Draw the Lewis structure for CO with an arrow representing the dipole moment. Use Figure 9.10 to estimate the percent ionic character of the CO bond.

ANSWER:

Problem 57EDraw the Lewis structure for CO with an arrow representing the dipole moment. UseFigure 9.10 to estimate the percent ionic character of the CO bond. Step by step solutionStep 1 of 2Lewis structure of CO:Carbon has four valence electrons and oxygen has six valence electrons. If only one bond wereto be formed between carbon and oxygen atoms, carbon would have five electrons and oxygenwould have seven electrons.The single bond between these two atoms is not sufficient to lead to an octet on each atom . Tocomplete the octet of each atom in CO, we must employ a triple bond .A triple bond is formed bythe six electrons sharing between these two atoms and it is shown as follows.\nThe Lewis structure of CO with an arrow representing the dipole moment.The arrow towards anoxygen atom it represents is a highly electronegative atom.
