The structure of \(\mathrm{TeF}_{5}-\) is Draw a complete Lewis structure for \(\mathrm{TeF}_{5}-\), and explain the distortion from the ideal square pyramidal structure. (See Exercise 116.)
Write Lewis structures that obey the octet rule for the following species. Assign the formal charge for each central atom. a. \(\mathrm{POCl}_{3} \quad\) c. \(\mathrm{ClO}_{4}^{-} \quad\) \(\mathrm{e} \cdot \mathrm{SO}_{2} \mathrm{Cl}_{2} \quad\) g. \(\mathrm{ClO}_{3}^{-}\) b. \(\mathrm{SO}_{4}^{2-} \quad\) d. \(\mathrm{PO}_{4}^{3-} \quad\) f. \(\mathrm{XeO}_{4} \quad\) h. \(\mathrm{NO}_{4}^{3-}\)
Give an example of an ionic compound where both the anion and the cation are isoelectronic with each of the following noble gases. a. \(\mathrm{Ne} \quad\) c. \(\mathrm{Kr}\) b. \(\mathrm{Ar} \quad\) d. \(\mathrm{Xe}\)
Predict the molecular structure (including bond angles) for each of the following. a. \(\mathrm{SeO}_{3}\) b. \(\mathrm{SeO}_{2}\)
The standard enthalpies of formation for \(\mathrm{S}(g), \mathrm{F}(g), \mathrm{SF}_{4}(g),\) and \(\mathrm{SF}_{6}(g)\) are \(+278.8,+79.0,-775,\) and \(-1209 \mathrm{kJ} / \mathrm{mol}\) respectively. a. Use these data to estimate the energy of an \(\mathrm{S}-\) F bond. b. Compare your calculated value to the value given in Table \(8.5 .\) What conclusions can you draw? c. Why are the \(\Delta H_{f}^{\circ}\) values for \(\mathrm{S}(g)\) and \(\mathrm{F}(g)\) not equal to zero, since sulfur and fluorine are elements?
