a. The calculated partial charges on B and F in BF3 are +0.63 and −0.21 respectively. Partial charges on B and Cl in BC13 are +0.78 and -0.26. Would you expect the B atom to be less positive in BF3 than in BC13? Explain your reasoning.
Analyzing Infrared Spectra
The electromagnetic radiation or frequency is classified into radio-waves, micro-waves, infrared, visible, ultraviolet, X-rays and gamma rays. The infrared spectra emission refers to the portion between the visible and the microwave areas of electromagnetic spectrum. This spectral area is usually divided into three parts, near infrared (14,290 – 4000 cm-1), mid infrared (4000 – 400 cm-1), and far infrared (700 – 200 cm-1), respectively. The number set is the number of the wave (cm-1).

Interpretation of anisole using IR spectrum obtained from IR analysis.
IR Spectroscopy
Infrared (IR) or vibrational spectroscopy is a method used for analyzing the particle's vibratory transformations. This is one of the very popular spectroscopic approaches employed by inorganic as well as organic laboratories because it is helpful in evaluating and distinguishing the frameworks of the molecules. The infra-red spectroscopy process or procedure is carried out using a tool called an infrared spectrometer to obtain an infrared spectral (or spectrophotometer).

b. Boron triiodide cannot be obtained directly from the elements. The large scale
production of this chemical follows the equation:
LiBH4 +2 12 →→ Lil + Bl3 + 2 H₂
What is reducing and what is oxidizing reagent in this reaction?
c. Calculate AH for the previous reaction if AH (LiBH4) = −190.8 kJ mol-¹,
AH (Lil) = -270.4 kJ mol-¹, AH₁(BI3) = +71.1 kJ mol-¹, and comment on the
thermodynamic spontaneity of the reaction.
