Answer:
NH3 is polar due to the bonds between nitrogen and hydrogen which have different electronegativity and due also to its asymmetrical shape.
Explanation:
NH3 is polar as there are 3 dipoles in the ammonia molecule that do not balance each other out.
Considering the N-H bond which is polar because N with an electronegativy of 3.0, is more electronegative than H, with an electronegativity of 2.1. The is overall asymmetrical shape of NH3
means that the dipoles remains unbalanced and do cancel out each other making the NH3 polar.
Answer:
3p^2
Explanation:
after filling 3s^2 only two electrons left out of 14 so the next sub shell is 3p therefore ,X represents 3p^2
Explanation:
What will the question be ?
Answer:
It means the chemical entity is a radical
Explanation:
When we talk of unsaturation, we are referring to the number of pi-bonds in a chemical entity. The alkane, alkene and alkyne organic family are used to as common examples to explain the term unsaturation.
While alkynes have 3 bonds, it must be understood that they have 2 pi bonds only and as such their degree of saturation is two.
In the case of an alkene, there is only one single pi bond and as such the degree of unsaturation is 1.
Now in this case, we have a fractional 0.5 degree of unsaturation alongside the 3 to make a total of 3.5. So what’s the issue here?
The fractional part shows that the chemical entity we are dealing with here is a radical. While the integer 3 shows that there are 3 pi-bonds, the half pi bond remaining tells us that there is a missing electron on one of the atoms involved in the chemical bonding and as such, the 1/2 extra degree of unsaturation tends to tell us this.
Kindly recall that a radical is a chemical entity within which we have at the least an unpaired electron.
