Both cis and trans isomers of IO2F4- have been observed. Can IR spectra distinguish between these? Explain, supporting your answer on the basis of group theory.
Indicate FALSE and TRUE statements. Explain briefly your each answer.
………Bond energy of N2 is larger than that of O2.
……… 24Cr and 29Cu have the electron configurations 3d44s2 and 3d94s2.
………The symmetry species for doubly and triply degenerate representations are designated as A and B.
………NCl5 is a stable molecule but PCl5 is not stable.
………The point group of GeCl4 is Oh.
………The ionization energies of the group II A metals are in the order Ba>Sr>Ca>Mg.
………The radius increases as nuclear charge increases for ions with the same electronic structure such as O2-, F-, Na+, Mg2+.
The molecule with simple formula N2F2 has several isomers; two of these isomers have central nitrogens, with a terminal fluorine on each nitrogen. Show the Lewis Dot Diagram.
For the cis isomer :
