In KI, the overall dipole moment is the same as the bond. In H2Se, the overall dipole moment will point towards the Se as in the diagram. 19 Q1 Q2 19 ( 1)( 1) 5) E 2.31x 10 J nm 2.31x 10 J nm x J r nm x J ( 1 kj 1000 J x 1023 ) ( mol ) = -433 kj mol 6) a) 2C2H6 + 7O2 4CO2 + 6H2O C C 2(347 kj) = 694 kj C = 0 8(799 kj) = 6392 kj C H 12(413 kj) = 4956 kj O H 12(467 kj) = 5604 kj O = O 7(495 kj) = 3465 kj 9115 kj kj ANSWER: 9115 kj kj = kj b) HCN + 2H2 CH3NH2 C H 1(413 kj) = 413 kj C H 3(413 kj) = 1239 kj C N 1(891 kj) = 891 kj C N 1(305 kj) = 305 kj H H 2(432 kj) = 864 kj N H 2(391 kj) = 782 kj 2168 kj 2326 kj ANSWER: 2168 kj 2326 kj = -158 kj

The difference Q in lattice energy is related to 1 Q 2 where Q1 and Q2 are the ionic charges of the ions. With the (+2)(-2) for MgO r and the (+1)(-1) for NaF, the lattice energy of MgO is almost 4 times larger (the difference in r is insignificant for the problem as all other processes involving energy in the formation of the compounds). 10) a) MgO since Mg is smaller than Ca. b) BaCl2 since Ba has a larger charge than Na. 11) The higher the bond order, the higher the bond energy and the shorter the bond length. 12) a) b) O = C = O c) B.O. = 1 B.O. = 2 B.O. = 1⅓ 13) C, N, and O (sometimes P and S if bonded with C, N, or O)

3 AP CHEMISTRY: BONDING THEORIES REVIEW KEY p. 3 14) S has a 3d sublevel in its valence shell. Upon bonding, 2 of the electrons in S promote to the 3d sublevel giving it 6 half-filled orbitals to form 6. Thus it could have up to 12 electrons. C (and other period 2 elements) does not have a d sublevel in its valence shell to allow such promotion. Therefore, it can only promote within its 2s-2p sublevels (if possible) and have at most 8 electrons. 15) a) 1 b) 4 c) 1 d) 6 16) Elements form compounds to lower their potential energy and become more stable. 17) Resonance is the sharing of multiple throughout the molecule (the multiple are delocalized). It occurs whenever there are more than 1 possible Lewis structure for the molecule. 18) a) octahedral all 90 b) teeter totter axis < 90, equator < 120 c) tetrahedral all d) <109.5 (~107 ) 19) NH4 + and BF4 20) a) b) ) CONTINUED NEXT PAGE

The equator positions on the molecule has more room than the axis positions. 44) The more electronegative elements have a tighter hold on their electrons and therefore require less room than the other elements of lesser electronegativity. Thus, these elements will take the axial positions since they need less room. 45) a) C2H2 b) C2H6 c) C2H6 d) C2H2 46) 20 σ, 8 π 47) Molecular orbitals form by the mixing of atomic orbitals upon the formation of a molecule. Orbitals are conserved the same number of molecular orbitals formed equal the number of atomic orbitals that make them. 48) Molecular orbitals are similar to atomic orbitals in many ways such as getting larger as the valence shell gets larger and that orbitals of the same level are degenerate. Two most important aspects are the molecular orbitals also can hold 2 electrons, with opposite spins, and the wave functions for the molecule indicates the electron probability for the orbitals just like atomic orbitals. 49) a) πp b) σs c) σp* d) σs e) πp* f) σs* 50) a) b) c) d) e) f)

7 AP CHEMISTRY: BONDING THEORIES REVIEW KEY p. 7 51) Bonding MO s have less energy than the atomic orbitals from which they come and antibonding MO s have more energy than the atomic orbitals from which they come. 52) Bonding MO s favor molecule formation since they have less energy than the original atomic orbitals. Since nature spontaneously goes in the direction of less energy, and therefore a more stable situation, the molecule will form. Antibonding MO s favor the separation of free atoms since they have more energy than the original atomic orbitals this means the formation of a molecule will not lead to a more stable substance and therefore won t happen on its own. 53) C2 O2 Cl2 Ne2 BO = 2 BO = 2 BO = 1 BO = 0 54) Can use either electron configuration or energy diagram to determine this. With the configurations, if the orbitals are full there are no unpaired e s whereas if they are not full then there is unpaired e (s).

Liquid N2 will pour between the magnet s poles.
