Two neutral objects are sketched below, in black and white. There are positive and negative electric charges inside these objects, and at least some of those charges can move around. Now suppose a positive charge comes close to these objects, as shown in the sketch. Shade the objects red anywhere you expect them to become more negatively charged, and shade the objects blue anywhere you expect them to become more positively charged.

The compound hexaazaisowurtzitane is one of the highest-energy explosives known (C E News, Jan. 17, 1994, p. 26). The compound, also known as CL-20, was first synthesized in 1987. The method of synthesis and detailed performance data are still classified because of CL-20s potential military application in rocket boosters and in warheads of smart weapons. The structure of CL-20 is In such shorthand structures, each point where lines meet represents a carbon atom. In addition, the hydrogens attached to the carbon atoms are omitted; each of the six carbon atoms has one hydrogen atom attached. Finally, assume that the two O atoms in the NO2 groups are attached to N with one single bond and one double bond. Three possible reactions for the explosive decomposition ofCL-20 are i. C6H6N12O12(s)6CO(g)+6N2(g)+3H2O(g)+32O2(g) ii. C6H6N12O12(s) 3CO(g) + 3CO2(g) + 6N2(g) + 3H2O(g) iii. C6H6N12O12(s) 6CO2(g) + 6N2(g) + 3H2 (g) a. Use bond energies to estimate E for these three reactions. b. Which of the above reactions releases the largest amount of energy per kilogram of CL-20?

Hypothetical elements X and Y form a molecule XY2, in which both Y atoms are bonded to atom X (and not to one another). The X—X distance in the elemental form of X is 204 pm, and the Y—Y distance in elemental Y is 168 pm. What would you predict for the X—Y distance in the XY2 molecule? Explain your answer.
