Re: lone pairs

One example of this would be the the molecule H^2O. The central atom, oxygen has two bonds ( one with each hydrogen ) and two sets of lones pairs. Therefore the hybridization of oxygen would sp^3.

Re: Lone Pairs

One example of a specific lone pair placement would be that in a molecule with square pyramidal geometry, the lone pair would be on the axial plane rather than the equatorial plane.

Re: pi and sigma bonds

Pi bonds are essentially parallel bonds, so movement from the plane is difficult. However, it is important to note that there can be a strained double bonds that are slightly twisted

Re: Sigma vs pi bonds

Also, sigma bonds are generally more stable than pi bonds due to the fact that there is greater orbital overlap in sigma bonds

An atom with the same element would not be polar because there would be no difference in electronegativity.

Re: Question 3.87 (Sixth Edition)

To solve this problem it is important to look at the atomic radius.The shorter the atomic radius, the stronger the bond. This is because shorter bonds mean stronger bonds.

An example of this irregularity would be that that the electron configuration of Copper(Cu) would be [Ar]3d^10, 4s^1. Instead of having 9 electrons in the d subshell, the elements would be at a lower potential energy with 10 electrons, taking one away from the s subshell.

I'm assuming that you mean the diagonal relationship of electronegativity? What that means is that electronegativity increases as you move from left to right across a period and decreases as you move down a group. These average of those two trends lead to a diagonal trend line across the periodic ta...

Re: Module Question 29 (Part B)

The energy needed to remove an electron from one sodium atom is simply the work function converted to the right units(J/atom)
You would have to multiply 150.6 kg/mol by 1000 to get 150.6*10^3 J/mol. Then you would divide that number by Avagadro's constant to get the answer 2.5*10^-19 J/atom.

The solution's manual states that the conversion from tons to kilograms is 1-ton equals a 100 kilograms. However, when I searched it up, Google states that 1 ton is about 907 kilograms. Is it okay to use either conversion?
