Explanation:
We define the formal charge on an atom in a molecule as the charge it carries assuming that electrons in all chemical bonds of the molecule were shared equally between atoms irrespective of the electronegativity of each atom.
The formula for calculating the formal charge on an atom in a molecule is;
Formal Charge = [number of valence electrons on neutral atom] – [(number of lone electron pairs) + (½ number of bonding electrons)] ·
The formal charge on the two nitrogen atoms in diazomethane is obtained as follows;
Middle nitrogen atom = 5 – 8/2 – 0 = +1
Last nitrogen atom = 5 – 4/2 – 4 = –1
The Lewis structure of the molecule is shown in the image attached.
Ionic bond is a chemical bond formed by the complete transfer of electrons between two atoms. The atom that loses electrons gains a positive charge (cation) and that which accepts electrons gains a negative charge (anion). Now, electronegativity is a parameter that measures the tendency of an atom to accept electrons. In the context of ionic bonding, two elements which show a significant difference in their electronegativity values form ionic bonds.
In the given examples, the difference in electronegativity is greatest between K and Br i.e. 0.8 and 2.8 respectively with a difference of 2.0. This also makes sense since K and Br are on the extreme ends of the periodic table. Hence, potassium with a valence electron configuration of 4s1 will lose its s electron to Br (4s24p6) and form an ionic molecule K⁺Br⁻
Ans E) potassium and bromine
Fluorine has the highest. Fluorine's electronegativity is 4.0
Some parts of a plant can be white because they do not contain chlorophyll.
Chlorophyll is a term to refer to a characteristic compound of most plants that has the function of:
- Bring the green color to vegetables
- Take charge of the photosynthesis process.
Some plants do not have as much chlorophyll in their systems. However, this does not affect their reproduction and growth because they have developed other feeding methods through their roots.
These plants that contain low amounts of chlorophyll have pale and white colorations because chlorophyll is what gives the plants their intense green color.
