Answer to Question #23938 in Inorganic Chemistry for Karan




 what is a 'dangling bond'?
In chemistry, a dangling bond is an unsatisfied valence on an immobilized atom.  
  
In order to gain enough electrons to fill their valence shells many atoms will form covalent bonds with other atoms. In the simplest case, that of a single bond, two atoms each contribute one unpaired electron, and the resulting pair of electrons is shared between both atoms. Atoms which possess too few bonding partners to satisfy their valences and which possess unpaired electrons are termed free radicals; so, often, are molecules containing such atoms. When a free radical exists in an immobilized environment, for example, a solid, it is referred to as an &quot;immobilized free radical&quot; or a &quot;dangling bond&quot;.
a) van der waals (present, all molecule/atoms contain it)[readmore](b) dipole-dipole (present, c=o creates a partial charge on c and o)(c) hydrogen bonding (not present, h-bonds are only present in compounds with h attached on o, n or f)(d) ion-ion (not present, only appears on compound with full charges) c5h10 can have a double bond because it satisfies the general formula for alkenes i.e., cnh2n. here, there are 5 carbon atoms; hence, n is 5. substituting n in the formula cnh2n, we get, `c\_5h\_(2xx5)=c\_5h\_10` <p>concepts and reason</p>
<p>the concept used to solve this problem is the formal charge calculation of the oxygen atoms present in the ozone molecule.</p>
<p>fundamentals</p>
<p>a charge that is assigned to an atom, which is present in the molecule, is represented as a formal charge. in two bonded atoms, a formal charge assumes that the electrons are equally shared between them. the formal charge is calculated using the following formula:</p>
<p>formal charge \(=\mathrm{v}-\mathrm{n}-\frac{\mathrm{b}}{2}\)</p>
<p>here, \(\mathrm{v}\) is the number of valence electrons, \(\mathrm{n}\) is the number of non-bonding electrons and \(\mathrm{b}\) is the number of bonding electrons.</p>

<p>the structure is as follows:</p>

<p>the marked oxygen atom has 6 valence electrons. it contains 6 non-bonding electrons. the marked oxygen atom is bonded with one oxygen atom. therefore, the bonding electron of oxygen is \(2 .\) substitute the values in a formal charge formula to determine the formal charge of oxygen (marked).</p>

<p>the oxygen atom in the middle has 6 valence electrons and has 2 non-bonding electrons. the central oxygen atom is bonded with 1 double bond and 1 single bond. so, there is a total of 3 bonds containing 6 electrons (bonding electrons). the formal charge of the middle oxygen atom can be determined by substituting the values in a formal charge formula.</p>

<p>the oxygen atom present on the right side contains 6 valence electrons which have 2 non-bonded electrons. the marked oxygen is bonded with 1 double bond with a central oxygen atom. so, the number of bonding electrons is \(4 .\) the formal charge of the corner oxygen atom (right corner) can be determined by substituting the values in the formal charge formula.</p>

option 2)andoption 3)andoption 4)and cao i honestly thought it was a bit drying. think it's because it's so heavily frangranted. i will stick to my biolage matrix! good luck. oxygen in
