Would the Lewis structure of a cation with a 1 charge contain one more electron or one less electron than the Lewis structure for the neutral species?
yup
What is the difference between nucleophiles and electrophiles?
electrophiles are the electron deficient species whereas nucleophiles are the electron rich specie .the other difference is that electrophiles are the electron loving species and nucleophile are electron hating.
Why is the bond lengths in PCl5 unequal?
The structures for the phosphorus chlorides are invariably consistent with VESPER theory. The structure of PCl5 depends on its environment. Gaseous and molten PCl5 is a neutral molecule with trigonal bipyramidal . The hypeRVALENT nature of this species can be explained with three-center four-electron bonding model. This trigonal bipyramidal structure persists in non-polar solvents, such as CS2 and CCl4.In the solid state PCl5 is ionic, formulated PCl4+ PCl6−.
Is NO2 a odd electron species?
Yes
Is Lewis acid a proton electron ion or a neutron?
None of them. A Lewis acid is a species which is an electron pair acceptor.
Would the Lewis structure of a cation with a 1 charge contain one more electron or one less electron than the Lewis structure for the neutral species?
yup
What is the meaning of electrophilic?
electrophilic addition reaction
Can an element be identified by the electron configuration?
Yes, but an electron configuration could be that of an ion. The identification of an element depends on the number of protons in its nucleus, so only when the species is also neutral can the electron configuration be used to identify it. Examples 1s2 2s2 2p6 is the electron configuration of Neon but also of F-. Take the superscripts and add them together to get the atomic number and if neutral must be Neon but if negative is that of F-
Is Ammonium ion a molecular ion?
The ammonnium ion NH4+ is a charged species, molecular ion, due to the fact the central atom nitrogen has insufficient non bonding electron pairs. For nitogen to be a neutral species is must contain one and only one non bonding pair. For example NH3 has three attached hydrogens and one non bonded electron pair. In contrast NH2- has to hydrogens attached and two non bonded electron pairs. The easy way way to remember the trend using the periodic table is CNOF 0123, where the letters stand for elements carbon to fluorine and the number trend that follows is the number of non bonded pairs required for a neutral species.
What is the difference between nucleophiles and electrophiles?
electrophiles are the electron deficient species whereas nucleophiles are the electron rich specie .the other difference is that electrophiles are the electron loving species and nucleophile are electron hating.
What is happening with the electrons in ionic bonding?
In ionic bonding the electron rich species donates electron to the electron lacking species.in this process the electron donating species converts into cation by loosing electron and electron accepting species converts into anion by accepting electron.the ions now combine to from a ionic compound by releasing lattice energy
The final reduced species in the electron transport chain is?
The final reduced species in the electron transport chain is water.
What is electrically neutral species?
neutron
What is the base in a reaction?
The base in a chemical reaction is the species that either (a) accepts a proton, (b) produces an OH- ion, or (c) is an electron donor.
Do aerobic bacterial species have identical electron acceptors in their electron transport systems?
false
