01. How many oxygen atoms are in an Al2(CO3)3 molecule?

02. Polyatomic ions are often said to be a cross between covalent molecules and ionic molecules. Why can they be characterized in such a way?

03a. Give the chemical formula for calcium acetate

03b. Give the chemical formula for barium chromate

03c. Give the chemical formula for ammonium carbonate

04. Give the balanced chemical equation for the reaction that occurs when aqueous ammonium chloride reacts with aqueous barium nitrate to produce solid barium chloride and aqueous ammonium nitrate.

05. In VSEPR theory, which repels other electron groups more bly, a bond or a non-bonding electron pair?

06. Explain, in your own words, why molecules sometimes attain three-dimensional shapes rather than just being flat.

07. Determine the shape of an I2 molecule. Give its bond angles and draw a picture of it.

08. Determine the shape of a NHF2 molecule. Give its bond angles and draw a picture of it.

13a. If you have ever poured gasoline on your hands, you know that washing with soap and water doesn't get the gasoline smell off of your hands very well. Why?


14a. What common household product might you wash your hands with to better remove the gasoline smell from your hands?
