(a)
Interpretation:
Interpret and predict the shape of AlH4- by drawing the Lewis structure.
Concept Introduction:
Lewis dot structure is the representation of the atom bonded to each other to form a molecule or compound.
The bond formation between the atoms takes place due to the sharing of valence electrons between them while the remaining outer electron denoted as lone pair of electrons.
(b)
Interpretation:
Interpret and predict the shape of SO4 -2 by drawing the Lewis structure.
Concept Introduction:
Lewis dot structure is the representation of the atom bonded to each other to form a molecule or compound.
The bond formation between the atoms takes place due to the sharing of valence electrons between them while the remaining outer electron denoted as lone pair of electrons.
(c)

Using radii from Resource section 1 (p.901) and Born-Lande equation, calculate the lattice energy for PbS, which crystallizes in the NaCl structure. Then, use the Born-Haber cycle to obtain the value of lattice energy for PbS. You will need the following data following data: AH Pb(g) = 196 kJ/mol; AHƒ PbS = −98 kJ/mol; electron affinities for S(g)→S¯(g) is -201 kJ/mol; S¯(g) (g) is 640kJ/mol. Ionization energies for Pb are listed in Resource section 2, p.903. Remember that enthalpies of formation are calculated beginning with the elements in their standard states (S8 for sulfur). The formation of S2, AHF: S2 (g) = 535 kJ/mol. Compare the two values, and explain the difference. (8 points)arrow_forward
