The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem regarding the compound \( Al_2Me_6 \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine the maximum number of atoms that can lie in a place having terminal \( Al-Me \) bonds (x). In the structure of \( Al_2Me_6 \), we can visualize it as follows: - There are two aluminum (Al) atoms. - Each aluminum atom is bonded to multiple methyl (Me) groups. Counting the terminal \( Al-Me \) bonds: - Each aluminum atom can form bonds with the methyl groups. - In total, there are 10 terminal \( Al-Me \) bonds. Thus, the maximum number of atoms that can lie in a place having terminal \( Al-Me \) bonds is: \[ x = 10 \] ### Step 2: Count the total number of 3-center 2-electron bonds (y). In the structure of \( Al_2Me_6 \): - A 3-center 2-electron bond involves three atoms sharing two electrons. - In this compound, there are 2 such bonds formed between the two aluminum atoms and the bridging carbon atoms. Thus, the total number of 3-center 2-electron bonds is: \[ y = 2 \] ### Step 3: Calculate the total number of atoms that are \( sp^3 \) hybridized (z). In the structure of \( Al_2Me_6 \): - Each methyl group (Me) contributes to the \( sp^3 \) hybridization of the carbon atom. - The two aluminum atoms are also involved in hybridization. Counting the \( sp^3 \) hybridized atoms: - There are 8 atoms in total that are \( sp^3 \) hybridized (including the two aluminum and six carbon atoms from the methyl groups). Thus, the total number of atoms that are \( sp^3 \) hybridized is: \[ z = 8 \] ### Step 4: Calculate the value of \( \frac{x - y}{z} \). Now we can substitute the values of \( x \), \( y \), and \( z \) into the expression: \[ \frac{x - y}{z} = \frac{10 - 2}{8} = \frac{8}{8} = 1 \] ### Final Answer: The value of \( \frac{x - y}{z} \) is \( 1 \). ---
