In this chapter, we did not discuss the interaction that is primarily responsible for the attraction that exists between an anion like CH30¯ and a nonpolar molecule like Br2. (a) What name would be ascribed to the strongest interaction that exists between those two species? (b) For which pair of species would you expect that type of attractive interaction to be stronger: between CH30¯ and Br2 or between CH30¯ and I2? Why?

Draw the attraction between a water molecule and a nitrite ion, NO2-1 First, draw one molecule and add the partial charges where needed - use the ΔEN to determine the types of bonds. Then, draw the second molecule so that the δ+ on one molecule lines up across from the δ- on the other. Since we can't draw the molecules here you will answer questions about the drawings that you made on the homework worksheet. NO2-1 has ________ bonds with a ΔEN = ________ . NO2-1 has 3 REDs and is symmetrical/asymmetrical (answer is ________ ). However, NO2-1 has one electron more than its protons making it _________ text. . H2O has 2 ___________ bonds with a ΔEN = __________ . H2O has 4 REDs and is symmetrical/asymmetrical (answer is _______ ) making it a polar/nonpolar (answer is ________ ) molecule. Each H has a ___________ charge and the O has a ________ charge. The strongest possible attractive force between these two molecules is _________ .

Compare these two structures. [0=C=N] [0=C—N: Determine whether the two represent resonance contributors of a single species or depict different substances. If two structures are not resonance contributors, explain why. Select the single best answer. O The two structures are resonance contributors of the same species. The two structures are not resonance contributors because they contain different numbers of electrons. The two structures are not resonance contributors because they contain different bond orders. O The two structures are not resonance contributors because they contain bond orders having integer values. The two structures are not resonance contributors because each structure is present in its most stable (lowest energy) configuration. The two structures are not resonance contributors because they have different arrangements of atoms. X Ś
