What is the sign of the energy change for each of these three processes? b. In general, what is the sign of the sum of the first two processes? Use examples to support your answer. c. What must be the sign of the sum of the three process d. Given your answer to part c, why do ionic bonds occur? e. Given your above explanations, why is NaCl stable but not Na2Cl? NaCl2?

CH3COCH3 (acetone) is a common laboratory solvent that is often used in nail polish remover. Its Lewis structure and space-filling molecular image are shown here: Acetone is a polar molecule; the oxygen end has a slightly negative charge (oxygen is more electronegative), whereas the carbon and hydrogen end has a slightly positive charge. In liquid acetone, the molecules are attracted to each other via these polar ends-the positive end of one molecule is attracted to the negative end of its neighbor-and therefore align as shown here: Draw a Lewis structure and space-filling molecular image for CH2Cl2 (dichloromethane), another common laboratory solvent. Is the molecule polar? Which end of the molecule has a slightly negative charge? Which end has a slightly positive charge? Draw several space-filling molecular images of CH2Cl2 showing how they align in liquid dichloromethane.
a. How many sticks did you need to make the skeleton structure?____________ b. How many sticks are left over? ____________ If your model is to obey the octet rule, each ball must have four sticks in it except for hydrogen atom balls, which need and can only have one. Each atom in an octet rule species is surrounded by four pairs of electrons. c. How many holes remain to be filled? ____________ Fill them with the remaining sticks, which represent nonbonding electron pairs. Draw the complete Lewis structure for NH2Cl using lines for bonds and pairs of dots for nonbonding electrons.

There are different types of food coloring available in most grocery stores- one that is water-based, and one that is oil-based. The oil-based food coloring works best in chocolates, in fry-oil to color fried foods, and in food with high butter contents. Based off of this information and knowing that substances of like polarity mix readily with one another, which food coloring is more polar (water-based or oil-based)? Which food coloring is less polar (or even nonpolar)?

Draw the attraction between a water molecule and a molecule of BrCl4F. Br is the central atom in an expanded octet - count your electrons carefully. First, draw one molecule and add the partial charges where needed - use the ΔEN to determine the types of bonds. Then, draw the second molecule so that the δ+ on one molecule lines up across from the δ- on the other. Since we can't draw the molecules here you will answer questions about the drawings that you made on the homework worksheet. BrCl4F has one __________ bond between the Br and F with ΔEN = ____________ , and four ________ bonds between the Br and Cl with a ΔEN = _________ . The central Br has 6 REDs and the molecule is symmetrical/asymmetrical (answer is ___________ ) making it a polar/nonpolar (answer is __________ ) molecule. The central Br has a ___________ charge and the F has a ________ charge. H2O has 2 ____________ bonds with a ΔEN = ___________ . H2O has 4 REDs and is symmetrical/asymmetrical (answer…
