Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The direction of polarity of molecule
Concept Introduction:
Covalent bonds are formed by sharing of electrons between atoms.
The polarity of a bond is arises due to the difference in electronegativity of atoms present in that bonding.
The direction of polarity is represented by the vectors drawn towards the direction of more electronegative atom in a bonding.

- Why is it not possible to find a five-fold symmetry operation in naturally-occurring crystals?arrow_forward(a) Draw out the following planes within a cubic unit cell given the xyz axes and origin (black circle) below. i. (011) ii. (102) iii. (131) LO (b) Find the xyz coordinates for the head of the crystal direction vector (i.e., where it intersects the edge of the unit cell) for the [131] crystal direction. Assume the tail of the vector is the origin (as indicated in the unit cell above).arrow_forward9. 1.4 g of glucose (C6H1206) is dissolved in 150 ml of water (final volume).

- Under what circumstance is a molecule that has a dipole not a polar molecule?arrow_forwardThe ionization of p-nitrophenol is shown below (pKa = 7.0): a. Identify the weak acid and conjugate base. b. At pH 7, what are the relative concentrations of ionized and un-ionized p-nitrophenol? c. If enough concentrated hydrochloric acid is added to a solution of p-nitrophenol to lower the pH from 7 to 5, what will happen to the relative concentrations of the ionized and un-ionized forms? d. Ionized p-nitrophenol has a yellow color, while the un-ionized form is colorless. The yellow color can be measured using a spectrophotometer at 400nm. In order to determine the total amount of p-nitrophenol in a solution, would you perform the spectrophotometer reading at an acidic or basic pH? Clearly explain why? e. A solution of p-nitrophenol at pH 7.95 was found to have an A400 of 0.255 . What is the total concentration (in µM) of p-nitrophenol (ionized plus un-ionized) in the solution? The molar extinction coefficient of p-nitrophenol is 18,500 M-1cm-1 and the pKa is 7.arrow_forwardConsider the following acids and their ionization constant, determine which conjugate base is HCOOH Ka = 1.7 x 10-4 (b) HCN Ka = 4.9 x 10-10arrow_forward
