Krishna Iyer answered |
The valence bond (VB) theory of bonding was mainly developed by Walter Heitler and Fritz London in 1927, and later modified by Linus Pauling to take bond direction into account. The VB approach concentrates on forming bonds in localized orbitals between pairs of atoms, and hence retains the simple idea of Lewis structures and electron pairs.

BeCl2 has no lone pairs on the beryllium. Thus, the electrons on the chlorides willtry to stay far apart from each other, since their corresponding electrons repel each other (while experiencing no deflection from electrons on a central atom). Thus themolecule is linear in shape.

Neha Joshi answered |
H2O>HF>NH3
Strength of hydrogen bonding depends on the size and electronegativity of the atom.
Smaller the size of the atom, greater is the electronegativity and hence stronger is the H−bonding. Thus, the order of strength of H-bonding is H...F>H...O>H...N.
But each HF molecule is linked only to two other HF molecules while each H2O molecule is linked to four other H2O molecules through H−bonding.
Hence, the decreasing order of boiling points is H2O>HF>NH3.

He then called up his associate Fritz London and they worked out the details of the theory over the course of the night. Later, Linus Pauling used the pair bonding ideas of Lewis together with Heitler–London theory to develop two other key concepts in VB theory: resonance (1928) and orbital hybridization (1930).

Pooja Shah answered |
Due to unpaired electron paramagnetic, N-atom in NO2 is electron deficie nt thus, to complete octet, dimer is formed.
In N2O4 formation, each N-atom gets
charge. Dipole-dipole repulsion increases (N— N) bond length which is larger than (N— N)covalent bond.
Thus, (a), (b), (c) and (d) are correct.

Arun Khanna answered |
The first carbon atom forms four sigma bonds, three with Hydrogen and one with carbon. So, the carbon here is sp3 hybridised.The second carbon atom forms three sigma bonds and one pi bond. The three sigma bonds can be possible only when carbon is sp2 hybridised. The fourth electron forms a pi overlap with an electron from third carbon atom.
Carbon atom 3 forms two sigma bonds and is sp hybridised. The two p electrons form a pi bond with p electrons of the neighbouring carbon atoms.Carbon atom 4 is similar to carbon 2, forms 3 sigma bonds and is sp2 hybridised.
As the aldehyde formed has molar mass of 44u, so the aldehyde is acetaldehyde or ethanal. The alkene that gives rise to ethanal, is but-2-ene. Ozonolysis leads to breaking the alkene molecule into two molecules at the double bond. As only one product, ethanal is formed, two carbon atoms surround the two sides of the double bond.

In structure I, octet of oxygen is complete but octet of carbon is incomplete. Hence, carbon is an acceptor of an electron pair from oxygen. Thus, covalency of carbon is three in CO.

Shreya Singh answered |
Oxygen is sp3 hybridised in H2O molecule..... and it should have tetrahedral structure with bond angle 109•28'...but The oxygen has 6 valence electrons and thus needs 2 more electrons from 2 hydrogen atoms to complete its octet. This then leaves two lone electron pairs that are not bonded to any other atoms. ....The 2 lone electron pairs exerts a little extra repulsion on the two bonding hydrogen atoms to create a slight compression to a 104obond angle......and because of this it acquires bent/v/angular shape..

Jyoti Kumar answered |
Explanation:
Calcium carbide is a chemical compound with the chemical formula CaC2. It is composed of calcium and two carbon atoms. The two carbon atoms in calcium carbide are bonded together, and the type of bond between them is determined by the way they share electrons.
The types of bonds between two carbon atoms in calcium carbide are:
1. Sigma Bond: A sigma bond is formed when two atoms overlap their atomic orbitals end to end, creating a single bond. In calcium carbide, there is one sigma bond between the two carbon atoms.
2. Pi Bond: A pi bond is formed when two atoms share electrons in parallel orbitals that overlap above and below the internuclear axis. In calcium carbide, there are two pi bonds between the two carbon atoms.
Therefore, the correct answer is option B, which is one sigma bond and two pi bonds between the two carbon atoms in calcium carbide.

In NO2(+) i.e. nitronium ion N-atom has sp-hybridisation ; so, it adopts linear geometry & O-N-O bond angle is 180 deg.
While, in NO2(–) i.e. nitrite ion, N–atom has sp2 hybridisation; so, it adopts bent geometry, for NO2–, actual O-N-O bond angle is 115 deg (yes, it's slightly deviated from expected 120deg because of repulsion between the interacting bond pairs and lone pair of electrons.

Anjana Sharma answered |
Attractive forces tend to bring two atoms close to each other whereas repulsive forces tend to move them away. In hydrogen, the magnitude of the new attractive forces is greater than that of new repulsive forces. As a result, two atoms come close to each other and potential energy decreases. The atoms approach each other until the equilibrium stage is reached where the net force of attraction balances the force of repulsion and system acquires minimum energy.

Sigma bond is always formed between two half-filled atomic orbitals along their internuclear axis.i.e the line joining the centres of the nuclei of two atoms(axial overlapping). 2py and 2py will not form a sigma bond because taking x-axis as the internuclear axis, there will be lateral (sideway) overlap between the two 2pv orbitals forming a straight pi bond.

A hydrogen bond is a weak type of force that forms a special type of dipole-dipole attraction which occurs when a hydrogen atom bonded to a strongly electronegative atom exists in the vicinity of another electronegative atom with a lone pair of electrons.
F is the most electronegative atom. Hence hydrogen bond is shortest in F - H ........F.

(a) BF₃ ⇒ 3bp + 0/p ⇒ sp³ -hybridisation and triagonal planar geometry.
(b) IF₃ ⇒ 3bp + 2/p ⇒ sp³d -hybridisation and T shape.
(c) NH₃ ⇒ 3bp + 1/p ⇒ sp³ -hybridisation and pyraminal geometry.
(d) PH₃ ⇒ 3bp + 1/p ⇒ sp³ -hybridisation and pyraminal geometry.
(b) IF₃ ⇒ 3bp + 2/p ⇒ sp³d -hybridisation and T shape.
(c) NH₃ ⇒ 3bp + 1/p ⇒ sp³ -hybridisation and pyraminal geometry.
(d) PH₃ ⇒ 3bp + 1/p ⇒ sp³ -hybridisation and pyraminal geometry.

Anjali Iyer answered |
The proportion of covalent character in an ionic bond is decided by polarisability of the metal cation as well as the electronegativity of both elements involved in bonding. Polarisability is further decided by the density of positive charge on the metal cation. AICI3 is considered to show maximum covalent character among the given compounds. This is because Al 3 + bears 3 unit of positive charge and shows strong tendency to distort the electron cloud, thus the covalent character in Al-CI bond dramatically increases.

When two atoms approach to form a bond, there is decrease in potential energy (PE). After bond formation, at a minimum distance (called bond length). PE further increases.
