Document Summary

Answer each of the six questions with a few sentences or equations where necessary. (5 marks each) This happens because electrons are being added into the same principal shell, and therefore have about the same energies. However, the nuclear charge is also increasing, which attracts the electrons closer the nucleus, reducing the radius. An electron is added to molecule and the bond energy increases. Since the bond energy increased, the bond order must have increased. Thus the electron must have been added to a bonding molecular orbital. H2s is a molecule of the form ax2e2. The two lone pairs are closer to the s atom than the two bonding pairs. They therefore repel the bonding pairs more than the bonding pairs repel one another, pushing the two h atoms closer together, reducing the bond angle. Each of the bonds in bf3 is polar.
