-Ions are mobile when molten

Name the shape of, and state the bond angles in, a BF3 molecules.




Explain why BF3 has this shape.

Shape: trigonal planar


Bond angle: 120°


Explanation:Pairs of electrons repel (one another equally)


Boron has 3 bonded pairs (and 0 lone pairs)

Nitrogen can also form a fluoride, NF3, which has a permanent dipole.


Explain why NF3 has a permanent dipole.

-F is more electronegative than N


-Dipoles do not cancelORNF3 is pyramidal (in words) / asymmetrical

What is meant by the term ionic bonding?

-(Electrostatic) attraction between oppositely chargedions

Explain why a solution of copper(II) nitrate conducts electricty

What is meant by the term electronegativity

The ability of an atom to attract electrons

State the shape of a molecule of SF6

Octahedral

Explain, in terms of inter-molecular forces present, why IcL has a higher boiling point than Cl2

Exp1:ICl has permanent dipole (–dipole) (interactions)
-Cl2 has (only) London dispersion
-Forces are stronger in ICl and more energy is needed to overcome forces in icL
Exp2:-ICl has more electrons
-Stronger london dispersion forces in ICl(than in Cl2) and therefore More energy is needed to overcome london dispersion forces in ICl
