1A2: Define electron pair domain (EPD), count EPDS on building blocks, and use EPD knowledge to determine 3D geometry and bond angles of a tetrahedral, trigonal planar, linear building block. For the indicated atoms (look for the arrows) in each of the given structures: (a) state how many EPDs are present; (b) Label tetrahedral atoms with "TET," trigonal planar atoms with "TP," and linear atoms with "LIN;" (c) Identify one (1) indicated atom in each structure for which resonance structures bring a change in the number of EPDs from 4+-+3/3+-+4 or 3+2/2+3. A resonance structure must be reported to justify your reported EPD changes. H₂C CH3 HO Br -CH3 CH3

1.What are the dominant energy terms that are responsible for cesium fluoride occurring as an ionic solid and hydrogen fluoride occurring as a diatomic gas at standard conditions? 2.Explain why the energy separation between the t2g and eg d molecular orbitals in Mo(OCH3)6 is smaller than the value for Mo(CO)6 even though the average Mo-OCH3 bond dissociation enthalpy is more than twice the M-CO
If an element is bonded to 4 other atoms and has a formal charge of +1, what group must the element be in? I know that group 3A atoms are elctron deficient, and that period 3 elements and below, except for group 3A elements like Aluminum, can expand their octet because of their available d-orbital, which may not be relevant to this problem. I don't understand this question, or why the answer would be 5A. Is it because 5A have odd valence electrons, and can form free radicals, like NO?
Carbon is used in countless ways in a modern automobile, with the most visible use being carbon fiber, which is utilized for everything from decoration to vehicle frames and body panels. What properties of carbon (C) allow for the formation of carbon fiber which is a polymer (made of very thin strands of the element carbon)? Explain by referring to the atomic structure of carbon. Compare between carbon fiber and iron (Fe) in terms of durability and performance.
