Chapter 1, Problem 1.40AP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The use of dipole moment of water to prove that it is not a linear molecule is to be explained.

Concept introduction:

The dipole moment is defined as the charge separation between two atoms in a covalent bond or between two ions in an ionic bond. It is used to determine the polarity of atoms or ions. If the value of dipole moment is zero, then the molecule is said to be non-polar, and if the value of dipole moment is not zero, then the molecule is said to be polar and possess permanent dipole moment.

Use the simulation to perform the following exercises for a real molecule. You may need to rotate the molecules in three dimensions to see certain dipoles.(a) Sketch the bond dipoles and molecular dipole (if any) for O3. Explain your observations.(b) Look at the bond dipoles for NH3. Use these dipoles to predict whether N or H is more electronegative.(c) Predict whether there should be a molecular dipole for NH3 and, if so, in which direction it will point. Check the molecular dipole box to test your hypothesis.
1.38,Assuming the following species consist of ions, write the valence electron configura- tions and (if appropriate) the Lewis symbols of the cations in (a) UF; (b) WF,; (c) SCI,: (d) CIO,.
(A) if both sentences are true, (B) if both sentences are false, (C) if the first sentence is true but the second is false, and (D) if the first sentence is false but the second is true. 1. Water appears in nature in all three common states of matter. Water is a tasteless, odorless liquid at standard temperature and pressure. 2.  The addition of salt in the distilling mixture made the water impure and saline. The addition of 5 drops of the silver nitrate solution into the distillate determines whether the distillate is impure or pure water. 3. The ideal electrical conductivity of totally pure water is 0.055 microSiemens, whereas typical deionized water has an electrical conductivity of 0.1 microSiemens. The freezing point of water at 1 atm is 100degC.  4.  From the air, oxygen can slowly diffuse across the water’s surface from the surrounding atmosphere, or be mixed in quickly through aeration, whether natural or man-made. The aeration of water can be caused by wind (creating waves),…
