fluorine p-orbitals that form the sigma bonding framework in square planar
(Dan) XeF.

1) Generate the reducible representation for this basis,
2) Reduce the representation into the component irreducible representations
in the point group
3) Identify the symmetries of the valence orbitals on Xe.
4) What interactions are expected between the Xe valence orbitals and the
SALCS? Indicate clearly bonding and non-bonding interactions,

An atom of lithium (li) and an atom of chlorine (cl) engage in a chemical reaction. which correctly describes the structure of the resulting chemical compound? hint: consider the class of each element. the chemical compound will have a network structure. the chemical compound will have triple bonds. the chemical compound will have a ball-and-stick structure. the chemical compound will have double bonds.

7. using your knowledge of colligative properties explain whether sodium chloride or calcium chloride would be a more effective substance to melt the ice on a slick sidewalk. use 3 – 4 sentences in your explanation. 8. when a 2.5 mol of sugar (c12h22o11) are added to a certain amount of water the boiling point is raised by 1 celsius degree. if 2.5 mol of aluminum nitrate is added to the same amount of water, by how much will the boiling point be changed? show all calculations leading to your answer or use 3 – 4 sentences to explain your answer. 9. if 5.40 kcal of heat is added to 1.00 kg of water at 100⁰c, how much steam at 100⁰c is produced? show all calculations leading to an answer. 10. the freezing of water at 0⁰c can be represented as follows: h2o (l) ↔ h2o(s) the density of liquid water is 1.00 g/cm3. the density of ice is 0.92 g/cm3. in 3 – 4 sentences explain why applying pressure causes ice to melt.

Lab reagent, hypothesis test. a reference solution used as a lab reagent is purported to have a concentration of 5 mg/dl. six samples are taken from this solution and the following concentrations are recorded: (5.32, 4.88, 5.10, 4.73, 5.15, 4.75) mg/dl. these six measurements are assumed to be an srs of all possible measurements from solution. they are also assumed to have a standard deviation of 0.2, a normal distributin, and a mean concentration equal to the true concentration of the solution. carry out a significance test to determine whether these six measurements provide reliable evidence that the true concentration of the solution is actually not 5 mg/dl.
