For the central carbon atom: The number of lone pairs The number of single bonds The number of double bonds= 2. The central carbon atom î A. Obeys the octet rule B. Has an incomplete octet. C. Has an expanded octet. = | =
1. Neatly draw the Lewis dot structure. (Must be hand-drawn and very neat) 2. Count and report the number of electron regions around the center atom. 3. Neatly draw the molecule. Include lone pair electrons and use wedges and dotted lines as needed. 4. Report the "electronic geometry" and the "molecular geometry" names. Molecule #1: 13 (note that this -1 anion has one more additional electron) Molecule #2: NH3
Which statement A-D about VSEPR theory is not correct? Select one: a. The molecular shape or geometry can differ from the electron-pair geometry. b. In VSEPR theory, the shape or geometry of a molecule is determined by electron-electron repulsion. c. The steric number of a central atom is the sum of the number of bonded atoms and lone pairs around the central atom. d. The steric number has five values from 2 to 6. e. Statements A-D are all correct. Clear my choice
Please note that "geometry" refers to the molecular or ionic geometry. H-N-H A. The Lewis diagram for NH3 is: The electron-pair geometry around the N atom in NH3 is There are lone pair(s) around the central atom, so the geometry of NH3 is B. The Lewis diagram for AsO2 is: Recall that for predicting geometry, double and triple bonds count as only one electron pair. The electron-pair geometry around the As atom in Aso2 is There are lone pair(s) around the central atom, so the geometry of AsO2 is Submit Answer Retry Entire Group 9 more group attempts remaining Previous Next Email Instructor Save and Exit Cengage Learning | Cengage Technical Support
