Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Tellurium has higher atomic weight than Iodine; the reason has to be found and any two adjacent elements that has the similar behaviour has to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

Atom: The smallest and simplest particle of an element and said to be indivisible.

Isotope: The elements that possess same atomic number but different mass number.

Compound A has molecular formula C7H7X. Its 1H-NMR spectrum shows a singlet at 2.25 ppm and two doublets, one at 7.28 ppm and one at 7.39 ppm. The singlet has an integral of three and the doublets each have an integral of two. The mass spectrum of A shows a peak at m/z = 126 and another peak at m/z = 128; the relative height of the two peaks is 3:1 respectively. Identify what atom X is, explaining your reasoning and identify Compound A, explaining your reasoning.
Another major use of bismuth has been as an ingredient in low-melting metal alloys, such as those used in firesprinkler systems and in typesetting. The element itself is a brittle white crystalline solid. How do these characteristicsfit with the fact that bismuth is in the same periodic group with such nonmetallic elements as nitrogenand phosphorus?
Look up antimony in the periodic table 1Z = 512. How many covalent bonds would you expect it to form? Based on this information, which of the following antimony compounds is covalent and which is ionic: SbCl3 or SbCl5?
