Chapter 5, Problem 4CTQ
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The conclusions derived by student from model 2 should be explained.
Concept introduction: Lewis structure is representation of molecule in that dots are shown to represent unshared electrons and lines are shown to represent bonds. These lines and dots represent distribution of electrons in the molecule.
When one single structure is unable to describe all the properties of single-molecule, a phenomenon called resonance comes into play. This arises when two or more than two Lewis structures are possible for one molecule. All such structures are called resonating structures and have same placement of atoms in them but these have different locations of bond pairs and lone pairs. The resonating structures are inter-convertible with each other. The resultant of all the resonating or contributing structures is called the resonance hybrid.

How is it related to resonance energy? Answer by selecting all true statements. 00 Resonance energy is a term used in VB theory. Resonance energy and delocalization energy are term that describe different conditions. Resonance energy is a term used in MO theory. Resonance energy and delocalization energy are essentially the same thing. Resonance energy and delocalization energy represent the additional stability associated with a spreading out of electron density. Delocalization energy is a term used in VB theory. Delocalization energy is a term used in MO theory. Resonance energy and delocalization energy represent the additional stability associated with concentrating electron density.arrow_forwardOf the bonds C-C, C=C, and C=C, the C-C bond is strongest/longest В weakest/shortest c) weakest/longest strongest/shortest E intermediate in both strength and lengtharrow_forward
- Give typed full explanation Look at figure 3-22 that shows the electron density that occurs abound the Si-O bond. This electron density map gives the "shape" of the O and Si atoms when they are bonded together. Think about the answer in Q9 and choose the best response below: (Select answer choice) a. This figure shows that the Si and O atoms, when they bond together, do not form spheres, which is due to the fact that the Si-O bond is strongly covalent and these shared electrons affect atomic shape. This change in shape limits the applicability of Pauling's Coordination principle since that principle is based on the geometry of perfect spheres. b. This figure shows that the Si and O atoms, when they bond together are close to perfect spheres, which is due to the fact that the Si-O bond is strongly covalent. This figure shows that Pauling's Coordination principle should apply very precisely to any substance that contains Si-O bonds c.
