Draw the structure of chlorine pentafluoride (ClF5) according to the VSEPR theory

The molecule is uncharged, so we can find that chlorine is in its +5 oxidation state. Since there are 5 Cl-F bonds, there are 5 bonding electron pairs around the central Cl atom. We also know that chlorin...

Explain trend in why the ionisation energies increase across the period

As we travel along the period the nuclear charge increases, this increases the grip the nuclei of the atom has on the electrons. As they are on the same period they experience almost the exactly the same ...

Why does iodine have a higher boiling point than chlorine?

Neither iodine or chlorine have permanent dipoles because there is no difference in electronegativity between the atoms, so there are no permanent dipole : permanent dipole interactions. There are also no...

Which are the strongest interactions between molecules

Hydrogen bonds are the strongest, which are possible only between H and F, O or N because of the difference in electronegativity; then, permanent dipole-permanent dipole interactions come second as they f...
