Answer:

a) The structure of anthracene is planar with all the pi electrons delocalized in the structure to maintain aromaticity.

b) The C-C bond length in anthracene is about 140 pm with all the bond lengths being similar to each other.

The standard C-C bond length is 154 pm while standard C=C bond is about 134 pm. Therefore the bond length in anthracene is smaller than standard C-C bond length and longer than standard C=C bond length. This can be explained from the fact that the C-C bonds in anthracene has be mixed characteristics of single and double bond because of the delocalization of pi electrons over the whole structure. As a result, they are neither fully single nor fully double bond in nature. Hence the observed bond lengths.

c) This molecule is not flat. The N-atom is sp3 hybridized here and the H-atom attached to N will remain out of plane.

jekas [21]

Explanation:

A mixture is defined as the substance that contains two or more different number of substances that are physically mixed together.

For example, a mixture of air which contains oxygen, nitrogen and other gases.

A mixture in which solute particles are unevenly distributed into the solvent then it is known as a heterogeneous mixture.

For example, sand in water is a heterogeneous mixture.

A homogeneous mixture is defined as the mixture in which solute particles are evenly distributed in a solvent.

A homogeneous mixture is a clear solution.

For example, salt dissolved in water is a homogeneous mixture.

A solution is defined as the substance in which two or more substances are mixed together.

A compound is defined as the substance that contains two or more different elements that chemically combined together in a fixed ratio by mass.

A element is defined as the substance that contains only one type of atoms.

For example, a piece of sodium element will contain only atoms of sodium.

Whereas a pure substance is defined as the substance which contains only one type of molecule or one type of atom.

For example, O_{2}, N_{2} etc are pure substances.

Thus, we can conclude that the terms which could be used to describe the given sample of air is as follows.

  • pure chemical substance.
  • heterogenous mixture.
  • mixture.
