Covalent Bonding, Shapes Of Polyatomic Molecules And Polyatomic Ions

Question 0

He actual ozone is described as being a

Answer 0

Hybrid of the two resonance structure

Question 1

There are two ways in which ozone can be represented by dot diagrams

Answer 1

These are both resonance structure

One structure would be insufficient in explaining the structure of ozone

Question 2

The bond lengths are known as intermediate which is

Answer 2

Between a normal bond and a double bond

Question 3

If all electrons are landing pairs hey will take up these arrangements

Answer 3

Electron pairs = arrangement 
2 = linear 
3 = trigonal 
4= tetrahedral 
5 = trigonal bipyramidal 
6 = octahedral

Question 4

If we have four electron pairs ( 3 bond and one lone pair)

Answer 4

Ammonia

Lone pair at the too squeezes the normal pairs together to give true tetrahedron

Question 5

Four pairs (2 bonding 2 lone pairs )

Answer 5

Water

Bent as two lone pairs near top squeeze normal ones down

Question 6

Examples of a trigonal bipyramidal and octahedral

Answer 6

Trig bi = PCl5

Octahedral = Sf6
