### Lewis Structure of Ozone (O₃) - Educational Resource**Consider the Lewis structure for ozone (O₃) proposed by a student in General Chemistry:**Which of the following statements about this structure is/are correct?![Lewis Structure of Ozone](data:image/jpeg;base64), where:- Each oxygen atom (O) is represented with surrounding dots indicating lone pairs of electrons.- The structure shows a double bond (=) and a single bond (-) between the oxygen atoms.- Each bond involves shared pairs of electrons between the oxygen atoms.**Select the correct statement(s):**1. **There are a total of 6 lone pairs in the Lewis structure shown.**2. **The double bond in ozone would be harder to break than the single bond.**3. **This Lewis structure would predict that ozone has two different bond lengths.**4. **All above****Explanation:**- **Lone Pairs**: In the given structure, each oxygen molecule appears to have lone pairs of electrons indicated as dots surrounding the atoms. The clarification of 6 lone pairs in total can be analyzed by counting the electron pairs. - **Bond Strength**: Generally, a double bond involves more electron sharing than a single bond, implying it requires more energy to break, therefore making it harder to break than the single bond in ozone.- **Bond Lengths**: The structure drawn suggests that ozone should have one shorter (double bond) and one longer (single bond) bond length. However, experimentally, it is known that ozone has equivalent bond lengths due to resonance structures.- **Option "All above"** encompasses all previously mentioned statements and considers them collectively true.Choose your option, make notes of explanations, and engage in further discussion to thoroughly understand the bond characteristics and electron distribution in ozone. ### Electronegativity Order Quiz**Question:**Arrange the following elements in order of increasing electronegativity.**Options:**1. \( \mathrm{I < Br < Cl < F} \)2. \( \mathrm{F < Br < Cl < I} \)3. \( \mathrm{I < Br < F < Cl} \)4. \( \mathrm{I < Cl < Br < F} \)**Instructions:**Select the correct order from the given options.**Explanation:**Electronegativity is a measure of the tendency of an atom to attract a bonding pair of electrons. In the context of the periodic table, electronegativity generally increases across a period and decreases down a group. When comparing elements:- Fluorine (\( \mathrm{F} \)) has the highest electronegativity.- Chlorine (\( \mathrm{Cl} \)) follows Fluorine.- Bromine (\( \mathrm{Br} \)) comes next.- Iodine (\( \mathrm{I} \)) has the lowest electronegativity among these elements.Consider these trends in answering the question above. Select the option that correctly reflects the order of increasing electronegativity.
