I just wanted to make sure that i did get this right:

Basically to find out if a compound is polydentate and how many bonds it makes with the central atome (transition metal) we are suppose to count the number of lone pair on this compound and it will give us the # of bound created?

yast_27

Which are the ligands name that we are requiered to know for the final? Are they the one listed in the manual (7th => p724) or will we be given a chart with these common ligands name?

yast_27

When we name the ligand part of the compound, should we start by naming the anion in alphabetical order and then name the neutral compound in alphabetical order or should we name all of the ligands in alphabetical order without consider their charge?

yast_27

How can we determine if a ligand is polydentate when naming a coordination compound?

yast_27

Are polydentate ligand consider as one ligand or the number of bound they form with the TM in the coordination number?

yast_27

Should we consider lone pair as sigma or pi bond when we do hybridization?
For example if an central atom is linked with 3 atoms (sigma bond) and 1lone pair is it s1p3 or s1p2 hybridization?

Thank you very much!

Hi,

I was wondering how we were suppose to work with resonnance structure to determine sigma and pi bond?
Do we count 2pi bond, 2 sigma bond or one of each?

Thank you very much!

Hi,

Is it more important to fullfill the octet rule or to have the most stable molecule possible?

Thank you

yast_27

When you have a molecule such as CH4, is it considered as polar or apolar?
Does the 4H atoms dipole moment around the C atom cancel themselves?

Thank you very much!

Hi,
I don't understand why single and multiple bond are considered the same as they have different electon "concentration", why aren't double bond more repulsive than single bond?

Thank you very much

Hi you should checkout this website (it explains everything really clearly, i usually go there when i'm looking for further info) I'm going to quote the important part of this article for your question: https://chem.libretexts.org/Textbook_Maps/Physical_and_Theoretical_Chemistry_Textbook_Maps/Supple...

Hi,

I was wondering if the peer learning session and office hours are maintain this monday and at the beggining of thanksgiving week?

Thank you!

If we have a chem discussion that day will it be canceled too? For all of my other classes, the discussions/labs have been canceled because half of the class would miss the discussion hours at the end of the week. I still think that you should email your TA to know about this since for chem the dis...

Hi,

I'm still really confused about how we should represent atoms that have either 3d or 4s shell.
Should we fill the 4s first and then then 3d? (4s^2, 3d^10) Or should we fill 3d before 4s? (3d^10,4s^2).

Thank you very much!

Hi!

When a question is asked with "the speed is 345m/s +/- 0.4,
Is the uncertainty in speed 0.4m/s or 0.8m/s?

Thank you very much!

Hi,

I was wondering if we were supposed to represent the lewis structure differently when there is a resonance.
Are we supposed to reprend each possibility, show the electron movement with arrow or draw half/ third bond (depending on the molecule)

Thank you very much!

Hi!

I was wondering why "after 4s state orbital occupied and e- enter 3d state, then 3d state is lower in energy than 4s".

Thank you very much!

Hi,

I was wondering what is the link between e- affinity and electronegativity?

Thank you very much!

Hi, I was wondering if anyone could explain me how we are supposed to use the shrodinger equation? On the syllabus it is written that we are supposed to understand : "the relationship between Schrodinger's equation (H ψ = E ψ), wave functions, and orbitals." Beside the fact that ᴪ^2 repres...

Hi,

I was wondering how we could determine the orbital position along the axis with the ml number.

Thank you very much!

Hi!

I was wondering if we should sign up for the peer session as i wanted to attend you session tomorrow,

Thank you very much!

During my discussion, the TA said that we should have the information required to find the n level. If you have done the A15 exercise in the book though, they says that the wavelenght studied is from the UV spectrum and this should be enought for you to state that it's from the lyman serie with n = 1

Im pretty sure this second test will pretty much cover the entire Quantum world unit we've been doing aka the majority if the video modules Pr. Lavelle said that we had to study the content until this friday lecture in class. I meant what are the formula and constants that were required to know. Ac...

Hi,

I asked this question to my TA on friday before TEST1 and she said that it's fine to write with a pencil as long as you can clearly read the answer.
It might depend on the person who correct the paper so i think that you should ask this question before taking the test.

I hope this will help!:)

Hi, I've worked on this exercise but i'm not sure that my way to approach the problem is the correct one. "In the ultraviolet spectrum of atomic hydrogen, a line is observed at 102.6nm. Determine the values of n for the initial and final energy levels of e- during the emission of energy that le...

Hi,

I wanted to know what is the requiered knowledge of formula/value for test on the Quantum chapter.
For example, is it requiered to know:
- the conversion from electrovolt to jouls
- the plank constant
- the mass of an electron
- the speed of light

...

Thank you very much

Hi, i am having trouble to post on the forum.
I'm able to respond any post but i don't know how to create an actual question post.
Can anyone help me with that?

Thank you!

This is a dilution problem, typicaly you have to use the following equality: C1.V1 = C2.V2 Here you have: C1 = 0.0380 = 3.80 x 10^-2 V1 = Unknown C2 = 1.50 x 10^-3 V2 = 250mL = 0.25 x 10^-3L You have 1 value that is unknown so you just transform the equality so that you end up with V1 = (C2.V2)/C1 a...

In this problem, you want to figure out the ratio (the empirical formula) between quantity (in mole) of Oxygen (O) and tin (Sn) in the oxide of tin. The step for this kind of problem are the following: - calculate the mass of each component: m (Sn) = 1.50g m (O) = 28.35g - (26.45 + 1.50 = 27.95 => m...
