(a)
Interpretation:
The appropriate formula for hydroxylamine should be determined.
Concept introduction:
All known compounds are mainly classified as ionic and covalent compounds. In the naming of ionic compounds, the name of cation always comes first then the name of anion will come. In the naming of covalent compounds, the name of center atom will come first followed by other atoms with certain suffix that depends on the charge and atoms. In case of writing the formula, same rules need to follow such as writing the cation symbol first then anion symbol will come in ionic compounds. The criss-cross method must be used to balance the charges on cation and anions. In order to write the covalent compounds, write the
(b)

- The final structure has to match up with the mass of 77 on the graph-SIDES NOTES!arrow_forwardThe percent ionic character of a bond can be approximated by the formula 16+3.52 , where is the magnitude of the difference in the electronegativities of the atoms (see Fig. 3.18). Calculate the percent ionic character of HF, HCl, HBr, HI, and CsF, and compare the results with those in Table 3.7.arrow_forwardComplete the following sentence. A single ion of 17O2- consists ofarrow_forward
- Explain Pearson’s quantitative approaches to HSAB [hardness and electronegativity]arrow_forwardA. Demonstrate the formation ionic and covalent bonding B. Figure the differences of formation ionic and covalent bondingarrow_forwardFor each of the answers in Problem 60, state whether the species is polar or nonpolar.arrow_forward
- Please anwser the following it’s just naming structures. Thank u so much ??arrow_forwardIonic bonds also show unequal charges in bonding. However, due to the strong electronegativity of one atom, the e- will be pulled away leaving ___________ on the two atoms. This creates _____________. These are often created in water in organisms to carry out metabolic functions. Give an example: ______________arrow_forward(a) Using Lewis symbols, diagram the reaction between magnesiumand oxygen atoms to give the ionic substance MgO.(b) How many electrons are transferred? (c) Which atomloses electrons in the reaction?arrow_forward
- Draw an octet-rule Lewis structure for POCl3: Total count of valence e¯’s: a) in the formula = __ b) as dots and dashes in your O.R.-Lewis structure = _____ Bond orders: P–O _______ P–Cl _______ (like triple in N2, single in H2O …) Count e¯-groups around P: _____ --> e¯-group shape around P is ________________ Molecular shape is _______________ The molecule is ? not polar (mark one) Oxidation numbers: O ____ Cl ____ P ____arrow_forwardThe final structure has to match with the mass of 82 on the graph.arrow_forwardOne scale for electronegativity is based on the concept thatthe electronegativity of any atom is proportional to theionization energy of the atom minus its electron affinity:electronegativity = k1I - EA2, where k is a proportionalityconstant. (a) How does this definition explain why the electronegativityof F is greater than that of Cl, even though Clhas the greater electron affinity? (b) Why are both ionizationenergy and electron affinity relevant to the notion ofelectronegativity? (c) By using data in Chapter 7, determinethe value of k that would lead to an electronegativity of 4.0for F under this definition. (d) Use your result from part (c)to determine the electronegativities of Cl and O using thisscale. (e) Another scale for electronegativity defines electronegativityas the average of an atom’s first ionization energyand its electron affinity. Using this scale, calculate the electronegativitiesfor the halogens, and scale them so that fluorinehas an electronegativity of 4.0. On this…arrow_forward
