Oxygen differs from the other elements of the group. Compounds of oxygen with metals are more ionic in nature and hydrogen bonding is more important for oxygen compounds. Oxygen is never more than divalent beacasue when it hs formed two covalent bonds, there are no low energy orbitals which can be used for form. further bonds. However, the elements S,Se,Te and Po have empty d- orbitals which may be used for bonding, and they can form four or six bonds by unpairing electrons. The higher oxidation states become less stable on decending the group. The bond between S and O, or Se and O, are much shorter than might be expected for a single bond owing to rho pi - dpi interaction between the p- orbital of oxygen and d- orbital of S or Se. Which of the following statemet is incorrect ?

In a sample of ethyl ethanoate (CH_3COOC_2H_5) the two oxygen atoms have the same number of electrons but different number of neutrons. Which of the following is the correct reason for it ?

    Two different formulas are used in order to represent composition of any miolecule, empirical formula and molecular formula . While the fomer gives an idea of relative ratio of number of atoms, latter gives the exact number of atoms in the molecule. An organic compound contains C N and O . The number of oxygen atom is same as that of nitogen atom which is one third of number of carbon atoms and number of hydrogen atoms is approximately 2.33 times of carbon atoms. If vapour density of the compound is 73 then molecular formula of the compound will be :
