Chapter 7, Problem 7.104PAE

7.104 Hydrogen azide, HN 3 , is a liquid that explodes violently when subjected to shock. In the HN 3 molecule, one nitrogen—nitrogen bond length has been measured at 112 pm and the other at 124 pm. Draw a Lewis structure that accounts for these observations. Explain how your structure reflects these experimental facts.

10.) The structural formula of a certain aldehyde (related to formaldehyde) is H3C-CH2-CHO.  Draw a Lewis structure for this aldehyde and determine the number of bonds present.  Note that a single or a double or a triple bond counts as one bond. Write the number, not the word.
Which of the following bonds are polar: (a) P—O; (b) S—F; (c) Br—Br; (d) O—Cl? Which is the more electronegative atom in each polar bond?
Sulfuric acid is the industrial chemical produced in greatest quantity worldwide. About 90 billion pounds are produced each year in the United States alone. Write the Lewis structure for sulfuric acid, H2SO4, which has twooxygen atoms and two OH groups bonded to the sulfur.
