Can boron atoms, B form dative bonds with nitrogen atoms, N in the compound ammonia?​

Chemistry
1 answer:
expeople1 [14]3 years ago
3 0

"The boron-nitrogen interaction in the studied molecules shows some similarities with the N→B bond in the H3N-BH3 molecule, formally understood as covalent-dative. ... The results show that all the studied BN bonds are triple, since three two-center orbitals have been obtained."

"Formation of a dative bond or coordinate bond between ammonia and boron trifluoride. When the nitrogen donates a pair of electrons to share with the boron, the boron gains an octet. ... In addition, a pair of non-bonding electrons becomes bonding; they are delocalized over two atoms and become lower in energy."

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

This unit has encouraged a deeper understanding of the world and it's guiding principles. While it was initially challenging for me to determine if a change was physical or chemical, this unit provided me with the information necessary to determine the type. With this knowledge, I can now interrelate with other properties and believe that this new ability will assist in future units as well. Thank you!

Which statement is true? 1. The electronegativity of an atom depends only on the value of the ionization energy of the atom. 2.
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

5. Atoms with high ionization energies and high electron affinities have low electronegativities.

Explanation:

Ionization energy is the minimum amount of energy which is required to knock out the loosely bound valence electron from the isolated gaseous atom.

Electron affinity is the amount of energy released when an isolated gaseous atom accepts electron to form the corresponding anion.

Electronegativity is the tendency of an atom in a bond pair to attract the shared pair of electron towards itself.

Low ionization energies as well as low electron affinities mean the atom has low effective nuclear charge, which results in the less attraction of the valence electrons by the atom and thus, low electronegativity.
