Concept explainers
Interpretation: Definition of coordination covalent bond and its difference from ordinary covalent bond to be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Coordination covalent bond: Chemical substance that contains
Covalent bond: Chemical substance that contains chemical bond in which one of the shared electrons is come from one of the atom and another electron is come from another atom to make corresponding bond is known as covalent bond. Atoms shared their unpaired electrons to make a bond.
To Explain: The term coordination covalent bond and to show how does it differs from normal covalent bond.

Explain. b Is the bond enthalpy of X2 a positive or a negative quantity? Why? c Suppose H for the reaction is 500 kJ/mol. Estimate the bond enthalpy of the X2 molecule. d Another hypothetical molecular compound, Y2(g), has a bond enthalpy of 750 kJ/mol, and the molecular compound XY(g) has a bond enthalpy of 1500 kJ/mol. Using bond enthalpy information, calculate H for the following reaction. X2(g)+Y2(g)2XY(g) e Given the following information, as well as the information previously presented, predict whether or not the hypothetical ionic compound AX is likely to form. In this compound, A forms the A+ cation, and X forms the X anion. Be sure to justify your answer. Reaction: A(g)+12X2(g)AX(s)The first ionization energy of A(g) is 400 kJ/mol.
