Q

What is an instantaneous Diople?

A

When the electron density is fluctuating in a molecule that is unpolarised
that oppositely charged dipoles are formed either side of the molecule
Occurs between similar electronegative bonds

Q

Draw the shape of the molecule NCl4+ , name the shape and corresponding bond angles

Explain why it is that bond angle

A

tetrahedral — 109.5

4Bp and 0Lp , electron pairs repel equally & chlorines are stationed as far as part as possible from one another

17
Q
A

D

F2 has no polar bonds
CBr4 CO2 and PF3 do
CBr4 and CO2 have symmetrical arrangement while PF3 doesn’t

18
Q

Explain why MgCl2 has a high melting point

A

Large intermolecular forces of electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions in a regular arrangement

That require a lot of energy to overcome

19
Q

Explain how melting or dissolving MgCl2 can conduct electricity

A

Melting or dislodging releases Mg2+ and Cl- ions

These charged ions can move and carry a charge.

Conducting electricity

20
Q
A

Carbon Atoms arranged in hexagonal sheets of hexagons

Each carbon atom is covalently bonded to 3 other carbon atoms

The 4th outer electron is delocalised

Sheets of carbon held together by Van Dee Waal forces

21
Q

Why does graphite have a high melting point

A

To melt graphite you have to break strong covalent bonds, which take along of energy

22
Q

Explain why CHCl3 is polar while CCl4 is not polar

A
23
Q

Explain the Structure of Ice

A

Molecular Crystalline structure

Each water molecule is surrounded by four neighbouring water molecules, forming a lattice, each of them are hydrogen bonded to one another

24
Q

Explain why ice has a lower density then water

A

Regular lattice arrangement contains more hydrogen bonds then liquid water

Crystalline structure holds molecules further apart from each other on average then in liquid water

Meaning a decrease in mass per unit volume

25
Q

Draw a Water molecule

A
26
Q

Justify why H2O has a bond angle of 104.5 degrees

A

Bonding pair - lone pair replulsion is greater then bonding pair - bonding pair repulsion.

As electrons pairs repel to be as far away from each other as possible this causes the bond angle to reduce from 180 to 118 with 1 lone pair of electrons

2 lone pair of electrons reduce the angle between the bonding pairs even more as lone pair lone pair repulsion is stronger then bonding pair lone pair from 118 to 104.5.
