For neutral molecules, which statements about covalent lewis structures are true?

Chemistry

Zanzabum4 years ago
7 0
Lewis structures have the distinct characteristic of electron dots drawn around an atom. They represent the valence electrons or the electron located at the outermost shell of the atom that takes part in chemical reactions. 

For neutral compounds, they simply add the valence electrons of the individual atoms. This is because it has no charge. Whatever the net charge of the compound is, that would be added, as well.

For example, the HCl atom's valence electrons would be 1 + 7 + 0 = 8. Therefore, you draw 8 electron dots around the HCl compound.

Explain the trend in boiling points as you move down group v11
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

Fluorine    

Chlorine

Bromine

Iodine

Boiling point increases as you go down the group v11

Explanation:

The elements of Group VII  are the halogens consisting of f fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), iodine (I).  All of which are non metals and exists  as diatomic molecules - F2, Cl2, Br2, I2 with  intermolecular attractions between the two molecules of each element held by Van der Waals dispersion force.

Moving down the group, the size of the atoms increases in size from Fluorine, F2 and Chlorine, Cl2 which are gases to Bromine , Br2 which exists as a liquid to solid, Iodine, I2. This attributes to the increasing in Strength of the Van der Waals forces as you go down the group. In order to break the vanderwaals forces , More heat energy is required to change thier states  leading to the increase in  boiling point going down the group.

Fluorine    

Chlorine

Bromine

Iodine

Boiling point increases as you go down the group
