CHEMICAL BONDING & MOLECULAR STRUCTURE

Chemical Bond is the physical process responsible for the attractive interactions between atoms and molecules, and that which confers stability to diatomic and polyatomic chemical compounds. The explanation of the attractive forces is a complex area that is described by the laws of quantum electrodynamics. In general, strong chemical bonding is associated with the sharing or transfer of electrons between the participating atoms. The study on the “nature of forces that hold or bind atoms together to form a molecule” is required to gain knowledge of the following i) To know about how atoms of same element form different compounds combining with different elements. ii) To know why particular shapes are adopted by molecules. iii) To understand the specific properties of molecules or ions and the relation between the specific type of bonding in the molecules.

Kossel-Lewis approach to Chemical Bonding In 1916, W.Kossel and G.N.Lewis, separately developed theories of chemical bonding inorder to understand why atoms combined to form molecules. Lewise introduced simple symbols to denote the electron present in the outer orbit of atom , these electron are known as valence electrons. These symbols are known as electron dot symbols and the structure of compound is known as Lewis dot structure. H H C H The number of dots around the symbol The electron dot structure of on then is given as H equal to number of electrons.

Ionic Bond or Electrovalent Bond An ion is an atom or group of atoms which has acquired charge due to the loss or gain of one or more electrons. When an atom gains an electron to form a negative ion (anion), it will increase in size. On the other hand, when an atom loses an electron to give positive ion (cation), it will contract. The electron lost or gained is always from the outermost shell. When two atoms, one of which can lose one or more electrons to attain a noble gas configuration and the other can receive these electrons and thereby acquire a noble gas configuration, they are said to be bonded by an ionic bond. Since the loss and gain of electrons by atoms results in the formation of ions, ionic bond is formed when two ions interact with each other and are thus held together by electrostatic attraction. The formation of potassium chloride (KCl), is illustrated below. +

From the above illustrations, it is clear that the formation of an ionic compound is obviously related to the ease of formation of the cations and anions from the neutral atom, which depends on two main factors: i) Ionization energy: Lower the value of ionization energy of an atom, greater will be the ease of formation of the cation from it. ii) Electron affinity: Higher the electron affinity of an atom, greater the ease of formation of the anion from it.

Lattice Energy When one mole of an ionic solid is formed from its constituent gaseous ions, the energy released is called the lattice energy. Energetics of Formation of Ionic Substances: The energy included in the formation of an ionic compound from its constituent elements may be considered as shown by the Born-Haber Cycle for the formation of one mole of sodium chloride from sodium and chlorine.

Where S = heat of sublimation of sodium metal I = ionization energy of sodium D = heat of dissociation of molecular chlorine EA = electron affinity of chlorine, and U = lattice energy of sodium chloride The amount of heat liberated in the overall reaction is the heat of formation of sodium chloride. From the above DH¦ = S + I +

1 D – EA – U 2

The most important of these energy terms are I, EA and U, since these are considerably greater than the remaining terms S and D. More the negative value of the heat of formation, greater would be the stability of the ionic compound produced. Thus on the basis of the above equation, formation of an ionic compound is favoured by a) low ionization energy (I) of the metal. b) high electron affinity (EA) of the other element. c) higher lattice energy (U) of the resulting compound. Formation of Ions with Higher Charges: Formation of a cation with unit positive charge is easy if the first ionization energy is low as in the case of alkali metals. Alkaline earth metals ionizes in two successive steps. Mg ¾ ¾® Mg+ + e– Mg+ ¾ ¾® Mg2+ + e– But energy needed to ionize alkaline earth metals are higher than alkali metals. However, bipositive ions like Mg2+, Ca2+, Sr2+ and Ba2+ are quite common. Formation of a tripositive ion like Al3+ requires much more energy (= 5138 kJ) which is not available ordinarily. Successive ionization energies of aluminium are: E1 E1 = 577kJ Al ¾¾® Al + + e E2 Al+ ¾¾ ® Al2 + + e -

E2 = 1816kJ

E3 E3 = 2745kJ Al2+ ¾¾ ® Al3+ + e It is on this account that most of aluminium compounds are covalent. In solution, however, aluminium is known to give hydrated ions [Al.6H2O]3+. This is possible because of the high heat of hydration of Al3+. The energy liberated during hydration of ions is sufficient for ionization. Similarly, anions with unit negative charge (e.g. Cl–1, Br–, I–) are very common. This is because the electron affinity of these atoms is positive and quite high. Formation of anions carrying two units of negative charge (e.g. S2–, O2–) is not so easy as their electron affinities are negative i.e., energy is needed to add second electron. Formation of anions carrying three units of negative charge (e.g. N3–, P3–) is almost rare.

Characteristics of Electrovalent Compounds Melting and Boiling Point: Due to the strong electrostatic force between the ions in a crystal of an electrovalent compound.The energy needed to overcome these forces and break down the crystal lattice. Hence such compounds possess high melting and boiling points. Electrical Conductivity: When an electrovalent compound is molten or dissolved in a solvent of high dielectric constant e.g., water, the binding forces in the crystal lattice disappear and the component ions become mobile. Under the influence of applied electrical field, the ions get charged and thus act as charge carrier of the current. Hence their molten forms or solutions conduct electricity. Solubility: Ionic compounds are soluble in polar solvents like water because of molecules of the polar solvent interact strongly with the ions of the crystal and the solvation energy is sufficient to overcome the attraction between the ions in the crystal lattice. Dissolution is also favoured by the high dielectric constant of the solvents such as water, since this weakens the interionic attractions in the resulting solutions. Non-polar solvents like benzene and carbon tetrachloride do not solvate the ions as their dielectric constants are low. Ionic compounds are, therefore insoluble in non-polar solvents. Ionic compounds like sulphates and phosphates of barium and strontium are insoluble in water (because lattice energy is greater than hydration energy). This can be attributed to the high lattice energies of these compounds due to polyvalent nature of both the cation and the anion. In these cases, hydration of ions fails to liberate sufficient energy to offset the lattice energy.

Bond angle The angle between two bonds sharing a common atom is known as the bond angle. Bond angle depends on the geometry of the molecule. For example the bond angle in tetrahedral geometry is 109028’ while bond angle in planer geometry is 1200 . bond angle is also depands on the identity of atoms bonded for example the geometry of NH3 and NF3 is same but bond angle of NH3 is greater than NF3 because F has higher electronegativity than H, the electron pair is attracted more towards F in NF3 i.e. the bond pairs of electrons are away from N or in other words distance between bond pairs ion is more. Hence repulsion between bond pairs in NF3 is less than NH3. Hence the lone pair repels the bond pairs of NF3 more than it does in NH3. As a result, the bond angle decreases to 102.4°. Whereas in NH3 it decreases to 107.3° only.

Illustration : 3 Explain why bond angle of PH3 is less than that of PF3. Solution : PH3 and PF3 are pyramidal in shape with one lone pair on P. But PF3 has greater bond angle than PH3 (opposite to NH3 and NF3). This is due to resonance in PF3, leading to [4 of 35]

As result repulsions between P – F bonds are large and hence the bond angle is large. There is no possibility of formation of double bonds in PH3.

Covalent Bond (By Mutual Sharing of Electrons) The covalent bond is formed when two atoms achieve stability by the sharing of an electron pair, each contributing one electron to the electron pair. The arrangement of electrons in a covalent molecule is often shown by a Lewis structure in which only valency shells (outer shells) are depicted. For sake of clarity, the electrons on different atoms are denoted by dots and crosses. Polarity of Bonds: A covalent bond is set up by sharing of electrons between two atoms. It is further classified as polar or non-polar depending upon the fact whether the electron pair is shared unequally between the atoms or shared equally. For example, the covalent bonds in H2 and Cl2 are called non-polar as the electron pair is equally shared between the two atoms.

F d

In the case of hydrogen fluoride the bond is polar as the electron pair is unequally shared. Fluorine has a greater attraction for electrons or has higher electronegativity than hydrogen and the shared pair of electrons is nearer to the fluorine atom than hydrogen atom. The hydrogen end of the molecule, therefore, appears positive with respect to fluorine. Bond polarities affect both physical and chemical properties of compounds containing polar bond. The polarity of a bond determines the kind of reaction that can take place at that bond and even affects the reactivity at nearby bonds. The polarity of bonds can lead to polarity of molecules and affect melting point, boiling point and solubility

Characteristics of Covalent Compounds Melting Point and Boiling Point: In covalent compounds, except those consisting of giant molecules, the molecules are less powerfully attracted to each other, as a result of which their melting points and boiling points are relatively low compared to ionic compounds, e.g.,

SiCl 4 (b.p. = 33K) and NaCl (b.p. = 1713K) (Covalent compound)

(ionic compound)

Conductivity: Covalent substances (whether of the “molecular lattice” or “giant molecule” type) do not conduct electricity in the fused state since there are no free electrons or ions to carry the current. However, substances like graphite which consists of separate layers conduct electricity because the electrons have a passage in between the two flat layers. Solubility: The characteristic solubility of covalent compounds in non-polar solvents such as benzene and carbon tetrachloride can be described to the similar covalent nature of the molecules of solute and solvent (i.e., like dissolves like). Covalent compounds in solution react more slowly as compared with the ionic compounds which react instantaneously in solution. The solubility of covalent compounds is, however, very much dependent upon the size of the molecule. Thus covalent substances having giant molecules are insoluble in virtually all solvents due to the big size of the molecule unit.

Fajan’s Rules When two oppositely charged ions approach each other closely, the positively charged cation attracts the outermost electrons of the anion and repel its positively charged nucleus. This [5 of 35]

IIT Package (2009-10) from NOIDA

results in the distortion or polarization of the anion followed by some sharing of electrons between the two ions, i.e., the bond becomes partly covalent in character. The magnitude of polarization depends upon following factors : i) Charge on Either of the ions: As the charge on the cation increases, its tendency to polarize the anion increases. This brings more and more covalent nature in the electrovalent compound. Whereas with the increasing charge of anion, its ability to get polarized, by the cation, also increases. For example, in the case of NaCl, MgCl2 and AlCl3 the polarization increases, thereby covalent character becomes more and more as the charge on the cation increases. Similarly, lead forms two chlorides PbCl2 and PbCl4 having charges +2 and +4 respectively. PbCl4 shows covalent nature. Similarly among NaCl, Na2S, Na3P, the charge of the anions are increasing, therefore the increasing order of covalent character. NaCl < Na2S < Na3P ii) Size of the cation: Polarisation of the anion increases as the size of the cation decreases i.e., the electrovalent compounds having smaller cations show more of the covalent nature. For example, in the case of halides of alkaline earth metals, the covalent character decreases as we move down the group. Hence melting point increases in the order of BeCl2 < MgCl2 < CaCl2 < SrCl2 < BaCl2 iii) Size of anion: The larger the size of the anion, more easily it will be polarized by the cation i.e., as the size of the anion increases for a given cation, the covalent character increases. For example, in the case of halides of calcium, the covalent character increases from F– anion to I– anion i.e. CaF < CaCl < CaBr < CaI increasing covalent character

Similarly, in case of trihalides of aluminium, the covalent character increases with increase in size of halide anion i.e. AlF3

Covalent character increases as the size of the halide ion increases

iv) Nature of the cation: Cations with 18 electrons (s2p6d10) in outermost shell polarize an anion more strongly than cations of 8 electrons (s2p6) type. The d electrons of the 18 electron shell screen the nuclear charge of the cation less effectively than the s and p electrons of the 18-electron shell. Hence the 18-electron cations behave as if they had a greater charge. Copper (I) and Silver (I) halides are more covalent in nature compared with the corresponding sodium and potassium halides although charge on the ions is the same and the sizes of the corresponding ions are similar. This illustrates the effect of 18-electron configuration of Cu+ (3s2, p6, d10) and Ag+ (4s2, p6, d10) ions. Illustration : 4 The decomposition temperature of Li2CO3 is less than that of Na2CO3. Explain. Solution: As Li+ ion is smaller than Na+ ion, thus small cation (Li+) will favour more covalent character in Li2CO3 and hence it has lower decomposition temperature than that of Na2CO3. Dipole Moment: It is vector quantity and is defined as the product of the magnitude of charge on any of the atom and the distance between the atoms. It is represented by m . Magnitude of dipole moment | m |= ( chargeqin esu)´ ( Dis tanrce in A ) The unit = 10–18 (esu) cm (D) is used in practice. In SI units charge q is measured in coulombs (C) and the distance, r in metre, m 1C = 2.998 × 109 esu and 1 m = 102 cm \ 1 Cm = 2.998 × 109 × 102 = 2.998 × 1011 (esu) cm Therefore in SI system, the unit of dipole moment is coulomb metre [6 of 35]

The interatomic distance + – K and Cl ion in KCl is 260 pm. Calculate the dipole moments of KCl, if there were opposite charges of the fundamental unit located at each nucleus. Calculate the percentage ionic character of KCl. Solution: From the given data q = 1.602 × 10–19C r = 260 pm = 260 × 10–12 m = 2.6 × 10–10 m Magnitude of dipole moment for 100% ionic character |m| = qr = (1.602 × 10–19) (2.6 × 10–10) = 4.165 × 10–29 Cm Actual dipole moment = 3.336 × 10–29 Cm \ % of ionic bond =

3.336 ´ 10 -29 ´ 100 = 80.1% 4.165 ´ 10 -29

The bond is 80.1% ionic. In general a polar bond is established between two atoms of different radii and different electronegativities while positive centres (nuclei) of different magnitudes combine to share an electron pair. Greater the values of the dipole moment, greater is the polarity of the bond. The following points may be borne in mind regarding dipole moments: i) In case a molecule contains two or more polar bonds, its dipole moment is obtained by the vectorial addition of the dipole moments of the constituent bonds. ii) A symmetrical molecule is non-polar even though it contains polar bonds. For example, carbon dioxide, methane and carbon tetrachloride, being symmetrical molecules, have zero dipole moments. Dipole moment of methyl chloride is a vectorial addition of dipole moments of three C – H bonds and one C – Cl bond. H

Dipole moments of some molecules

Dipole moment gives valuable information about the structure of molecules. For example, carbon dioxide is assigned a linear structure since its dipole moment is zero. We have seen that in a polar covalent bond between two atoms (say A and B), there is a partial separation of charge. This bond is, therefore, said to have a partial ionic character. Greater the difference of electronegativity between A and B, greater is the degree of ionic character (or polarity measured by dipole moment of AB) of the bond. Pauling gave a fairly accurate rule by which the nature of the bond can be predicted. According to this rule, “If the difference on the electronegativity scale between the two atoms is 1.9, the bond is 50% ionic in character. When [7 of 35]

IIT Package (2009-10) from NOIDA

the difference is greater than 1.9, the bond is correspondingly more ionic”. For example, when the electro negativity difference is 0.8, 1.2, 2.2 and 2.6, the corresponding partial ionic character is 12%, 25%, 61% and 74% respectively. Illustration : 6 The resultant dipole moment of water is 1.85D ignoring the effects of lone pair.

Coordinate Bond It is a special type of covalent bond in which both the shared electrons are contributed by one atom only. It may be defined as “a covalent bond in which both electrons of the shared pair are contributed by one of the two atoms”. Such a bond is also called as dative bond. A coordinate or a dative bond is established between two such atoms, one of which has a complete octet and possesses a pair of valence electrons while the other is short of a pair of electrons. xx

Characteristics of Coordinate Compounds: The properties of coordinate compounds are intermediate between the properties of electrovalent compounds and covalent compounds. The main properties are described below: i) Melting and Boiling Points: Their melting and boiling points are higher than purely covalent compounds and lower than ionic compounds. ii) Solubility: These are sparingly soluble in polar solvents like water but readily soluble in nonpolar (organic) solvents. iii) Conductivity: Like covalent compounds, these are also bad conductors of electricity. The solutions or fused mass do not allow the passage of electricity. Illustration : 7 Which of the following compound contains both ionic as well as covalent bonds only .

Valence Bond Theory This theory was proposed by Linus Pauling, who was awarded the Noble Prize for chemistry 1954. Atoms with unpaired electrons tend to combine with other atoms which also have unpaired electrons. In this way the unpaired electrons are paired up, and the atoms involved, all attain a stable electronic arrangement. This is usually a full shell of electrons(i.e. a noble gas configuration). Two electrons shared between two atoms constitute a bond. The number of bonds formed by an atom is usually the same as the number of unpaired electrons in the ground state, i.e. the lowest energy state. However, in some cases the atom may form more bonds than this. This occurs by excitation of the atom (i.e. providing it with energy) when electrons which were paired in the ground state are unpaired and promoted into suitable empty orbitals. This increases the number of unpaired electrons, and hence it increases number of bond which can be formed. A covalent bond results from the pairing of electrons (one from each atom). The spins of the two electrons must be opposite (antiparallel) because of the Pauli exclusion principle that no two electrons in one atom can have all four quantum numbers the same. 1. In HF, H has a singly occupied s-orbital that overlaps with a singly filled 2p orbital on F. 2. In H2O, the O atom has two singly filled 2p orbitals, each of which overlaps with a single occupied s-orbital from two H atoms. 3. In NH3, there are three singly occupied p orbitals on N which overlap with s orbitals from three H atoms. 1

4. In CH4, the C atom in its ground state has the electronic configuration 1s2, 2s2, 2p1x , 2p y and only has two unpaired electrons, and so can form only two bonds. If the C atom is excited, 1

then the 2s electrons may be unpaired, giving 1s2, 2s1, 2p1x , 2p y , 2p1x . There are now four unpaired electrons which overlap with singly occupied s orbitals on four H atoms. 2p 2s

CH4 molecule uses its three p-orbitals px, py and pz, which are mutually at right angles to each other, and the s orbital is spherically symmetrical. Hence they form tetrahedral structure. CH4 H – C – H = 109°28¢ Sigma and Pi Bonds (S and P Bonds) A covalent bond is formed by the overlapping of atomic orbitals. Covalent bonds formed are of two types depending upon the way the orbitals overlap each other. 1. Sigma bond (s bond): The bond formed by the overlapping of two half filled atomic orbitals along their axis is known as sigma bond. s bond is a strong bond because overlapping in it takes place to large extent. The hybrid orbitals always from s bond. a) s – s overlapping

2. Pi bond (p bond): The bond formed by the lateral overlapping of half filled atomic orbitals is known as pi bond. The sidewise overlapping takes place to less extent. Therefore, p bond formed is a weak bond. p bond overlapping takes place only at the sides of two lobes. A p bond is formed when a s bond already exists between the combining atoms.

Hybridisation It is the mathematically fabricated concept that is introduced to explain the geometry/shapes of the covalent molecules of polyatomic ions containing covalent bonds. It is a process of intermixing of atomic orbitals with small difference in energy and belonging to the same atom, at the time of bonding so as to give another set of orbitals with equivalent shapes and energies. sp3 Hybridisation: In ground state, the electronic configuration of carbon is 1s2, 2s2, 2p2. It is proposed that from 2s orbital, being quite near in energy to 2p orbitals, one electron may be promoted to the vacant 2pz orbital thus obtaining the excited atom. At this stage the carbon atom undoubtedly has four half-filled orbitals and can form four bonds. In the excited atom, all the four valence shell orbitals may mix up to give four identical sp3 hybrid orbitals. Each of these four sp3 orbital possesses one electron and overlaps with 1s orbitals of four H atoms thus forming four equivalent bonds in methane molecule. Due to the tetrahedral disposition of sp3 hybrid orbitals, the orbital are inclined at an angle of 109° 28’. Thus all the H– C– H angles are equal to 109° 28’

Shape and formation of methane molecule 2 sp Hybridisation: When three out of the four valence obritals of carbon atom in excited state hybridize, we have three sp2 hybrid orbitals lying in a plane and inclined at an angle of 120°. If 2s and 2p, orbitals of the excited carbon atom are hybridized, the new orbitals lie in the xy plane while the fourth pure 2pz orbitals lies at right angles to the hybridized orbitals with its two lobes disposed above and below the plane of hybrid orbitals. Two such carbon atoms are involved in the formation of alkenes (compounds having double bonds). In the formation of ethene two carbon atoms (in sp2 hybridization state) form one sigma bond by ‘head-on’ overlap of two sp2 orbitals contributed one each by the two atoms. The remaining two sp2 orbitals of each carbon form s bonds with H atoms. The unhybridized 2p, orbitals of the two carbon atoms undergo a side-wise overlap forming a p bond. Thus the carbon to carbon double bond in ethene is made of one s bond and one p bond. Since the energy of a p bond is less than that of a s bond, the two bonds constituting the ethene molecule are not identical in strength. The molecule is a planar one. Pure p-orbital

O O Illustration : 8 Ether R R and water H H have same hybridization at oxygen. What angle would you expect for them. Solution: In H2O bond angle is less than 109°28¢ due to lone pair and bond pair repulsion. But in ether, due to strong mutual repulsion between two alkyl groups bond angle becomes greater then 109°28¢. Illustration : 9 In following which central atom has different hybridization than other Cl2O, OF2, H2O, SO2. Solution: SO2; because it has sp2 hybridisation other three have sp3 hybridisation. Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion (VSEPR) Theory In 1957 Gillespie and Nyhom gave this theory to predict and explain molecular shapes and bond angles more exactly. The theory was developed extensively by Gillespie as the Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion (VSEPR) theory. This may be summarized as: 1. The shape of the molecule is determined by repulsions between all of the electron pairs present in the valence shell. 2. A lone pair of electrons takes up more space round the central atom than a bond pair, since the lone pair is attracted to one nucleus whilst the bond pair is shared by two nuclei. It follows that repulsion between two lone pairs is greater than repulsion between a lone pair and a bond pair, which in turn is greater than the repulsion between two bond pairs. Thus the presence of lone pairs on the central atom causes slight distortion of the bond angles from the ideal shape. If the angle between a lone pair, the central atom and a bond pair is increased, it follows that the actual bond angles between the atoms must be decreased. The order of repulsion between lone pairs and bond pairs of electrons follows the order as: Lone pair - lone pair repulsion > lone pair – bond pair repulsion > bond pair – bond pair repulsion. 3. The magnitude of repulsions between bonding pairs of electrons depends on the electronegativity difference between the central atom and the other atoms. 4. Double bonds cause more repulsion than single bonds, and triple bonds cause more repulsion than a double bond. Effect of Lone Pairs: Molecules with four electron pairs in their outer shell are based on a tetrahedron. In CH4 there are four bonding pairs of electrons in the outer shell of the C atom, and the structure is a regular tetrahedron with bond angle H – C – H of 109°28’. In NH3 and N atom has four electron pairs in the outer shell, made up of three bond pairs and one lone pair. Because of the lone pair, the bond angle H – N – H is reduced from the theoretical tetrahedral angle of 109°28’ to 107°28’. In H2O the O atom has four electron pairs in the outer shell. The shape of the H2O molecule is based on a tetrahedron with two corners occupied by bond pairs and the other two corners occupied by lone pairs. The presence of two lone pairs reduces the bond angle further to 104°27’. In a similar way, SF6 has six bond pairs in the outer shell and is a regular octahedron with bond angles of exactly 90°. In BrF5, the Br also has six outer pairs of electrons, made up of five bond pairs and one lone pair. The lone pair reduces the bond angles to 84°30’. Whilst it might be expected that two lone pairs would distort the bond angles in an octahedral as in XeF4 but it is [13 of 35]

IIT Package (2009-10) from NOIDA

not so. Actual bond angle is 90°, reason being that the lone pairs are trans to each other in the octahedron, and hence the atoms have a regular square planar arrangement. Molecules with five pairs of electrons are all based on a trigonal bipyramid. Lone pairs distort the structures as before. The lone pairs always occupy the equatorial positions (in an triangle), rather than the axial positions (up and down).Thus in I3– ion, the central I atom has five electron pairs in the outer shell, made of two bond pairs and three lone pairs. The lone pairs occupy all three equatorial positions and the three atoms occupy the top, middle, and bottom positions in the trigonal bipyramid, thus giving a linear arrangement with a bond angle of exactly 180°. Effect of Electronegativity: NF3 and NH3 both have structures based on a tetrahedron with one corner occupied by a lone pair. The high electronegativity of F push the bonding electrons further away from N than in NH3. Hence the lone pair in NF3 causes a greater distortion from tetrahedral and gives a F – N – F bond angle of 102°30’, compared with 107°48’ in NH3. The same effect is found in H2O (bond angle 104°27’) and F2O (bond angle 102°). The effects of bonding and lone pairs on bond angles Compound

Some examples using the VSEPR Theory

Cl

Phosphorus pentachloride PCl5: Gaseous PCl5 is covalent. (The electronic structure P is 1s22s22p63s23p3). All five outer electrons are used to form bonds to the five Cl atoms. In the PCl5 molecule the valence shell of the P atom contains five electron pairs: hence the structure is a trigonal bipyramid. There are no lone pairs, so the structure is not distorted. However, a trigonal bipyramid is not a completely regular structure, since some bond angels are 90° and others 120°. Symmetrical structures are usually more stable than asymmetrical ones.

Chlorine trifluoride ClF3: The chlorine atom is at the centre of the molecule and determines its shape. The electronic configuration of Cl is 1s22s22p63s23p5. Three electrons form bonds to F, and four electrons do not take part in bonding. Thus in ClF3, the Cl atom has five electron pairs

[14 of 35]

in the outer shell, hence the structure is a trigonal bipyramid. There are three bond pairs and two lone pairs. It was noted previously that a trigonal bipyramid is not a regular shape since the bond angles are not all the same. It therefore follows that all the corners are not equivalent. Lone pair occupy two of the corners, and F atoms occupy the other three corners. Three different arrangements are theoretically possible, as shown in figure below. The most stable structure will be the one of lowest energy, that is the one with the minimum repulsion between the five orbitals. The great repulsion occurs between two lone pairs. Lone pair bond pair repulsions are next strongest, and bond pair-bond pair repulsions are weakest. Groups at 90° repel each other strongly, whilst groups 120° apart repel each other much less. F

Structure I is the most symmetrical, but has six 90° repulsions between lone pairs and atoms. Structure II has one 90° repulsion between two lone pairs, plus three 90° repulsions between lone pairs and atoms. These factors indicate that structure III is the most probable. The observed bond angles are 80°40¢, which is close to the theoretical 90°. This confirms that the correct structure is III, and the slight distortion from 90° is caused by the presence of the two lone pairs. As a general rule, if lone pairs occur in a trigonal bipyramid they will be located in the equatorial position (round the middle) rather than the axial positions (top and bottom), since this arrangement minimizes repulsive forces.

Sulphur hexafluoride SF6: The electronic structure of S is S 1s22s22p63s23p6. All six of the outer electrons are used to form bonds with the F atoms. Thus in SF6, the S has six electron pairs F F in the outer shell: hence the structure is octahedral. There are no lone pairs, so the structure is completely regular with bond angles F of 90°.

Molecular Orbital Theory Why He2 molecule does not exist and why O2 is paramagnetic? These questions cannot be explained by valence bond theory. In 1932 F. Hund and R.S. Mulliken put forward a theory [15 of 35]

IIT Package (2009-10) from NOIDA

known as Molecular Orbital Theory to explain above questions and many others. According to this theory, as the electrons of an atom are present in various atomic orbitals, electrons of a molecule are present in various molecular orbitals. Molecular orbitals are formed by the combination of atomic orbitals of comparable energy and proportional symmetry. While an electron in atomic orbital is influenced by one nucleus, in a molecular orbital, it is influenced by two or more nuclei depending upon the number of atoms in the molecule. Thus, an atomic orbital is monocentric while a molecular orbital is polycentric. The number of molecular orbitals formed is equal to the number of combining atomic orbitals. When two atomic orbitals combine, two molecular orbitals are formed. One is known as bonding molecular orbital (BMO) whereas other is anti-bonding molecular orbital (ABMO). BMO has lower energy and hence greater stability than the corresponding ABMO. First BMO are filled, then ABMO starts filling because BMO has lower energy than that of ABMO. Molecular orbitals like the atomic orbitals are filled in accordance with the Aufbau Principle obeying the Pauli’s Principle and the Hund’s rule. Order of energy of various molecular orbitals is as follows: For O2 and higher molecules s1s, s*1s, s2s, s*2s, s2px, [p2py = p2pz], [p*2py = p*2pz], s*2px For N2 and lower molecules s1s, s*1s, s2s, s*2s, [p2py = p2pz], s2px, [p*2py = p*2pz], s*2px Bond Order: It may be defined as the half the difference between the number of electrons present in the bonding orbitals and the anti-bonding orbitals i.e. Bond order (B.O.) =

No. of electrons in BMO - No. of electrons in ABMO 2

A positive bonding order suggest a stable molecule while a negative bond order or zero bond order suggest an unstable molecule. Magnetic Behaviour: If all the molecular orbitals in species are spin paired, the substance is diamagnetic. However, if one or more molecular orbitals are singly occupied it is paramagnetic. Illustration : 10 Arrange the species O2, O2–, O22– and O2+ in the decreasing order of bond order and stability and also indicate their magnetic properties. Solution: The molecular orbital configuration of O2, O2–, O22– and O22+ are as follows: O2 = s1s2, s*1s2, s2s2, s*2s2, s2px2, p2py2, p2pz2, p*2py1 = p*2pz1 Bond order =

10 - 6 = 2 , No. of unpaired electrons = 2 2

\ paramagnetic O2– = s1s2, s*1s2, s2s2, s*2s2, s2px2, p2py2, p2pz2, p*2py2 = p*2pz1

10 - 5 = 1.5 , No. of unpaired electrons = 1 2 \ paramagnetic Bond order =

O22– = s1s2, s*1s2, s2s2, s*2s2, s2px2, p2py2, p2pz2, p*2py2 = p*2pz2 Bond order =

10 - 8 = 1 , No. of unpaired electrons = 0 2

\ diamagnetic O2+ = s1s2, s*1s2, s2s2, s*2s2, s2px2, p2py2, p2pz2, p*2py1 = p*2pz0 Bond order =

10 - 5 = 2.5 , No. of unpaired electrons = 1 2

\ paramagnetic [16 of 35]

IIT Package (2009-10) from NOIDA

Now as the bond order decreases in the order O2+ > O2 > O2– > O22– So, same will be the stability order of the above species because stability is directionally proportional to bond order. Note: Bond length is inversely proportional to bond order. Illustration : 11 Correct order of bond energy is: + (A) N2 > N2 > N2– > N22– (B) N2+ > N2– > N22– > N2 – + 2– (C) N2 > N2 = N2 > N2 (D) N2– > N2 = N2+ > N22– + – Solution: Bond order of N2 = 3, N2 , N2 = 2.5, N22– = 2 But N2– has more electrons in ABMO than N2+ so correct order of bond energy will be N2 > N2+ > N2– > N22–

Hydrogen Bonding In 1920, Latimer and Rodebush introduced the idea of “hydrogen bond” to explain the nature of association in liquid state of substance like water, hydrogen fluoride, ammonia, formic acid etc. In a hydrogen compound, when hydrogen is bonded to highly electronegative atom (such as F, O, N) by a covalent bond, the electron pair is attracted towards electronegative atom so strongly that a dipole results i.e., one end carries a positive charge (H-end) and other end carries a negative charge (X-end). dX

The attractive force that binds hydrogen atom of one molecule with electronegative atom of the other molecule of the same or different substance is known as hydrogen bond.

This type of hydrogen bonding increases the boiling point of the compound and also its solubility in water. The increase in boiling point is due to association of several molecules of the compound. b) Intramolecular hydrogen bonding: This type of bonding results between hydrogen and an electronegative element both present in the same molecule. This type of bonding is generally present in organic compounds. Examples are o-nitro-phenol, o-hydroxy benzoic acid, etc. O N

This type of bonding decreases the boiling point of the compound. The solubility of the compound also decreases. Hence compound becomes more volatile.

Properties Explained by Hydrogen Bonding a) Strength of certain acids and bases can be explained on the basis of hydrogen bonding. b) Solubility: An organic substance is said to be insoluble in water if it does not form hydrogen bonding with water. The organic compound like alkanes, alkenes, ethers, etc., are insoluble in water as they do not form hydrogen bonding with water, while alcohols and acids are soluble because they readily form hydrogen bonds with water. i) Melting and boiling points of hydrides of N, O and F. If the melting points and boiling points of the hydrides of the elements of IVA, VA, VIA and VIIA groups are plotted against the molecular weights of these hydrides, we shall get the plots as shown in figure (a) and (b). From these plots it may be seen that although in case of SbH3, AsH3, PH3 (VA group elements hydrides), H2Te, H2Se, H2S (VI A group elements hydrides) and HI, HBr, HCl (VIII group elements hydrides) there is a progressive decrease in their mp’s and b.p’s with the decrease in their molecular weights, the mp’s and b.p’s of NH3, H2O and HF hydrides suddenly increase with a further decrease of their molecular weights. The sudden increase in mp’s and bp’s in these hydrides is due to the inter-molecular H-bonding in between H and F in case of HF, in between H and O in case of H2O and in between H and N in case of NH3 respectively. The existence of H-bonding in these molecules gives polymerized molecules (NH3)n. Thus mp’s and bp’s of these molecules are suddenly raised. Having no power to form H-bonds, the simple carbon family hydrides (SnH4, GeH4, SiH4 and CH4) show a decrease in their bp’s and mp’s with the decrease in their molecular weights. 100

ii) Ice has less density H H than water. The explanation of this fact is as 2.76 Å 1.80Å follows: In the crystal structure of ice, the OOpen cage-like tetrahedral crystal structure H of ice. Circles indicate oxygen atoms. 0.96Å 0.96Å atom is surrounded by Bonds represented by solid line are normal covalent bonds while those represented by four H-atoms. Two Hwater molecule dotted lines are hydrogen bonds. H atoms are linked to OH H atom by covalent bonds H as shown (by normal covalent bond) and the reH H maining two H-atoms H are linked to O-atom by two H-bonds shown by dotted lines. Thus in ice every water molecule is associated with four other water molecules by H-bonding in a tetrahedral fashion. Ice has an open cage like structure with a large empty space due to the existence of H-bonds. As ice melts at 0°C, a number of H-bonds are broken down and the space between water molecules decreases so that water molecules move closer together. The density of water increases, from 0° to 4°C, and at 4°C it is maximum. Above 4°C the increase in kinetic energy of the molecules is sufficient to cause the molecules to begin to disperse and the result is that the density decrease with increasing temperature. Illustration : 12 Both o-nitrophenol and p-nitrophenol has hydrogen bonding in their molecules? Explain which of the two has higher boiling point? Solution: Both have hydrogen bonding. o-Nitrophenol has intramolecular hydrogen bonds. But due to larger distance between —NO2 and —OH group in p-nitrophenol, there is no such bonding. O

Paragraph - I

Linked Comprehension Type

The shape of a molecule is determined by electron-pair repulsions in the valence shell. A lone pair occupies larger space than a bond pair because it is not shared by two nuclei. Thus the lone pair-lone pair repulsion is greater than the lone pair-bond pair repulsion, which in trun is greater than the bond pair-bond pair repulsion. The presence of lone pairs causes distortion of bond angles and hence a deviation from an ideal shape. The extent of distortion depends upon the orientation of the lone pairs around the central atom. In a trigonal bipyramid, the lone pairs occupy equatorial positions than the apical ones. In ABn type molecules, as the electronegative of A increases, the bond pairs come closer and the repulsion between them increases. On the other hand, as electro negativity of B increases, the bond pairs get farther and repulsion decreases. 80.

Paragraph-2 The molecular orbital energy diagrams for homonuclear diatomic molecules are given below. For systems containing up to 14 electrons: For systems containing more than 14 electrons: Electrons taken from both the atoms are filled from lower to higher energy molecular orbitals (MO’s) following Hund’s rules. The energy diagram of a heteronuculear diatomic molecule is similar. However, the energies of the atomic orbitals (AO’s) of the atom having higher atomic number being lower, the diagram will be unsymmetrical, but that will not make a difference in the electron count. Bond order is given by half the difference in the number of electrons of the bonding (s and p) and anti-bonding (s* and p*) molecular orbitals. For a bond to have been formed, the bond order should be greater than zero. The greater the bond order, the shorter is the bond distance and the greater is the bond dissociation energy. But if the bond order is the same in two cases, the bond distance will be greater and the bond dissociation energy smaller in the case which has more populated anti-bonding orbitals. The presence of unpaired electron(s) in a molecular orbital will make the system paramagnetic. 123. Which of the following species is not expected to exist? (A) He+2 (B) H +2 (C) Be2 (D) Be+2 124.

This causes development of covalent character in ionic bond because the electron density gets localized in between the nuclei. The tendency of cation to bring about the polarization of anion is expressed as its polarizing power. The ability of ion to undergo polarization is called its polarisability. The polarizing power of cation and polarisibality of anion are decided on the basis of Fajan rules as given below: i) The smaller the cation, the higher is its polarizing power. ii) Cations with pseudo noble gas configuration (ns2np6nd10) having relatively high polarizing power than those with noble gas configuration (ns2np6). iii) The larger the size of the anion, the higher is its polarisability.

(Question based on Comprehension) Passage – IV According to molecular orbital theory all atomic orbitals combine to form molecular orbital by LCAO (Linear combination of atomic orbitals) method. When two atomic orbitals have additive (constructive) overlapping, they form bonding molecular orbitals (BMO) which have lower energy than atomic orbitals whereas when atomic orbitals overlap subtractive, higher energy antibonding molecular orbitals (AMO) are formed. Each M.O. occupies two electrons with opposite spin. Distribution of electrons in M.O. follows Aufbau principle as well as Hund’s rule. M.O. theory can successfully explain magnetic behaviour of molecules. 130. Which of the following is/ are not paramagnetic? (a) NO (b) B2 (c) CO (d) O2 131. Bond strength increases when (a) bond order increases (b) bond length increases (c) antibonding electrons increases (d) bond angle increases 132. O2– will have 2 (a) bond order equal to H2 and diamagnetic (c) bond order equal to N2 and diamagnetic

(b) bond order equal to H2 but paramagnetic (d) bond order higher than O2

Passage – V Most of the polyatomic molecules except a few such as CO2 and CS2 which are linear or angular with a bond angle generally somewhat greater than 90°. A bond angle is defined as the angle between the direction of two cavalent bonds. Since the atoms in molecules are in constant motion with respect to each other, they are not expected to have a fixed value of bond angle. Repulsion between non-bonded atoms alone does not provide an adequate explanation. Hybridization of bonding orbitals also plays a very important role in determining the value of bond angles. It has been observed that in hybridization as the s-character of hybrid orbital increases bond angle increases. 133. Which of the following having highest bond angle? (a) H2S (b) HSD (c) H2Se (d) All have same bond angle 134. In P4 molecule phosphorus atoms are tetrahedrally arranged. The bond angle P–P–P in the molecule is (a) 108° (b) 120° (c) 60° (d) 180° 135. Which of the following hybridation may have more than one type of bond angle? (a) sp2

(b) sp3

(c) sp3 d

(d) sp3 d 2

Dipole moment is vector quantity, due to 180° bond angle the net dipole moment becomes zero. Due to decrease in electronegativity from F to I, the magnitude of fractional charge decreases. O2 has two unpaired electrons. NaCl bond is polar so Cl– releases in solution and gives precipitate of AgCl where as CCl4 is non-polar and it does not ionizes. Bond order is zero. CO2 is linear (zero lp) SO2 is bent (one lp). Due to H-bonding in H2O.

Cl a) BF3 is a symmetrical molecule. It has zero dipole moment. Oxygen being more electrone gative than S, bond moment of O – H is more than S – H. So, the dipole moments are in

the order of BF3 < H 2 S < H 2 O b) The anion size in increasing order is

Cl - < Br - < I Hence, LiCl is least covalent and LiI most. The order is LiCl < LiBr < LiI

c) Cation charge increases in the order Na+ < Mg2+ < Al3+ Thus, Al 3+ ion has maximum polarization effect and Na + ion has least. Thus, the decreasing order of melting point is [34 of 35]

During the combination of NH3 and BF3. N atom is donor and B atom of BF3 is acceptor. The hybrid state of N in NH3 is sp3 whereas that of B in BF3 is sp2. In the compound H3N+ – B–F3, both B and N atoms is surrounded by 4 bond pairs. The hybrid state of N remains as sp3 but that of B atom changes from sp2 to sp3. There are no d-orbitals in oxygen hence it cannot extend its covalency. Vacant d-orbitals are present in sulphur and paired orbitals can be made unpaired by shifting electrons to d-orbitals, i.e., either making four orbitals singly occupied or six orbitals singly occupied showing valency 4 or 6 besides 2.

The bond length in H2+ is longer than in H2 because in H2+ only one electron is present to shield the two nuclei from mutual repulsion. In H2 there are two electrons to hold the two nuclei thus nuclear repulsion is less than that inH2+. Hence, nuclear separation in H2+ is more than in H2. 18.

In case of F2O, because of more electronegative atom F, bond pair of electrons in O – F bon are shifted towards F, thereby decreasing bp – bp repulsion. Now lp – lp repulsion ‘closes’ the angle. That is why in H2o bond angle is higher (104.5°) than F2O (103.2°). In case of Cl2O, delocalization of the lone pair of electrons of oxygen to the vacant d-orbital of chlorine decreases the repulsion by lone pair and increases the repulsion between bond pairs. The bond angle thus becomes very large (110.8°).

19.

In NH4+ there are four bond pairs and lone pair like CH4. However, NH3 has only three bond pairs and one lone pair, hence, its bond angle is less due t lone pair bond pair repulsion.

The nature of force exists between the covalent molecules is Vander Waal’s force of attraction. The strength of the Vander Waal’s forces increases as the size of the units linked increases. As a consequence boiling point also increases. So, SiH4 has a higher boiling point than CH4. But in NH3 intermolecular H bonding makes molecules associated as a result boiling point of NH3 is more than PH3 (where such effect is absent).
