Explain all about the bent rule ,?

Question

Give its applications in inorganic chemistry ?

Answer 1

Bent's rule, which concerns orbital hybridisation of chemical bonds, was stated in 1961 by the American chemist Henry Bent . Originally, it was expressed as follows:

Atomic s character concentrates in orbitals directed toward electropositive subsituents
In other words, more understandable in terms of p-character of hybridized bonds:

A central atom tends to direct hybrids of higher p character toward more electronegative substituents

Answer 2

see here
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bent%27s_rule\

Bent's Rule
Bent's Rule states that an atom directs hybrids of greater p character toward more electronegative atoms (1,2). For example, look at the results for methanol. In the Best Lewis Structure section you will find the following:
Hybridization in the Best Lewis Structure
1. A bonding orbital for C1-O2 with 1.9982 electrons
__has 33.65% C 1 character in a s0.95 p3 hybrid
__has 66.35% O 2 character in a sp2.53 hybrid

The carbon atom uses an s0.95p3 hybrid orbital to bond to oxygen. On the other hand, the oxygen atom uses an sp2.53 hybrid to bond to the carbon. Therefore, the carbon uses more p character in its hybrid than the oxygen does.

basically bent's rule is discussed in inorganic chemistry

Answer 3

A central atom tends to direct hybrids of higher p character toward more electronegative substituents

Answer 4

I have a buddy who applied for a medical marijuana license when he had nothing wrong with him
