Point 1: Stability constant with CO is greater than with 02.Point 2: Bond with CO is stronger than with 02.Explanation: In haemoglobin a central Fe2+ ion in an octahedral complex compromising four dative ...

"Electronegativity is the power of an atom to attract the electron density in a covalent bond to itself"
In order to understand electronegativity we mu...

Remember that ionisation energy is an endothermic process, in which energy from the chemical system is used to remove electrons from atoms in the GASEOUS STATE.

A coordinate bond is a bond formed through the donation of a lone pair of electrons from an atom bonding to another atom which has an empty orbital.The lone pair from one atom is donated to the empty orbi...

Step 1: Using the periodic table, find how many electrons are in the outer shell of the central atom. Step 2: Add one electron for every other atom that the central atom is bound to. Step 3: Look at the n...
