Question

1A2: Define electron pair domain (EPD), count EPDS on building blocks, and use EPD knowledge to determine 3D geometry and
bond angles of a tetrahedral, trigonal planar, linear building block.
For the indicated atoms (look for the arrows) in each of the given structures: (a) state how many EPDs are present; (b) Label tetrahedral
atoms with "TET," trigonal planar atoms with "TP," and linear atoms with "LIN;" (c) Identify one (1) indicated atom in each structure
for which resonance structures bring a change in the number of EPDs from 4++3/3+4 or 3+2/2+3. A resonance structure must be
reported to justify your reported EPD changes.

Expert Solution

Step 1

Electron Pair Domain (EPD):

EPD is the total number of lone pairs and bond pairs around a particular atom in a molecule.
