A resident expert on electronegativity comes up to visit with you. He makes two claims (seen below) about electronegativity with relation to covalent bonding. Is the expert correct or can you refute him with your knowledge of electronegativity?
(a) If a diatomic molecule is made up of atoms X and Y, which have different electronegativities, the molecule must be polar.
(b) The farther two atoms are apart in a bond, the larger the dipole moment will be.
Na+ forms an “ionic bond” (i.e. an electrostatic attraction) with the OCN− ion.
(a) Draw the full Lewis structure of the ionic compound. Be sure to show how you have derived this. (The ionic compound as a whole, not just OCN-)
(b) Which atom in the OCN− anion is the sodium cation most likely to attract? Explain.
(a) Describe the molecule xenon trioxide, XeO3, using four possible Lewis structures, one each with zero, one, two, or three Xe—O double bonds.
