Which of the following statements is(are) true? Correct the false statements. a. The molecules \(\mathrm{SeS}_{3}, \mathrm{SeS}_{2}, \mathrm{PCl}_{5}, \mathrm{TeCl}_{4}, \mathrm{ICl}_{3}\), and \(\mathrm{XeCl}_{2}\) all exhibit at least one bond angle which is approximately \(120^{\circ}\) b. The bond angle in \(\mathrm{SO}_{2}\) should be similar to the bond angle in \(\mathrm{CS}_{2}\) or \(\mathrm{SCl}_{2}\) c. Of the compounds \(\mathrm{CF}_{4}, \mathrm{KrF}_{4}\), and \(\mathrm{SeF}_{4}\), only \(\mathrm{SeF}_{4}\) exhibits an overall dipole moment (is polar). d. Central atoms in a molecule adopt a geometry of the bonded atoms and lone pairs about the central atom in order to maximize electron repulsions.
Write Lewis structures for \(\mathrm{CO}_{3}^{2-}, \mathrm{HCO}_{3}^{-}\), and \(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{CO}_{3}\). When acid is added to an aqueous solution containing carbonate or bicarbonate ions, carbon dioxide gas is formed. We generally say that carbonic acid \(\left(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{CO}_{3}\right)\) is unstable. Use bond energies to estimate \(\Delta H\) for the reaction (in the gas phase) $$ \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{CO}_{3} \longrightarrow \mathrm{CO}_{2}+\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O} $$ Specify a possible cause for the instability of carbonic acid.
The most common type of exception to the octet rule are compounds or ions with central atoms having more than eight electrons around them. \(\mathrm{PF}_{5}, \mathrm{SF}_{4}, \mathrm{ClF}_{3}\) and \(\mathrm{Br}_{3}^{-}\) are examples of this type of exception. Draw the Lewis structure for these compounds on ions. Which elements, when they have to, can have more than eight electrons around them? How is this rationalized?
Calcium carbonate \(\left(\mathrm{CaCO}_{3}\right)\) shells are used by many different types of animals to form protective coverings (including mollusks and bivalves, corals, and snails). Draw the Lewis structures for \(\mathrm{CaCO}_{3} .\) Be sure to include formal charges and any important resonance structures.
Use Coulomb's law, $$ V=\frac{Q_{1} Q_{2}}{4 \pi \varepsilon_{0} r}=2.31 \times 10^{-19} \mathrm{~J} \cdot \mathrm{nm}\left(\frac{Q_{1} Q_{2}}{r}\right) $$ to calculate the energy of interaction for the following two arrangements of charges, each having a magnitude equal to the electron charge.
