1.	The platinum-chlorine distance has been found to be2.32Å in several crystalline compounds This value applies to both compounds A and B given here Based on the above structures, answer the following questions The C-C single-bond distnaance is 1.54 Å What is the distance between the terminal carbons is propane ? Assume that the four bonds of any carbon atoms arre pointed towards the corners of a reqular tetrahedron .
Answer» `3.08Å` `1.54Å` `2.52Å` `1.26Å` Solution :BOND in propane = `109^(@)20` Distance between two terminal C-atoms `=2x` `:. X =1.54 SIN ((109^(@)28')/(2))` ` = 1.26 Å` .
