Type of hybridization, electronegativity differences, molecular geometry, type of intermolecular force and formal charge of distilled water and NaCl.

Answer 1

Distilled water (H2O):
- Hybridization: sp3
- Electronegativity difference: 1.4
- Molecular geometry: bent
- Intermolecular force: hydrogen bonding
- Formal charge: oxygen has a formal charge of -1, while each hydrogen has a formal charge of +1

NaCl:
- Hybridization: There is no hybridization as NaCl does not have covalent bonds
- Electronegativity difference: 2.1
- Molecular geometry: NaCl exists as a crystal lattice, not as a discrete molecule, so molecular geometry is not applicable
- Intermolecular force: ion-ion interactions
- Formal charge: Na+ has a formal charge of +1 and Cl- has a formal charge of -1.
