A. The structure of [NO3]- is either trigonal planar or trigonal pyramidal draw both possible structures and determine the point
group for each using drawing software. B. Which irreducible representations represent the translational and rotational modes for each possible structure of [NO3]-?
1 answer:
Answer:
Look at the picture.
Explanation:
For planar anion point group is D3h. For trigonal piramidal point group is C3v.
On picture 2 and 3 are the tables for each point group. Irreducible representations its the horizontal rows in tables. Where you see x, y and z it's translation of p-orbitals. Where you see R - it's rotations.

Answer:
c. HF can participate in hydrogen bonding.
Explanation:
<u>The boiling points of substances often reflect the strength of the </u><u>intermolecular forces</u><u> operating among the molecules.</u>
If it takes more energy to separate molecules of HF than of the rest of the hydrogen halides because HF molecules are held together by stronger intermolecular forces, then the boiling point of HF will be higher than that of all the hydrogen halides.
A particularly strong type of intermolecular attraction is called the hydrogen bond, <em>which is a special type of dipole-dipole interaction between the hydrogen atom in a polar bond</em>, such as N-H, O-H, or F-H, and an electronegative O, N, or F atom.
