonds.
