Formal Charges

Formal charges have an important role in organic chemistry since this concept helps us to know whether an atom in a molecule is neutral/bears a positive or negative charge. Even if some molecules are neutral, the atoms within that molecule need not be ne…

Polarity Of Water

In simple chemical terms, polarity refers to the separation of charges in a chemical species leading into formation of two polar ends which are positively charged end and negatively charged end. Polarity in any molecule occurs due to the differences in t…

Valence Bond Theory Vbt

Valence bond theory (VBT) in simple terms explains how individual atomic orbitals with an unpaired electron each, come close to each other and overlap to form a molecular orbital giving a covalent bond. It gives a quantum mechanical approach to the forma…

Textbook Question

Chapter 17.6, Problem 17.17.2PE

Although I₃- is a known ion, F₃- is not.
a. Draw the Lewis structure for 1₃- (it is linear, not a triangle).
b. One of your classmates says that F3 - does not exist because F is too electronegative tomake bonds with another atom. Give an example that proves your classmate is wrong.
c. Another classmate says FS does not exist because it would violate the octet rule. Is thisclassmate possibly correct?
d. Yet another classmate says F3 does not exist because F is too small to make bonds to more than one atom, Is this classmate possibly correct?
