    CLASS TEST 2 (GREEN)

    1. Phosphorous trifluoride and phosphorous pentafluoride are both known


    compounds. However nitrogen, which is in the same family as phosphorous, can
    only form nitrogen trifluoride.
    a. Why? (4 MARKS)

    b. Draw all three compounds in three dimensions. Indicate the electronic and
    molecular structure for each one. Indicate the hybridization of the central
    atom. (6 MARKS)

    c. Draw a partial orbital-box diagram for the nitrogen atom in nitrogen


    trifluoride, before and after hybridization. (3 MARKS)
    2. a. Place the following ionic compounds in order of increasing lattice
    energy(2MARKS):
    i. MgO(s)
    ii. K2O(s)
    iii. SrO(s)

    b. Explain your choice. (3 MARKS)

    3. In three dimensions, draw two isomers of the compound C2H4O. Indicate the
    hybridization of the oxygen atom in each case. (6 MARKS)
    4. Draw reasonable resonance structures for the thiocyanate ion NCS- . Which one is
    favoured? (4 MARKS)

    5. In the lab, you are asked to determine the enthalpy of formation of strontium
    oxide. The following data table is provided.

    Heat of formation of liquid water -286 kJ/mol


    Sublimation of strontium 164 kJ/mol
    st
    1 ionization energy of strontium 594 kJ/mol
    2nd ionization energy of strontium 1045 kJ/mol
    1st electron affinity of oxygen -141 kJ/mol
    Crystal lattice energy of SrO -3320 kJ/mol
    Bond energy of oxygen 498 kJ/mol

    Using calorimetry, the following data are obtained:

    SrO(aq) + 2HCl(aq) → SrCl2(aq) + H2O(l) ΔHf = 94 kJ/mol

    Sr(s) + 2HCl(aq) → SrCl2(aq) + H2(g) ΔHf = -400 kJ/mol


    a. Use Hess’s Law to determine ΔHf for strontium oxide from its elements.
    (4 MARKS)

    b. Construct a Born-Haber Cycle for the formation of strontium oxide and


    determine the second electron affinity for oxygen.(10 MARKS)
    c. Is the second electron affinity for oxygen endothermic or exothermic?
    Explain. (3 MARKS)

    6. Consider the following compounds: H2(g), HF(g) and F2(g). Which of these
    compounds is polar? Draw Lewis structure for the polar compounds and indicate
    the direction of the dipole moment. (5 MARKS)
