Which of the following statements is correct regarding the structure of $$PC{l_5}?$$
A
Three $$P - Cl$$ bonds lie in one plane and two $$P - Cl$$ bonds lie above and below the equatorial plane.
B
Five $$P - Cl$$ bonds lie in the same plane.
C
The bond angle in all $$P - Cl$$ bonds is $${90^ \circ }.$$
D
The bond length of all $$P - Cl$$ bonds is same.
Answer :
Three $$P - Cl$$ bonds lie in one plane and two $$P - Cl$$ bonds lie above and below the equatorial plane.
In $$PC{l_5},$$ two axial and three equatorial bonds are present.
The bond length of all $$P - Cl$$ bonds are not same.

Which of the following does not apply to metallic bond ?
A
Overlapping valence orbitals
B
Mobile valency electrons
C
Delocalized electrons
D
Highly directed bonds.
Answer :
Highly directed bonds.
In metallic bonds, each ion is surrounded by equal number of oppositely charged electrons, hence have equal electrostatic attraction from all sides and hence do not have directional characteristics.

Which of the following statements is true about hydrogen bonding?
A
$$Cl$$ and $$N$$ have comparable electronegativities yet there is no $$H$$ - bonding in $$HCl$$ because size of $$Cl$$ is large.
B
Intermolecular $$H$$ - bonding results in decrease in $$m.pt.$$ and $$b.pt.$$
C
Ice has maximum density at $${0^ \circ }C$$ due to $$H$$ - bonding.
D
$$KHC{l_2}\left( {HCl_2^ - } \right)$$ exists but $$KH{F_2}\left( {HF_2^ - } \right)$$ does not exist due to lack of $$H$$ - bonding in $$HCl.$$
Answer :
$$Cl$$ and $$N$$ have comparable electronegativities yet there is no $$H$$ - bonding in $$HCl$$ because size of $$Cl$$ is large.
For hydrogen bonding, the size of the atom should be small.

The number and type of bonds between two carbon atoms in $$Ca{C_2}$$ are:
A
one sigma $$\left( \sigma \right)$$ and one pi $$\left( \pi \right)$$ bonds
B
one sigma $$\left( \sigma \right)$$ and two pi $$\left( \pi \right)$$ bonds
C
one sigma $$\left( \sigma \right)$$ and one and a half pi $$\left( \pi \right)$$ bonds
D
one sigma $$\left( \sigma \right)$$ bond.
Answer :
one sigma $$\left( \sigma \right)$$ and two pi $$\left( \pi \right)$$ bonds
Calcium carbide is an ionic compound $$\left( {C{a^{2 + }}{C^{2 - }}} \right)$$ which produces acetylene on reacting with water. Thus the structure of $${C^{2 - }}$$ is $${\left[ {C \equiv C} \right]^{2 - }}.$$ It has one $$\sigma $$ and two $$\pi $$ bonds. [ $$\because $$ A triple bond consists of one $$\sigma $$ and two $$\pi $$-bonds]
