Electron Transfer Energetics:
P(g) + 1e- → P-1(g)
1st Electron Affinity = -72 kJ/mol
P-1(g) + 1e- → P-2(g)
2nd Electron Affinity = +150 kJ/mol
P-2
3rd Electron Affinity = +578 kJ/mol

Lewis Dot Structures:
Draw the Lewis dot structure for the substances below:
• CH3N3
Predict the N-N-N bond angle
• POCl3
Predict the Cl-P-Cl bond angle
How would the H-N-H bond angle change in the reaction below?
NH3 + H+ → NH4+
Practice Problems:
Urea (CH4N2O), a common fertilizer, can be synthesized by the reaction of
ammonia (NH3) with carbon dioxide.
2 NH3(aq) + CO2(aq)
CH4N2O(aq) + H2O(l)
An industrial synthesis of urea begins with 35.8 kg of ammonia and 89 kg of
carbon dioxide. What is the maximum mass of urea could theoretically be
produced from this starting mixture?
Combustion Analysis:
Caffeine, a stimulant found in coffee, tea, and certain soft drinks,
contains C, H, O, and N. Combustion of 1.000 mg of caffeine
produces 1.813 mg CO2, 0.4639 mg H2O, and 0.2885 mg N2. Based
on this analysis, determine the empirical formula of caffeine.
