A

Has a dative covalent bond

22
Q

Why don’t solid ionic compounds conduct electricity but molten do ?

Molten: Mobile ions

23
Q

What colour will cyclohexane turn with the addition of Cl2 to I- ions

A

24
Q

What colour will cyclohexane turn with the addition of Br2 to Cl- ions

A

Orange

25
Q

What comment is made if there is no lone pairs ?

A

Pairs of electrons repel equally

26
Q

What comment is made if there are lone pairs ?

A

Lone pairs repel more than bond pairs

27
Q

Why does NF3 have a permanent dipole ?

A
  • F is more electronegative than N
  • Dipoles don’t cancel as molecule is pyrimidal so assymetrical
28
Q

How do London forces arise ?

A

Uneven distribution of electrons creates a temporary dipole which causes induced dipole in neighbouring
molecules

29
Q

Explain difference in melting point between Na and Mg

A
  • Mg ions have greater charge
  • Mg has more delocalised electrons
  • Mg ions have a greater charge
