Pregunta 5
Pregunta
The formation of the oxide ion, O²⁻(g), from oxygen atom requires first, and exothermic and then an endothermic reaction as shown below:
O(g) + e⁻ → O⁻(g) ; ΔfH⁻ = -141kJ mol⁻¹
O(g) + e⁻ → O²⁻(g) ; ΔfH⁻ = +780kJ mol⁻¹
Thus, process of formation of O²⁻ in gas phase is not favourable even though O²⁻ is isoelectronic with neon. It is due to the fact that:
Respuesta
-
electron repulsion outweighs the stability gained by noble gas configuration
-
oxygen is more electronegative.
-
addition of electron in oxygen results in larger size of the ion.
-
O⁻ ion has comparatively smaller size than oxygen atom.
Pregunta 6
Pregunta
ASSERTION (A): Both rhombic and monoclinic sulphur exist as S₈, but oxygen exists as O₂.
REASON (R): Oxygen forms pπ-pπ multiple bond due to small size and small bond length but pπ-pπ bonding is not possible in sulphur.
Respuesta
-
Both ASSERTION and REASON are true, and REASON is the correct explanation of ASSERTION.
-
Both ASSERTION and Reason are true, but REASON is not the correct explanation of ASSERTION.
-
ASSERTION is true, but REASON is false.
-
ASSSERTION is false, but REASON is true.
