Answer:
Yes. Example: <u>Sulfur hexafluoride (SF₆) molecule</u>
Explanation:
According to the octet rule, elements tend to form chemical bonds in order to have <u>8 electrons in their valence shell</u> and gain the stable s²p⁶ electronic configuration.
However, this rule is generally followed by main group elements only.
Exception: <u>SF₆ molecule</u>
In this molecule, six fluorine atoms are attached to the central sulfur atom by single covalent bonds.
<u>Each fluorine atom has 8 electrons in their valence shells</u>. Thus, it <u>follows the octet rule.</u>
Whereas, there are <u>12 electrons around the central sulfur atom</u> in the SF₆ molecule. Therefore, <u>sulfur does not follow the octet rule.</u>
<u>Therefore, the SF₆ molecule is known as a </u><u>hypervalent molecule</u><u> or expanded-valence molecule.</u>
<span>CH4 + 4 Cl2 → CCl4 + 4 HCl
(4.00 mol CH4) x (1/1) x (0.70) = 2.80 mol CCl4
(4.00 mol CH4) x (4/1) x (0.70) = 11.2 mol HCl
CCl4 + 2 HF → CCl2F2 + 2 HCl
(2.80 mol CCl4) x (2/1) x (0.70) = 3.92 mol HCl
11.2 mol + 3.92 mol = 15.1 mol HCl from both steps</span>
Bases
A base is a substance that dissociates into more hydroxide ions (-OH-) when dissolved in water. Bases are also good proton acceptors. Bases, therefore, reduce the number of H+ and increase OH- hence raising the pH of the solution.
B(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇌ BH⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)
Explanation:
Other properties of bases is that they are bitter to the taste and they feel slippery when touched. Strong bases are nonthlese very corrosive like acids. Bases turn red litmus paper blue. Most alkali hydroxides such as NaOH are bases.
