  2. Phosphorus pentafluoride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphorus_pentafluoride

    Phosphorus pentafluoride is a Lewis acid.This property is relevant to its ready hydrolysis. A well studied adduct is PF 5 with pyridine.With primary and secondary amines, the adducts convert readily to dimeric amido-bridged derivatives with the formula [PF 4 (NR 2)] 2.

  3. Trigonal bipyramidal molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigonal_bipyramidal...

    In chemistry, a trigonal bipyramid formation is a molecular geometry with one atom at the center and 5 more atoms at the corners of a triangular bipyramid. [1] This is one geometry for which the bond angles surrounding the central atom are not identical (see also pentagonal bipyramid), because there is no geometrical arrangement with five terminal atoms in equivalent positions.

  4. Phosphorus halide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphorus_halide

    In the gas phase the phosphorus pentahalides have trigonal bipyramidal molecular geometry as explained by VSEPR theory.. Phosphorus pentafluoride is a relatively inert gas, notable as a mild Lewis acid and a fluoride ion acceptor.

  5. Trigonal pyramidal molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigonal_pyramidal...

    In chemistry, a trigonal pyramid is a molecular geometry with one atom at the apex and three atoms at the corners of a trigonal base, resembling a tetrahedron (not to be confused with the tetrahedral geometry).

  6. Pentagonal bipyramidal molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentagonal_bipyramidal...

    Structure of iodine heptafluoride, an example of a molecule with the pentagonal-bipyramidal coordination geometry.. In chemistry, a pentagonal bipyramid is a molecular geometry with one atom at the centre with seven ligands at the corners of a pentagonal bipyramid.

  7. Chemical polarity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_polarity

    When comparing a polar and nonpolar molecule with similar molar masses, the polar molecule in general has a higher boiling point, because the dipole–dipole interaction between polar molecules results in stronger intermolecular attractions. One common form of polar interaction is the hydrogen bond, which is also

  8. Perfluorinated compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perfluorinated_compound

    Pentafluorophenol, a perfluorinated compound.. A perfluorinated compound (PFC) or perfluoro compound is an organofluorine compound that lacks C-H bonds. Many perfluorinated compounds have properties that are quite different from their C-H containing analogues.

  9. Hypervalent molecule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypervalent_molecule

    In chemistry, a hypervalent molecule (the phenomenon is sometimes colloquially known as expanded octet) is a molecule that contains one or more main group elements apparently bearing more than eight electrons in their valence shells.
