Suggestions on preparing for a chemistry exam:

1. Organize your materials (quizzes, notes, etc.). 2. Usually, a good method to prepare for a chem exam is by doing lots of problems. Re-reading a section of a chapter is fine, but

re-reading entire chapters takes up large amounts of time that generally is better spent doing problems. 3. Old exams posted by your instructor should be completely worked though. Old exams give you a sense of how long the exam

will be, the difficulty of the problems, the variability of the problems, and the style of your instructor! Quizzes written by your instructor are also a good source of problems to work through.

anion it will definitely be larger than a -1 anion so this yields: Ne < F- < O-2; between O-2, S-2 and Se-2 since O < S < Se when neutral, the same holds for anions with the same charge so this yields: O-2 < S-2 < Se-2; combining these trends yields: Ne < F- < O-2 < S-2 < Se-2}

34. e {“a” is IE1 and “b” is IE3 – ionization energies are endothermic; “c” is endothermic; “d” is EA2 and EA2 are always endothermic; “e” is EA1 and EA1 is either 0 (zero) or negative (exothermic)}

35. d {IE increase as you go to the right and up on the Periodic Table; also, since we are considering the 3rd IE, think of the atoms as +2 ions: O+2, F+2, Mg+2, and P+2; assign these locations on the PT, i.e., O+2 has 6 electrons so it is in the C position and so on; P+2 is the only atom on the 3rd row and therefore has a lower IE3}

- has N-O

with BO = 1.5 and NO3- has a N-O BO = 1.33; NO3

- has smallest bond order → longest bond length}

II. NO+ {Greater BO → greater bond dissociation energy; NO+ has N-O triple bond/greatest bond order → greatest bond dissociation energy}

42. b {From Lewis dot structures, including the resonance structures, the C—O bond is between a single and double bond (it's 11/3 bonds). Therefore, the bond length should be between 1.43 (single bond) and 1.23 Å (double bond).}

43. d {Most ionic means greatest ΔEN which means further apart from one another on the PT.} 44. Structure IV can be dropped because of the high FC. Structure I can be dropped because it has fewer zeros

than Structures II or III. The difference between Structures II and III is a -1 FC on the O atom and a FC of 0 on the S (Structure II) and the reverse of that for Structure III. Since O is more electronegative than S the O atom should have the more negative FC. Therefore Structure II is the best structure.

45. Lower formal charges (closer to zero) are better. Two resonance structures have two 0’s and one –1 for formal charges. These are

better structures than the structure with a –2 formal charge. To determine between these 2 resonance structures which is better, consider the electronegativity of S and N. Since N has a greater EN, it should have the more negative formal charge. Hence, the resonance structure with 2 double bonds is the best structure in which the –1 formal charge is on the N and not the S.
