Chapter 12, Problem 57E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether the bond FSi or OP is more polar is to be predicted.

Concept Introduction:

Electronegativity is defined as the tendency of an element to attract shared pair of electron. Pauling scale is used to determine the electronegativity of an element. Fluorine is the most electronegative element of the periodic table.

Consider peroxynitrite (chemical formula: ONOO−), a structural isomer of the nitrate anion. It is generated in the cell when nitric oxide (NO) reacts with the superoxide radical anion (O2-.). Peroxynitrite is a potent oxidant and nitrating agent and can lead to DNA and protein damage (this is the complete question) Draw the correct Lewis structure for peroxynitrite and indicate approximate bond angles. Tell how many molecular degrees of freedom of motion are present in peroxynitrite and what motions they correspond to.
Answer the questions in the table below about the shape of the phosphorus trifluoride (PF3) molecule. How many electron groups are around the central phosphorus atom? Note: one "electron group" means one lone pair, one single bond, one double bond, or one triple bond. What phrase best describes the arrangement of these electron groups around the central phosphorus atom? (You may need to use the scrollbar to see all the choices.) (choose one) X Ś
Consider the formate ion, HCO2-, which is the anion formed when formic acid lose an H+ ion. The H and the two O atoms are bonded to the central C atom. a) Draw the best Lewis structure for this ion. b) Are resonance structures needed to describe this structure? c) Would you predict that the C-O bond lengths in the formate ion would be longer or shorter relative to those in CO2?
