Inorganic - Ruth stuff

?
2nd row anomalies
more element-element bond stability; greater stability of multiple bonds (pi); octet rule generally obeyed; max. CoNo.=4; lower reactivity of compounds
1 of 9
Why does the 2nd row have anomalies?
v. small; high X; no access to low lying d-orbitals (can't access higher o.s.)
2 of 9
BF3 synthesis
B2O3 + 3CaF3 + 3H2SO4 -> 2BF3 + 2CaSO4 + 3H2O
3 of 9
hydrolysis of BF3
4BF3 + 4H2O -> H3BO3 + 3HBF4 + 3H2O
4 of 9
How does BF3 react?
Forms complexes with ethers
5 of 9
Most common salt of Al?
Aluminium sulphate octadecahydrate
6 of 9
How does this salt react?
Acidic; forms strong hydration complex with H2O which then hydrolyses. Stops at Al(OH)3 (White ppt). This forms "aluminate ion" with bases.
7 of 9
Phosphonic acid and phosphoric acid?
H3PO3 and H3PO4
8 of 9
Group 15 (AX5) structures
NF5 not known. PF5 and AsF5 = gas, trigonal bipyramidal. SbF5 = liquid, cyclic tetramer. BiF5 = linear chains with trans bridges
