Look at this compound, why does magnesium has dative and covalent bonds with nitrogen? ...?
HACTEHA [7]
<span>The solid lines between N and Mg are actually ionic bonds. N has 5 valence electrons (2 of which are paired). Of the 3 that are unpaired, 2 are part of covalent bonds with adjacent carbon atoms. N accepts an extra electron to complete its octet, but gets a formal charge of -1. This allows for formation of an ionic bond with Mg, which is +2. Two of these charged N atoms therefore neutralize the charge of the central Mg. As for the coordinate (dative) covalent bonds, Mg has empty orbitals - the ionic bonds with the charged N atoms give it only 4/8 possible valence electrons.


The other two N atoms (dotted lines) have a formal charge of 0 since they form three covalent bonds with adjacent carbon atoms, but they still have a lone pair. Therefore, just to improve stability, each of these N atoms can "donate" its lone pair to Mg in order to complete its octet.


I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly. We hope to answer more of your questions and inquiries soon. Have a nice day ahead!

Explain why the atomic number is called the fingerprint of element
Dovator [93]

Answer:

No element shares the same atomic number. The atomic number of every element is unique to itself, just like a fingerprint is unique to a human. The atomic number of element allows us to identify it, like how we can identify a person from their fingerprint.

Use the given data at 500 K to calculate ΔG°for the reaction
Anton [14]

Answer : The  value of \Delta G^o for the reaction is -959.1 kJ

Explanation :

The given balanced chemical reaction is,

2H_2S(g)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2H_2O(g)+2SO_2(g)

First we have to calculate the enthalpy of reaction (\Delta H^o).

\Delta H^o=H_f_{product}-H_f_{reactant}

\Delta H^o=[n_{H_2O}\times \Delta H_f^0_{(H_2O)}+n_{SO_2}\times \Delta H_f^0_{(SO_2)}]-[n_{H_2S}\times \Delta H_f^0_{(H_2S)}+n_{O_2}\times \Delta H_f^0_{(O_2)}]

where,

\Delta H^o = enthalpy of reaction = ?

n = number of moles

\Delta H_f^0 = standard enthalpy of formation

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

\Delta H^o=[2mole\times (-242kJ/mol)+2mole\times (-296.8kJ/mol)}]-[2mole\times (-21kJ/mol)+3mole\times (0kJ/mol)]

\Delta H^o=-1035.6kJ=-1035600J

conversion used : (1 kJ = 1000 J)

Now we have to calculate the entropy of reaction (\Delta S^o).

\Delta S^o=S_f_{product}-S_f_{reactant}

\Delta S^o=[n_{H_2O}\times \Delta S_f^0_{(H_2O)}+n_{SO_2}\times \Delta S_f^0_{(SO_2)}]-[n_{H_2S}\times \Delta S_f^0_{(H_2S)}+n_{O_2}\times \Delta S_f^0_{(O_2)}]

where,

\Delta S^o = entropy of reaction = ?

n = number of moles

\Delta S_f^0 = standard entropy of formation

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

\Delta S^o=[2mole\times (189J/K.mol)+2mole\times (248J/K.mol)}]-[2mole\times (206J/K.mol)+3mole\times (205J/K.mol)]

\Delta S^o=-153J/K

Now we have to calculate the Gibbs free energy of reaction (\Delta G^o).

As we know that,

\Delta G^o=\Delta H^o-T\Delta S^o

At room temperature, the temperature is 500 K.

\Delta G^o=(-1035600J)-(500K\times -153J/K)

\Delta G^o=-959100J=-959.1kJ

Therefore, the value of \Delta G^o for the reaction is -959.1 kJ
