draw-a-lewis-structure-for-xefs-and-use-vsepr-to-rationalize-its-observed-structure-ie-why-does-it-have-dah-symmetry-b-a-molecular-orbital-diagram-for-xef4-is-shown-the-diagram-includes-four-67136

a) Draw a Lewis structure for XeF4, and use VSEPR to rationalize its observed structure (i.e. why does it have D4h symmetry?) b) A molecular orbital diagram for XeF4 is shown. The diagram includes four valence atomic orbitals for all five atoms, but assumes that the F 2s orbitals do not effectively take part in bonding. i) Explain why there are a total of 20 molecular orbitals. ii) How many bonding MOs does this diagram depict? How many antibonding? How many non-bonding? iii) Which molecular orbital is the HOMO, and what is its bonding nature and character? (e.g. σ-bonding, π-antibonding, non-bonding, mostly Xe, exclusively O, etc, etc)? iv) Which molecular orbital is the LUMO, and what is its bonding nature and character? v) According to this diagram, how many non-bonding electron pairs are found in XeF4, and on which atoms are they located? How does this compare to the Lewis structure? vi) Draw a qualitative sketch of one of the 2eu molecular orbitals, and the 2a2u orbital.

Consider the $\mathrm{H}_{2}^{+}$ ion. (a) Sketch the molecular orbitals of the ion and draw its energy-level diagram. (b) How many electrons are there in the $\mathrm{H}_{2}+$ ion? (c) Write the electron configuration of the ion in terms of its MOs. (d) What is the bond order in $\mathrm{H}_{2}^{+} ?$ (e) Suppose that the ion is excited by light so that an electron moves from a lower-energy to a higher-energy MO. Would you expect the excited-state $\mathrm{H}_{2}^{+}$ ion to be stable or to fall apart? (f) Which of the following statements about part (e) is correct: (i) The light excites an electron from a bonding orbital to an antibonding orbital, (ii) The light excites an electron from an antibonding orbital to a bonding orbital, or (iii) In the excited state there are more bonding electrons than antibonding electrons?

00:01 For this part, we were going to have the lewis structure for part a, so which is we need to have the structure of your xef4.
00:12 So therefore, your senan has balanced electron, which is eight electrons, and your fluorine has balanced electrons, which is seven electrons.
00:23 So we have xe so we will have their electrons we have f one two three and four and we have one two three four five six seven also here so we will have seven and it will be connected from the electrons of senon also here the other one and also the other one.
01:08 So this would be the lewis structure of your senon fluoride or sanon 4 fluoride by the vsepr theory structure of your xef4.
01:22 So we have xe so we have up and basically your four atoms of fluorine so we have down down down and also down.
01:43 So this would be four atoms of your fluorine.
01:46 So four bond pair plus two long pairs is equal to sp3d2 hybridization.
01:55 Now for the geometry for this one, so the geometry is equal to the octahedral.
02:06 And the shape for this one is square planar.
02:12 So this is what it will look like.
02:14 We have xe, we have fluorine, fluorine, fluorine, and fluorine.
02:20 We have two long pairs, one and two...
