- Explain the following observations:The interhalogen ICl3 is known, but BrCl3 is not.arrow_forwardDiscuss the bonding between two hydrogen atoms on the basis of heitler and London theory, discuss drawbacks of VBT.arrow_forwardThe utility of the Job Plot or MCV is not limited to simple complexes. It has been used also in organometallic compounds and in biochemistry where there is some predictable binding between biomolecules. Discuss an application of MCV to (a) organometallic chemistry and (b) biochemistry.arrow_forward
- (a)Complex forming agents can be used to determine hardness of water how? Explain withthe help of following points. (i) Principle (ii) Chemical reactions (iii) Structure (iv)Calculations. Q.8(a)Write the MO electronic configuration of diatomic molecule having a bond order ofthree. If the electron pair following a bond between 2 atoms A and B is not in the center.Then what kind of bond is formed?(b) Although the outermost electronic configuration of transition elements is ns1or ns2likealkali and alkaline earth metal still they are not reactive like group 1&2 elements whyit is so?arrow_forwardIn which of these two hydrides: NH3 or SbH3, would you expect a greater distortion from the normal tetrahedral bond angle of 109°? And give reason for your answerarrow_forward(a) What does the term diamagnetism mean? (b) How doesa diamagnetic substance respond to a magnetic field?(c) Which of the following ions would you expect to bediamagnetic: N22 -, O22 -, Be22 + , C2-?arrow_forward
- Estimate the As¬I bond length from the data in Figure 7.7and compare your value to the experimental As¬I bondlength in arsenic triiodide, AsI3, 2.55 Å.arrow_forwardDetermine a possible Lewis structure for NS2, and whether it has diamagnetic or paramagnetic property. If youdimerize 2 NS2, they form N2S4. This process is called dimerization. What is the Lewis structure for N2S4? Commenton the magnetic properties of the dimer.arrow_forwardIn which of these two hydrides:NH3or SbH3,would you expect a greater distortion from the normal tetrahedral bond angle of 109°? And give reason for your answerarrow_forward
- What is the molecular orbital diagram for Be22-?arrow_forwardThe azide ion ( N3-) is a weakly bound molecular ion. Formulate its MO structure for localized s bonds and delocalized p bonds. Do you expect N3 and N3+o be bound as well? Which of the three species do you expect to beparamagnetic?arrow_forwardBy using FMO (orbital coefficients and delta EHOMO-LUMO), ALSO sizes of molecules, explain the regioselectivity .arrow_forward
