Chapter 3, Problem 3.82P

3-82 Hydrogen and nitrogen combine in different ratios to form three compounds: NH3 (ammonia), N2H4(hydrazine), and N2H2 (diimide).

(a) How many valence electrons must the Lewis structure of each molecule show?

(b) Draw a Lewis structure for each molecule.

(c) Predict the bond angles about the nitrogen atom(s) in each molecule.

3. How many valence electrons are in a C atom? an Cl atom? (a) Write the full Lewis structure for the CH2C2 molecule. Show all lone pairs. Pert (b) Write the geometric structure for the CH2CI2 molecule and name the geometry. (c) Determine if the CH2CI2 molecule has polar or nonpolar bonds using the following electronegativity: C = 2.5, H = 2.1, CI = 3.0. Re-draw the geometric structure below, but this time include partial charges and dipole arrows for any polar bonds present. Justify your assignments for polar or nonpolar bonds.
Based on Linus Pauling's electronegativity scale, would H2S be considered a polar molecule?  Pick the best answer.  (a) No. It would technically be considered a non-polar molecule. (b) No. Even though it contains polar bonds they are symmetrical and therefore H2S is non-polar. (c) No. The electronegativity difference between H and S is so great that it would be considered an ionic compound. (d) H2S violates the octet rule and therefore would not even exist
2. Draw the Lewis structures for each of the following ions or molecules. Give the number of electrons in each species. Remember to enclose ions in square brackets with the charge as a superscript outside the right bracket. (a) Br 20 (c) BrF 3 (e) PCI 4* (b) IOF 3 (I is the central atom) (d) ASF 3
