Covalent And Dative Bonding Question Pack 1

Q13.

(a)     (i)      Hydrogen bonds / H bonds

Not just hydrogen.

(ii)     

M1 – lone pair on each N.

M2 – correct partial charges must be shown on the N and H of a bond in each molecule.

M3 – for the H bond from lone pair on N to the Hδ+ on the other NH3 molecule.

If not ammonia molecules, CE = 0 / 3.

(b)     Lone pair / both electrons / 2 electrons / electron pair on N(H3) is donated to B(Cl3)

Allow both electrons in the bond come from N(H3).
