Chapter 7, Problem 15P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The number of double bonds present in fullerene should be determined along with one way of placing them in structure which is shown in figure 7.17a.

Concept Introduction:

Octet rule:

The atoms of low atomic number combine or elements form bond in such a manner that each atom contains eight electrons in outermost shell or valence shell and their electronic configuration will be same as a noble gas.

Fullerene molecular formula: C60

Fullerene has 60 carbon atoms and its structure is arranged in a closed net having 12 pentagonal and 12 hexagonal faces to form cage like structure.

Methyl isocyanate, CH3 -N= C = O, is used in the industrial synthesis of a type of pesticide and herbicide known as a carbamate. As a historical note, an industrial accident in Bhopal, India, in 1984 resulted in leakage of an unknown quantity of this chemical into the air. An estimated 200,000 people were exposed to its vapors, and over 2000 of these people died. Q.) Write a Lewis structure for methyl isocyanate and predict its bond angles. What is the hybridization of its carbonyl carbon? Of its nitrogen atom?
Formation of ammonia from nitrogen and hydrogen is an exothermic process.  Which of the following statements is true about the bonds that are broken and formed during this reaction? N2(g) + 3H2(g) --->  2NH3(g) a.) products have lower PE because product bonds are weaker than reactants b.) products have higher PE because product bonds are stronger than reactants c.) products have higher PE because product bonds are weaker than reactants d.) products have lower PE because product bonds are stronger than reactants
