Rubidium Iodite is an Ionic compound made up of Following two ions,


                                1) Rb⁺ (Cation)


                                2) IO₂⁻ (Anion)


Now in order to draw the lewis structure of Iodite ion (poly anion) we will follow following steps,


a) First add up the number of valence electrons of all elements,


So,

                    Number of valence electrons in I     = 7

                    Number of Valence electrons in O1 = 6

                    Number of Valence electrons in O2 = 6

                    Number of negative charges           = 1

                                                                         --------------

                                                                               20


b) Secondly draw I as the central atom surrounded by two oxygen atoms. Connect I with each O atom via a single bond and subtract 2 electrons per bond, so,


                                                             20

                                                             - 4

                                                          -----------

                                                              16


Now, divide these 16 electrons on all elements starting from most electronegative atom. You will find that each oxygen atom will atain 6 electrons in three pairs and I will attain 4 electrons in 2 pairs, after that make a double bond between one O and I so that the formal charge of I gets zero.


Hence, the structure of Iodite will be as shown below,

The RbIO₂ compound has a Lewis structure in IO₂⁻

<h3>Further Explanation </h3>

The Lewis formula is used to describe covalent bonds

Lewis structures have a central atom and a terminal atom

The central atom is an atom that is bound to 2 or more other atoms, while a terminal atom is bound to 1 other atom

In describing Lewis's structure the steps that can be taken are:

  • 1. Count the number of valence electrons from atoms in a molecule
  • 2. Give each bond a pair of electrons
  • 3. The remaining electrons are given to the atomic terminal so that an octet is reached
  • 4. If the central atom is not yet octet, free electrons are drawn to the central atom to form double bonds

In the RbIO₂ compound, the bond is an ionic bond that is Rb + and IO₂⁻ so that what Lewis can describe is the I and O bonds in IO₂⁻

Steps to draw the Lewis structure

  • 1. Place atom I in the middle and O atom on the side
  • 2. Draw the electrons that bind each of 2 pairs to form 2 bonds
  • 3. Write down the remaining free electrons after subtracting the bonding electrons
  • 4. The form of a double bond of one O atom with atom I, because there are electrons that have not been paired

From this it was found that atom I did not follow the octet rule because it binds 10 electrons, this is what is called the octet rule which was developed / expanded, whereas in general period 3 elements such as P, Br, I can have electrons exceeding 8 when they bind

Explanation:

Given -

  • An organic compound gives H₂ gas with Na
  • On treatment with alkaline iodine it gives yellow ppt.
  • On oxidation with CrO₃/H⁺ forms an aldehyde (C₂H₄O)

To Find -

  • Name the compound and write the reaction involved

Now,

Let A be the organic compound.

Then,

  1. A + Na → + H₂↑
  2. A + I₂ → CHI₃ (yellow ppt.)
  3. A + CrO₃ + H⁺ → C₂H₄O

Now,

Here we see that compound A reacts with chromic oxide (CrO₃) in the presence of acidic medium gives aldehyde.

  • Functional group of aldehyde = —CHO

And It forms only 2 Carbon aldehyde it means, It is Ethanal (CH₃CHO).

Compound A reacts with chromic oxide (CrO₃) in the presence of acidic medium gives ethanal.

It means,

We know that 1° alcohol on oxidation gives aldehyde.

Here it gives 2 Carbon aldehyde.

It means,

Here 2 Carbon and 1° alcohol is used.

Now,

Its cleared that Compound A is Ethanol.

Reaction Involved -

  1. CH₃CH₂OH + Na → CH₃CH₂O⁻Na⁺ + H₂↑
  2. CH₃CH₂OH + I₂ + OH⁻ → CHI₃↓ + HCOO⁻ + HI + H₂O
  3. CH₃CH₂OH + CrO₃ + H⁺ → CH₃CHO

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

(a) The lewis structure for methylisocyanate is in the attached.

(b) The carbonyl carbon have an sp² hybridization

(c) The nitrogen have an sp² hybridization?

Explanation:

(a) The lewis structure for methylisocyanate has the nitrogen with one lone pair and the oxygen with two lone pairs.

(b) The carbonyl carbon form double bond with the oxygen causing to form three hybrid orbitals sp².

The Nitrogen also forms a double bond with the carbon having an sp² hybridization too.
