Please answer the following questions in terms of chemical bonding and intermolecular forces . In each explanation where a comparison is to be made, a complete answer must include a discussion of both substances. The Following complete Lewis electron-dot diagrams may be useful in answering parts of the question. a. At 1 atm and 298 K, pentane is a liquid whereas propane is a gas. Explain. b. At 1 atm and 298 K, methanol is a liquid whereas propane is a gas. Explain. c. Indicate the hybridization of the carbon atom in each of the following: i. Methanol ii.Methanoic(formic) acid
Please answer the following questions in terms of
a. At 1 atm and 298 K, pentane is a liquid whereas propane is a gas. Explain.
b. At 1 atm and 298 K, methanol is a liquid whereas propane is a gas. Explain.
c. Indicate the hybridization of the carbon atom in each of the following:
i. Methanol
ii.Methanoic(formic) acid
d.Draw the complete Lewis electron-dot diagram for molecule of propanoic acid , HC3H5O2
e.Explain the following observations about two carbon-oxygen bonds in the methane (formate) anion, HCO2-. You may draw a Lewis electron-dot diagram (or diagrams) of methanoate ion as part of your explanations.
i. The two carbon-oxygen bonds in the methanoate(formate) anion, HCO2-, have the same length.
ii.the length of the carbon-oxygen bonds in the methanoate(formate) anion, HCO2-, is intermediate between the length of the carbon-oxygen bond in methanoland the length of the carbon-oxygen bond in methanal.
