b) Atoms of element B form hep lattice and those of element A occupies 2//3^(rd) of tetrahedral voids. Calculate the formula of the compound formed by A and B. |
|
Answer» SOLUTION :The hcp lattice is formed by the atoms of the element B. Here, the number of TETRAHEDRAL voids generated is equal to TWICE the number of atoms of the element B. The atoms of element A occupy `(2)/(3)` rd of the tetrahedral voids. Therefore, the number of atoms of A is equal to `2 xx (2)/(3) = (4)/(3)` rd of the number of atoms of B. Therefore, ratio of the number of atoms of A to that of B is `A : B = (4)/(3) : 1` = 4 : 3 Thus the formula of the compound ia `A_(4) B_(3)`. |

| 2. |
Atoms of element B form hcp lattice and those of the element A occupy 2//3^(rd) of tetrahedral voids. What is the formula of the compound formed by the elements A and B ? |
|
Answer» Solution :The ATOMS of element B is forming close packed STRUCTURE. Let number of B atoms = n The total number of tetrahedral voids = 2n Atoms A OCCUPY `(2//3)^(rd)` of tetrahedral voids. Hence, the total number of Atoms = `2n xx 2/3 =(4n)/3` So the formula of a compound A`((4n)/3),B_n` Taking n = 3, we GET `A_4B_3`. |

Atomic sizes generally increase as we come down a group of the periodic table. But in the 4th group of the periodic table, Zr and Hf have almost the same atomic sizes. Why? |
| Answer» Solution :This is a CONSEQUENCE of LANTHANOID contraction. Along the lanthanoids there is progressive decrease in size with INCREASE in atomic number which is known as lanthanoid contraction.Since comes IMMEDIATELY after the lanthanoids, its size, is smaller than expected"and it is almost the same as that of Zr. | |

Atomic radius of Cu is greater than that of Cr but ionic ofCr^(2+)is greater than that of Cu^(2+). Give suitable explanation. |
| Answer» Solution :In Cu, all the d-electronsarepaired `(3d^(10)4s^(1))`. In CR , all the d-ELECTRONS are unpaired`( 3d^(5) 4s^(1))`. Hence, d-delectron repulsion in Cu are much greater than those in Cr. Therefore ,Cu atomis larger size than Cr. In `Cu^(2+) (3d^(9))`, d-d electron repulsions decrease due to presenceofone unpaired d-electron. MOREOVER, the electrons are attracted by 29 PROTONS of the nucleus whereas in `Cr^(2+)`, three unpaired electrons are still presenct but they are attractedby only 24 protons of the nucleus. Thus , `Cu^(2+)`issmaller in size than`Cr^(2+)`. | |

Atomic orbitals of bonded atoms combine to form molecular orbitals. The number of molecular orbitals formed is equal to the number of atomic orbitals taking part in the bond formation. When two atomic orbitals combine, two molecular orbitals are formed one of which has lower energy than the combining orbitals and is called bonding Molecular Orbital (MO). Whereas the other having higher energy than the two combining atomic orbitals is called Anti Bonding Molecular orbitals (ABMO) The two combining atomic orbitals must have comparable energies and should be properly oriented to allow considerable overlapping. If the overlapping is end to end along internuclear axis, the molecular orbital is called sigma and if the overlapping is lateral 1.e., sidewise the molecular orbital is called pie. Just like atomic orbitals, the molecular orbitals also have varying energy levels. Filling of electrons in molecular orbitals takes place following the same rules as followed for filing of atomic orbitals. The order of filling may not be same for all the molecules or their ions. Bond order is a useful parameter for comparing the various characteristics of molecules. In the homonuclear diatomic molecule which of the following sets of M.O. orbitals are grade or un-grade |
