5. Which dihalogens are thermodynamically capable of oxidizing H2O to O2? 6.

Nitrogen trifluoride, NF3bois at -129o C and is z very weak Lewis base. By contrast, the lower molar mass compound NH3 boils at -33o C and is well known as a Lewis base. a. Describe the origins of this very large difference in volatility b. Describe the probable origins of differences in basicity 8. Given that 1.84 gram of IF3 reacts with 0.93 gram of [(CH3)4N]F to form a product X a. Identify X b. Use the VSEPR model to product the shapes of IF3 and cation and anion 19. Explain why CrI3 (s) stale with respect to decomposition but NaI3 (s) is not! 20. Write plausible Lewis structures for (a) ClO2 (b) I2O6 and predict their shapes and the associated point group
