Chapter 17.5, Problem 17.15.2PE

Consider the collection of nonmetallic elements 0, P, Te, I, and B.

  1. Which two would form the most polar single bond?
  2. Which two would form the longest single bond?
  3. Which two would be likely to form a compound of formula XY2 ?
  4. Which combinations of elements would likely yield a compound of empirical formula X2Y3?

What possible error(s) exist in the Lewis structure (assume we are trying to represent the best possible Lewis structure for the NO₂S ion knowing N is the central atom in this polyatomic ion)? [:ö==S: N= CO :O: The best structure would have double bond and two lone pairs on each oxygen atom and a single bond with three lone pairs on the sulfur. There are no errors. This is the best possible structure. The Lewis structure above does not minimize formal charges, thus is the not the best possible structure. The nitrogen atom has an expanded octet, and this structure is impossible. The Lewis structure contains the wrong number of electrons, thus this structure is impossible.
Hydrogen azide (HN3) is a shock-sensitive liquid, which means it explodes when subjected to a physical shock. The HN3molecule contains two N-N bonds with bond lengths 113 pm and 124 pm. The H-N-N bond angle is 112°. Draw two Lewis structures of HN3 that obey the octet rule. What is the formal charge of each atom in your structures? Which structure is most consistent with the experimental data?
Acetylene gas (ethyne; HC≡CH) burns with oxygen in an oxyacetylene torch to produce carbon dioxide, water vapor, and the heat needed to weld metals. The heat of combustion for acetylene is −1259 kJ/mol. Calculate the C≡C bond energy.     The average bond energies (kJ/mol) C―H 413 C―C 347 C═C 620 H―H 436 O―O 142 O═O 498 H―O 467 C―O 351 C═O 799
