SVEN [57.7K]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

An element with atomic number 18 is a noble gas.

The element with atomic number 19 will have one extra electron so it can donate one electron or shed one electron to attain noble gas configuration .

It tends to shed one electron to become positively charged ion . Hence they are electro-positive elements .  

Similarly the element with atomic number 17 will have one short  electron so it can gain  one electron  to attain noble gas configuration .

They  tend to gain  one electron to become negatively charged ion . Hence they are electro-negative  elements . They have high  electronegativity .

NH3 1. Lewis Structure 2. Perspective drawing 3. Number of atoms bonded to central atom 4. Number of non-bonding electron pairs
Stels [109]

This question will be answered in parts:

<h3><u>1. Lewis Structure</u></h3>

There are three N-H bonds and one lone pair on the nitrogen atom in the Lewis structure of NH3. On hydrogen atoms, there are no lone pairs that can only hold two electrons.

The lewis structure is as shown in the diagram.

<h3><u>2. Perspective Drawing</u></h3>

A molecule is shown from a viewpoint with its atoms' bonds pointing either in your direction (bolded wedge) or away from you (hash wedge).

The perspective drawing of NH3 is given here

<h3><u>3.Number of atoms bonded to central atom </u></h3>

Nitrogen is the central atom in the Lewis structure of NH3, which also contains one lone pair and is bound to the three hydrogen atoms.

<h3><u>4.Number of non-bonding electron pairs on the central atom</u></h3>

Three bond pairs and two lone pairings exist. This is due to the fact that nitrogen contains five electrons in its outer shell, three of which are bound to hydrogen atoms and two of which are free.

<h3><u>5. Electronic geometry:</u></h3>

The electronic geometry of nitrogen is based on a tetrahedral arrangement of electron pairs, and ammonia likewise possesses four electron pairs. There is only one lone pair because there are only three connected groupings. But since the lone pairs are "invisible," the ammonia has a pyramidal form.

<h3><u>6. Molecular geometry with ideal bond angles</u></h3>

The molecular geometry of ammonia it has a trigonal pyramidal or distorted tetrahedral structure.

The bond angle in ammonia is less than the standard 109.5⁰. The bond angle is 107⁰

<h3><u>7.Hybridization of central atom</u></h3>

The core nitrogen (N) atom in the NH3 molecule has a steric number of (3 + 1) = 4, which causes Sp3 hybridization.

<h3><u>8. Polarity:</u></h3>

Because of its asymmetrical form, a trigonal pyramidal structure, and the different electronegativities of N(3.04) and H(2.2), the NH3 (ammonia) molecule is polar in nature .

The temperature of evaporation is much higher for water than for alcohol. Without knowing more about the chemistry of alcohol, w
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Alcohols are organic molecules characterized majorly by the presence of the OH group in their molecule. The OH group is majorly responsible for several of their characteristics. This include the formation of hydrogen bonds between alcohol molecules. While this makes them more inorganic than most organic compounds, comparatively the hydrogen bonding formed in alcohols is not as strong as that which is present in water.

The higher strength of the hydrogen bonding is responsible for some comparable properties. While water boils at a temperature of 100 degrees Celsius, alcohol boils at a temperature of 78 degrees Celsius. This is an evidence to the fact that hydrogen bonding in alcohol is less stronger that that in water.

If the particles of matter that make up a substance are relatively far apart and can move freely, the substance is in what state
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Gaseous

Explanation:

Gasses can move freely and do not form the shape of their containers

Liquids are more free than solids, but they conform to the shape of their container

Solids are not free
