Chapter 5 Problem 101AQP

Question

Draw the electron-dot formula for each of the following: (5.5)a. Cl2Ob. CF4c. H2NOH (N is the central atom)d. H2CCCl2

Solution

Solution 101 AQP:Here we have to draw the electron-dot formula for each of the following. Step-1a. Cl2OIn order to draw the Lewis structure we have to calculate the total number of valence electrons present in it.Electronic configuration of 17Cl [Ne] 3s2 3p5 8O 1s2 2s2 2p4Total number of valence electrons = 2(7 ) + 6 = 20Thus the Lewis structure will be, Step-2b. CF4In order to draw the Lewis structure we have to calculate the total number of valence electrons present in it.Electronic configuration o
