Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Out of the two distances between two nitrogen atoms, 50 pm or 75 pm, it is to be determined which one represents higher energy.
Concept introduction:
The energy of the molecule depends on the distance between the two atoms. At a certain distance, called the bond length, the energy reaches a minimum. As the distance between the two atoms increases, the energy of the molecule increases and slowly approaches a constant value as the distance increases to infinity. At distances shorter than the bond length, the energy increases very rapidly.
(b)
Interpretation:
Out of the two distances between two nitrogen atoms, 75 pm or 110 pm, it is to be determined which one represents higher energy.
Concept introduction:
The energy of the molecule depends on the distance between the two atoms. At a certain distance, called the bond length, the energy reaches a minimum. As the distance between the two atoms increases, the energy of the molecule increases and slowly approaches a constant value as the distance increases to infinity. At distances shorter than the bond length, the energy increases very rapidly.
(c)
Interpretation:
Out of the two distances between two nitrogen atoms, 110 pm or 150 pm, it is to be determined which one represents higher energy.

Be sure to show all reagents and intermediates for full credit. You do not need to draw mechanism arrows, but you do need to include charges where appropriate. If you do not put your group name, you will get half credit at most. ?
