1) Answer the following questions about the element selenium, Se (atomic
number 34).
a) Write the electron configuration (e.g., 1s2 2s2... etc.) for a selenium atom
in the ground state. Indicate the number of unpaired electrons in the
ground-state atom, and explain your reasoning.
b) In terms of atomic structure, explain why the first ionization energy of
selenium is
(i) less than that of bromine (atomic number 35), and
(ii) greater than that of tellurium (atomic number 52).
c) Selenium reacts with fluorine to form SeF4. Draw the complete Lewis
electron-dot structure for SeF4 and sketch the molecular structure.
Indicate whether the molecule is polar or nonpolar, and justify your
answer.
2) Put each of the following series in order of increasing size:
a) Al3+, N3-, O2-, Ar, Li+
b) K, Na, Sr, Na+, P33) Put the following in order of increasing C-C bond length:

4) Put the following in order of increasing C-C bond strength:
C2 Cl3F3, C2HCl, C2F3Cl
5) Using principles of chemical bonding and molecular geometry explain each of
the following observations. Lewis electron-dot diagrams and sketches of
molecules may be helpful as part of your explanations. For each observation
your answer must include references to both substances.
(a) The bonds in nitrite ion, NO2-, are shorter than the bonds in nitrate
ion, NO3-.
(b) The CH2F2 molecule is polar, whereas the CF4 molecule is not.
