Question 107

The first way to name an ether is to identify the length of the R and R’ groups. The ___ group becomes the base chain (named following the rules for hydrocarbons) and the ___ group becomes the alkoxy substituent. For example, in the ether CH3OCH2CH3 , the −CH2CH3 group is the longer R group, so it becomes the base. The base name is ___. The shorter R' group is the CH3, so the CH3O− group is the ___ substituent (methoxy). The complete name of CH3OCH2CH3 is methoxy ethane.

Answer 107

longer shorter ethane alkoxy

Question 107

The second way of naming ethers is by naming the R and R’ groups ___ (prefix + “yl”) in alphabetical order, followed by the word “ether”. For example, in the ether CH3CH2OCH2CH2CH3 , the names of the R and R’ groups are ___ (for the CH3CH2- group) and ___ (for the −CH2CH2CH3 group), so the name of this ether would be ethyl propyl ether.

8

Question 142

Which of the following atoms will form an ion that is larger than the neutral atom? Na+ Al3+ Mg2+ Cl–

Answer 142

Cl- *Cations are always smaller than neutral atoms because they have lost one or more electrons (e.g., Na+, Mg2+, and Al3+ are smaller than Na, Mg, and Al, respectively). In contrast, anions are always larger than the neutral atom because they have gained an electron (e.g., Cl– is larger than Cl).

Question 143

What is the difference between rubidium-87 and rubidium-82?

Answer 143

Rubidium-87 has 5 more neutrons than rubidium-82. *Rubidium-87 and rubidium-82 are isotopes of rubidium, meaning that they have the same number of protons and electrons, but different numbers of neutrons.

Question 143

What is the charge on a sulfide ion?

Answer 143

2- *Sulfur belongs to group 6A of the periodic table. This means that it needs to gain two electrons to have a full octet. When it gains two electrons, it gains two more negative charges as compared to the neutral sulfur atom, giving the sulfide ion (S2-) a 2- charge.

Answer 144

55Fe and 56Fe *The superscripts to the left of Fe in option B represent the mass numbers (the sum of protons and neutrons) of the respective iron atoms. 55Fe and 56Fe represent different isotopes of Fe because they have the same number of protons (26), but different numbers of neutrons.

Question 145

What is the charge on a nitride ion?

Answer 145

3- *Nitrogen belongs to group 5A of the periodic table. This means that it needs to gain three valence electrons in order to have a full octet. By gaining three electrons, it gains three extra negative charges, thus giving the nitride ion (N3-) a 3- charge.

Question 146

What charge will an ion of chlorine-37 have?

Answer 146

-1 *ISOTOPES are atoms that have the same number of protons, but a different number of neutrons. For example, both chlorine-35 and chlorine-37 have 17 protons, but chlorine-37 has two extra neutrons and a total of 20 neutrons. IONS are charged atoms that have an excess number of either protons (positively-charged cations) or electrons (negatively-charged anions). Chlorine-37 contains 17 protons, so it also contains 17 electrons (7 of which are valence electrons); therefore, it gains one electron to obtain a full octet, thus taking on a -1 charge.

Question 146

Which of the following are true of uranium-235? select all that apply - It has 235 neutrons. - It has 235 electrons. - It has 235 protons. - It has 143 electrons. - It has 143 neutrons. - It has 92 protons.

Answer 146

- It has 143 neutrons. - It has 92 protons. *The number 235 indicates the mass number of the given Uranium isotope, which is the sum of the number of its protons and neutrons. Uranium has an atomic number of 92. Accordingly, a uranium-235 atom has 143 neutrons.

It has 8 protons.

Question 148

A neutral chlorine atom (Cl) has 7 electrons in its valence shell. Which of the following ions will it form?

Answer 148

Cl– *A neutral chlorine atom has 7 valence electrons, so it needs to gain 1 more electron to have a complete octet. When it gains an electron, the chlorine atom has one more negatively-charged electron than positively-charged protons. So, the resulting ion has a -1 charge.

Question 148

Question 149

The electron configurations of several atoms are listed below. Which of them is most likely to lose electrons? 1s22s22p63s23p6 1s22s22p63s2 1s22s22p4 1s22s2

Answer 149

1s22s22p63s2 *Atoms form ions so that they can gain a complete octet of valence electrons. 1s22s22p4 would prefer to gain 2 electrons to obtain a complete octet. 1s22s22p63s23p6 already has a full octet. Although options 1s22s2 and 1s22s22p63s2 have similar electron configurations, with 2 valence electrons in their s-orbitals, the electrons in the 3s orbital are easier to remove because they are farther from the nucleus. The electrons in the lower-lying subshells (1s,2s,2p) shield these valence electrons from the electrostatic attraction of protons in the nucleus. This makes it easier for them to be removed in order to form an ion.

Question 150

Which of the following represents the electron configuration of Li in LiCl?

Answer 150

1s2

Question 151

In which of the following types of bonds are valence electrons completely donated from one atom to the other?

Answer 151

Ionic bond *Ionic bonding is the complete transfer of valence electron(s) between atoms. In an ionic bond, the less electronegative atom donates its valence electrons to another, more electronegative atom. The atom that donates its electrons becomes a positively-charged cation, while the atom that accepts the electrons becomes a negatively-charged anion. In covalent bonds, electrons are shared between two atoms.

Question 152

In which of the following bonds are electrons donated from one atom to another?

Answer 152

ionic bond *In an ionic bond, the less electronegative atom donates its valence electrons to another, more electronegative atom. The atom that donates its electrons becomes a positively-charged cation, while the atom that accepts the electrons becomes a negatively-charged anion.

Question 153

Which of the compounds below contains both ionic and covalent bonds? CO2 KOH CH4 NaCl

Answer 153

KOH *KOH contains both types of bonds: an ionic bond between the potassium ion K+ and hydroxide ion OH–, as well as a polar covalent bond between O and H.

Question 154

Which of the following properties mainly determines a bond’s polarity?

Answer 154

electronegativity *electronegativity describes an atom’s ability to attract electrons; atoms with a higher electronegativity pull electrons towards them more strongly. An atom’s ability to attract electrons determines its polarity.

Question 155

Which of the following bonds do you expect to be the most polar? H-H C-C C-F C-O

Answer 155

C-F *The bond with the largest electronegativity difference is the most polar

Question 156

Which of the following bonds do you expect to be nonpolar?

Answer 156

C-C *The atoms in C-C are identical, so they have the same polarity; therefore, they form nonpolar covalent bonds (electrons are shared equally). In the other options, the electrons are shared unequally between the respective atoms due to the difference in their electronegativities, thus making them polar covalent bonds.

Question 157

Which of the atom pairs below would form an ionic bond with each other? N and O He and Ar C and H Mg and O

Answer 157

Mg and O

Question 158

Which of the following atoms would oxygen (O) form an ionic bond with? Na O S N

Answer 158

Na

Question 159

Which of the following has the longest bond length? C-I C-Br C-Cl C-F

Answer 159

*Non-polar bonds are generally longer than polar bonds Larger atoms have longer bonds Single bonds are longer than double or triple bonds The bond length between two atoms is the distance between their nuclei. The distance increases as the size of the atoms increases. We know from periodic trends that the size of atoms in the same group increases as we move down a group (column). Iodine (I) is the lowermost atom in the halogen group of the periodic table. Therefore, it will form the longest bond with carbon.

Question 160

Which of the following will have the shortest bond length? All bonds are the same length. C≡N C=N C-N

Answer 160

C≡N *Single bonds are longer than double or triple bonds As the bond order (the number of electron bonding pairs) increases between two atoms, the distance between the two atoms decreases. This means as more bonds are formed between two atoms, they move closer to each other. Consequently, the bond length decreases.
