46. Read the text carefully and answer the questions: [5]
The Lewis dot structures provide a picture of bonding in molecules and ions in terms of the shared pairs of
electrons and the octet rule. While such a picture may not explain the bonding and behaviour of a molecule
completely, it does help in understanding the formation and properties of a molecule to a large extent. The total

6 / 11
CSD Chemistry Series
 number of electrons required for writing the structures is obtained by adding the valence electrons of the
combining atoms. In general, the least electronegative atom occupies the central position in the molecule/ion.
After accounting for the shared pairs of electrons for single bonds, the remaining electron pairs are either utilized
for multiple bonding or remain as the lone pairs. The basic requirement being that each bonded atom gets an
octet of electrons. Lewis dot structures, in general, do not represent the actual shapes of the molecules. In the
case of polyatomic ions, the net charge is possessed by the ion as a whole and not by a particular atom. It is,
however, feasible to Knowing the chemical symbols of the combining atoms and having knowledge of the
skeletal structure of the compound (known or guessed intelligently).

47. Read the text carefully and answer the questions: [5]
Lewis's concept is unable to explain the shapes of molecules. This theory provides a simple procedure to predict
the shapes of covalent molecules. Sidgwick and Powell in 1940, proposed a simple theory based on the repulsive
interactions of the electron pairs in the valence shell of the atoms. The shape of a molecule depends upon the
number of valence shell electron pairs around the central atom. Pairs of electrons in the valence shell repel one
another since their electron clouds are negatively charged. The valence shell is taken as a sphere with the
electron pairs localizing on the spherical surface at a maximum distance from one another. The VSEPR theory is
able to predict the geometry of a large number of molecules, especially the compounds of p-block elements

48. Read the text carefully and answer the questions: [5]
Molecular orbitals are formed by the overlap of atomic orbitals. Two atomic orbitals combine to form two
molecular orbitals called bonding molecular orbital (BMO) and antibonding molecular orbital (ABMO). The
energy of the antibonding orbital is raised above the parent atomic orbitals that have combined and the energy of
the bonding orbital is lowered than the parent atomic orbitals. Different atomic orbitals of one atom combine
with those atomic orbitals of the second atom which have comparable energies and proper orientation. Further, if
the overlapping is head-on, the molecular orbital is called ‘Sigma’, (σ) and if the overlap is lateral, the molecular
orbital is called ‘pi’, (π). The molecular orbitals are filled with electrons according to the same rules as followed
for the filling of atomic orbitals. However, the order for filling is not the same for all molecules or their ions.
Bond order is one of the most important parameters to compare the strength of bonds.

49. Read the text carefully and answer the questions: [5]
The existence of a hundred percent ionic or covalent bond represents an ideal situation. In reality, no bond or a
compound is either completely covalent or ionic. Even in the case of a covalent bond between two hydrogen
atoms, there is some ionic character. As a result of polarization, the molecule possesses the dipole moment
which is the product of the magnitude of the charge and the distance between the centers of positive and
negative charge. In the case of polyatomic molecules, the dipole moment not only depends upon the individual
dipole moments of bonds known as bond dipoles but also on the spatial arrangement of various bonds in the
molecule. This arrow symbolizes the direction of the shift of electron density in the molecule. The direction of
the crossed arrow is opposite to the conventional direction of the dipole moment vector. The covalent bonds
have some partial ionic character, the ionic bonds also have partial covalent character.

The distribution of electrons among various molecular orbitals is called the electronic configuration of the
molecule. If Nb is the number of electrons occupying bonding orbitals and Na is the number occupying the
antibonding orbital. Bond order (b.o.) is defined as one-half the difference between the number of electrons
present in the bonding and the antibonding orbitals. Integral bond order values of 1, 2 or 3 correspond to single,
double, or triple bonds respectively as studied in the classical concept. Bonding in some Homonuclae molecule.
The hydrogen molecule is formed by the combination of two hydrogen atoms. Each hydrogen atom has one
electron in 1s orbital. Therefore, in all, there are two electrons in hydrogen molecule which are present in σ1s
molecular orbital. Isoelectronic molecules and ions have identical bond orders. A general correlation useful for
