chemical bonding Flashcards
formal charge
total no of valence electron in the free atom - total no of non bonding electrons (lone pair)- 1/2 total no of bonding electron (shared)
PF3 obeys octect rule but PF5 doesn’t
due to presence of extra energy
examples of odd no compounds that doesn’t follow octect rule
NO and ClO2
electron deficient molecules
BeCl2, BF3, B2H6
behaves as lewis acids
bond enthalpy in CO,CN,N2,C2
CO>N2>CN>C2
dipole strength : NH3 OR NF3
NH3>NF3
what should be the size of the cation inorder to have large polaring power
smaller cation size and larger the anion
AX2 geometry
linear - BeCl2
AX3 geometry
triangular BF3
AX2E geometry
bent (V shape) SO2
AX4 geometry
tetrahedral CH4
AX3E geometry
triangular pyramidal NH3
AX2E2 geometry
bent H2O
AX5
AX4E
triangular bipyramidal PCl5
