Please Help Quick!!! Lewis Structure of PO3 3-

Chemistry
1 answer:
nevsk [136]3 years ago
8 0

1. Find its coordination figure/coordination number of central atom (CF)

Ev = Vallence electron of central atom

Σe = electrons donated from substituents

Terminal O gives 0 electrons, hence Σe = 3 x 0

charge = charge of the compound

2. Find EP (electron pairs) and LP (lone pairs)

LP = CF - EP

3. Draw the skeleton with octet substituents (top right figure)

4. Find formal charge for each atoms (Qf)

5. Write formal charge near atom in skeleton

6. Enjoy

Which of the following bond types is the strongest?
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

b) Ion-dipole

Explanation:

Intermolecular forces are the forces of attraction or repulsion between molecules, they are significantly weaker than intramolecular forces like covalent or ionic bonds.

  • <em>Hydrogen bonds</em> happen between a partially positively charged hydrogen and another partially negatively charged, it's a type of dipole-dipole interaction, one of the strongest among intermolecular forces.
  • <em>Ion-dipole</em> involves an ion and polar molecule, its strength is proportional to the charge of the ion. It's stronger than hydrogen bonds because the ion and the polar molecule align so positive and negative charges are next to another allowing maximum attraction.
  • <em>Dipole-dipole </em>is an interaction between two molecules that have permanent dipoles, aligning to increase attraction.
  • <em>Ion-dipole</em> induced usually happens when a non-polar molecule interacts with an ion causing the molecule to be temporary partially charged. It's a weaker interaction.
  • <em>Dipole- Induced Dipole</em>, like ion-dipole induced this interaction causes one of the two involved molecules to be temporary partially charged.

Considering this information we can conclude that Ion-Dipole interaction is the strongest force among intermolecular forces.

I hope this information is useful to you!

Identify each type of bond:
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

The type of bond between the Oxygen atom and the hydrogen is Covalent

this is because the 2 electrons are being shared by both hydrogen and oxygen

The type of bond this molecule makes as a whole is called a Hydrogen Bond

A hydrogen bond is formed because of the partial +ve and -ve charge in a molecule

The cause of the partial +ve and -ve charge is the comparatively high electronegativity of oxygen which makes the electron get attracted towards the oxygen atom while the hydrogens try to maintain the maximum distance from the lone pairs due to repulsion

Hope it helped
