Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The given resonance structures are to be labeled as major, minor, or equal contributors to the hybrid and the hybrid is to be drawn.
Concept Introduction: Two resonance structures are different and the hybrid looks like the better resonance. Better resonance structure is the one which has major contribution in the hybrid and others are minor contributors. Major contributor is the resonance structure which possesses more bonds and fewer charges.

Use Le Chatelier's principle to describe the effect of the following changes on the position of the Haber-Bosch equilibrium: N2(g) + 3H2(g)= 2NH3(9) AH = -92kJ Choose one of the following answers: shift to reactant side, shift to product side or no change and draw the resulting graph. I. Increase the [N2(g)] Effect: H₂ N₂ NH3 II. Decrease the volume of the container. Effect: H₂ N₂2 NH3arrow_forwardf) The unusual molecule [2.2.2] propellane is pictured. 1) Given the bond length and bond angles in the image, what hybridization scheme best describes the carbons marked by the askerisks? 2) What types of orbitals are used in the bond between the two carbons marked by the askerisks? 3) How does this bond compare to an ordinary carbon-carbon bond (which is usually 1.54 Å long)?

HO :0: :Ö: HO + Bicarbonate is crucial for the control of body pH (for example, blood pH: 7.4). A more self-indulgent use is in baking soda, where it serves as a source of CO2 CO₂ 2 gas, which gives bread and pastry their fluffy constituency. (i) Draw at least one additional resonance form. = (ii) Using curved "electron-pushing" arrows, show how these Lewis structures may be interconverted by movement of electron pairs. (iii) Determine which form or forms will be the major contributor(s) to the real structure of bicarbonate, explaining your answer on the basis of the criteria in Section 1-5.arrow_forward
