In each of the following molecules, a central atom is surrounded by a total of three atoms or unshared electron pairs: SnCl2, BCl3, SO2. In which of these molecules would you expect the bond angle to be less than 120? Explain your reasoning.
What are the relationships among bond order, bond energy, and bond length? Which of these quantities can be measured?
Use valence bond theory to explain the bonding in F2, HF, and ClBr. (a) F2 This molecule is symmetrical. The single bond present in this molecule is derived from the overlap of two (1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3d, 3p, 4s, 4d, 4p) orbitals contributed by each of the F atoms. (b) HF This molecule is asymmetrical. The single bond present in this molecule is derived from the overlap of one (1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3d, 3p, 4s, 4d, 4p) orbital contributed by the H atom and one (1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3d, 3p, 4s, 4d, 4p) orbital contributed by the F atom. (c) ClBr This molecule is also asymmetrical. The single bond present in this molecule is derived from the overlap of one (1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3d, 3p, 4s, 4d, 4p) orbital contributed by the Cl atom and one (1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3d, 3p, 4s, 4d, 4p) orbital contributed by the Br atom. Sketch the overlap of the atomic orbitals involved in the bonds.
In particular: • Decide whether each molecule is stable or not. • Decide whether each molecule would be diamagnetic or paramagnetic. • Calculate each molecule's bond order. molecule N 2 B₂ 2 Li₂ stable? yes no yes no yes no diamagnetic or paramagnetic? diamagnetic paramagnetic diamagnetic paramagnetic diamagnetic paramagnetic bond order 0 0
3 2 4 5 Consider the following second-period heteronuclear diatomic molecule. Combining the valence orbitals (2px, 2py, 2pz, and 2s) of each of the two atoms creates eight new orbitals (one 02s*, one 02s, one 02p, one 02p, two л₂p, and two л₂p) that span the entire molecule and explain it's electronic properties. Those eight new orbitals exist at six energy levels. Rank the molecular orbitals of a F2 molecule from lowest (1) to highest (6) energy.
