Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The orbital picture of methane indicating the important overlap of AOs is to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
According to
(b)
Interpretation:
The energy diagram of methane indicating the formation of molecular orbitals (MOs) is to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
The molecular orbitals are formed by overlapping of atomic orbitals of adjacent atoms. The number of molecular orbitals formed and the number of atomic orbitals that overlap is equal. The two atomic orbitals, on mixing along bonding axes, form two molecular orbitals: one is

- Can you answer this with an explaination please?arrow_forwardHey can I get help on these small q's (no diagram/explanation needed) :)arrow_forwardThe molecule shown here has quite a large dipole, as indicated in its electrostatic potential map. Explain why.Hint: Consider various resonance structures.arrow_forward
- can you answer and explain this for me?arrow_forwardall one problem, fill in the blanks, draw the arrowsarrow_forwardProblem What amount (mol) of each ion is in each solution?(a) 5.0 mol of ammonium sulfate dissolved in water(b) 78.5 g of cesium bromide dissolved in water(c) 7.42×1022 formula units of copper(II) nitrate dissolved in water(d) 35 mL of 0.84 M zinc chloridePlan We write an equation that shows 1 mol of compound dissociating into ions. (a) We multiply the number of moles of ions by 5.0. (b) We first convert grams to moles. (c) We first convert formula units to moles. (d) We first convert molarity and volume to moles.arrow_forward
